Sex and the City: The Movie Star Kim Cattrall Carries Rebecca Minkoff's Market Tote

Sex and the City star Kim Cattrall carries designer Rebecca Minkoff's "Market Tote" in Sex and the City: The Movie (in theaters now).

New York, NY (PRWEB) June 25, 2008 -- Cattrall's character, Samantha Jones, carries the Market tote in a scene where the girls travel to Mexico. Hand-picked by stylist Patricia Field, who styled the show as well as the movie, the bag's cameo is an exciting new note to an already established career. With celebrity fans such as Hilary Duff, Bijou Phillips, Nicole Richie, Lindsay Lohan, Debra Messing, and Sarah Jessica Parker in her corner, this 27 year-old has made her mark in the fashion scene.

Designing since 2001, Rebecca Minkoff is known for her "it" bags. With a modern-vintage feel, the line is laid back enough for the San Diego girl (where Minkoff is from), yet perfect for the downtown New Yorker, with simple but sexy accents. The bags have made their way into such stores as Saks Fifth Avenue, Nordstrom, Bloomingdale's, Neiman Marcus, Henri Bendel, and Shopbop.com. Minkoff's purses are also carried in over 200 boutiques domestically, as well as in foreign installations in Japan, France, Russia, and Canada.

The tote in the film is a custom-made yellow/silver combination. The solid yellow Market tote will make its debut on the Rebecca Minkoff site this month, as will Noir (black) and Sea Green versions. The Market bag is roomy and features outside pockets for storage. The front pocket is large enough for phones and PDAs. A notable designer, Minkoff plans to venture back into clothing and shoes in upcoming seasons.

I can confidently say that any fashion-lover out there will agree that having your discount designer handbags will NOT only make you look fashionable BUT also confident and appealing.

BUT picking your first discount designer handbags can be a pain. You could easily land with the wrong discount designer handbags if you have no idea where and what exactly to look for.

That's why I'll be spilling down 5 easy-to-apply tips you shouldn't be without when shopping for your discount designer handbags for the first time!

Shopping For Discount Designer Handbags Tip 1 - Select the price range that's right for you. The painful (and expensive) thing about discount designer handbags is that they can suck the life out of your credit card, especially the in-season and latest releases. Research - to be forewarned is to be forearmed! And along with research, go for the price range and stick with it - whether it's as towering as $5000 or as low as $250. Just be practical and don't go for the price range that will break your back.

Shopping For Discount Designer Handbags Tip 2 - Be yourself. Instead of opting for something that's trendy or newly-released, go for the discount designer handbags that YOU like. After all, you'll be the one carrying it in your arm and you're the one who'd shell out cash for it. It's YOUR choice is what matters. Not to mention trends are like bubbles - now you see themnow you don't.

Shopping For Discount Designer Handbags Tip 3 - So you've made up your mind as to the price of your dream discount designer handbags? Excellent! Next thing you MUST keep in mind is go for the discount designer handbags that fit your style. If you're starting from scratch, here are some guidelines about discount designer handbags brands that could help. Coach bags are the less-expensive options over more expensive discount designer handbags. Louis Vuitton handbags are a lot pricier than the rest of the pack. Another discount designer handbag brand - Hermes has a simple design with a classic touch to it. On the other hand, Dolce & Gabbana (D&C) has an edgier style. Now that's just a handful of the big names in the discount designer handbags industry. And I would like to emphasize that research can land you on the handbag style that suits you best.

Shopping For Discount Designer Handbags Tip 4 - Go for discount designer handbags with colors you'll be proud to wear. Picking one with rich and loud colors could make an excellent display on the shelf. HOWEVER, if you don't have the dress to go along with it, it's pointless. Heck! I've seen fashionistas getting bored even the most colorful discount designer handbags after a short time. So take a good look at your clothes and make sure your chosen discount designer handbags will make you look better with them.

Shopping For Discount Designer Handbags Tip 5 - Lastly (but definitely not the least important), go and find other places to buy discount designer handbags apart from the designer's booth. Sticking to the designer's store, you'll find only the latest releases of discount designer handbags that can break your bank account. The internet is a very nice alternative when shopping for discount designer handbags.

There are a lot of online malls and sites that sell GENUINE discount designer handbags from the earlier trends and that means less expensive. Again, researching about the site will help you weed out the golden 'finds' from the rip-off fakes.

No-brainer - that's what these tips may sound like BUT believe methey're like magical when helping me find those perfect discount designer handbags. Not to mention they suit my finances.
