Big Bad Bag trend are staying at the F/W 2007-2008

OK! I get it, not only that they are definitely here to stay, but they are growing BIGGER!
well, some are big, but some are hmmm... too big?
I'm a lover of big bags and have no objection with the trend of big bags, but honestly, do the designers know when big is getting to be too big?
i LOVE how they look on the runway, but i'm not sure about some of them carried on the streets by real people.
Pics are took from the runway pics, i don't know the retails price of these bags for now.

Chanel "Rock and Chain"

Okay, after the coco cabas craves, i think i'm officially in love with the new chanel :p
Although i like chanel bags, all the classic ones too, but i never thought like i'm a person who wear chanels.
Lately though, they've been designing bags that really anwer my questions and doubt, i'm ready to jump over to chanel side, but unfortunately not my bank account :)

Anya Hindmarch "i'm not a plastic bag"

Ok, this is officially the cheapest designer bag EVER only for £5.
This bag became an instant hit when it came out, a simple canvas bag with a simple writing.
This also proves that to become an "IT" bag doesn't have to be a sky rocket high price :p and i do really hope lots of designers out there will follow her lead adn produce some "affordable" bags and maybe we can afford their designs without having to starve to death.
