Need a Great Gift for Your Daughter's Sweet Sixteen? Try a Designer Purse!

If you're the parent or grandparent of a young lady who's approaching her sweet sixteen, then you definitely need a great gift! Sixteen-year-old girls aren't content with Barbie dolls anymore -- they're ready for more grown up presents! Clothes and cash are always well received, but if you're looking for something a little more special, then why not get a designer purse?

I remember when I turned sixteen, my mother presented me with an Etienne Aigner purse similar to the one she'd always carried. After tearing through the paper and opening the box, I happily discovered my gorgeous new leather Aigner bag! Almost fifteen years later, I still have my Aigner bag, and it's held up quite well! While Aigner is considered a designer purse, it's definitely on the lower end of the spectrum when it comes to price.

Designers like Gucci, Prada, Fendi, Louis Vuitton, and many others offer extravagantly priced handbags that probably cost more than my first car! However, if you want a designer purse that is beautiful, trendy, and crafted by masters from the finest materials, you can't go wrong with one of these bags. Can you imagine the look on your teenager's face when she discovers that her new designer purse is the same one her favorite actress carries?

You may not feel comfortable purchasing your sixteen year old a designer purse that costs hundreds or even thousands of dollars. And I don't blame you! Teenagers aren't always the most responsible people...I'm not knocking them, but we all know that a distracted teen girl may accidentally leave her bag vulnerable to theft while chatting with a friend. I know I had a few purses swiped due to my own carelessness when I was a teenager! Because these bags are so expensive, thieves are especially attracted to them.

So, what's a parent to do? How about a designer purse that's not exactly designer? My teen sister was given a Louis Vuitton purse as a gift last Christmas, or at least what appeared to be one. Turns out her purse was a fake. I didn't figure our Aunt Doris could afford a $2000 handbag! Regardless of the fact, my sister carries her “Louis” with great pride. Honestly, it really does look like the real thing and could easily fool a classroom full of teen girls! My sister is now the envy of her friends, thanks to her “designer” purse!
