Is Michelle Tanner giving Birkin a run for it's money...

Holy Shiz...

I knew there was a reason that I loved to lounge around the house on hangover Saturdays and watch re-run episodes of Full House!  Uncle Jesse?



No.  Well Maybe.  And D.J's boyfriend, Steve was kinda cute too.

Subconsciously I knew that little Michelle Tanner, aka THE OLSEN TWINS would be designers of one of the most insanely expensive handbag collections ever.  It's true, dude!

The Olsen twins make luxury handbags! Let that process for a second.



Enough.

I present to you...

THE ROW 

(How chic is that? Like front row at fashion week.  Smart, dudes.)



THE ROW was established in 2006 by Ashley Olsen and Mary-Kate Olsen. Since its launch, the brand has expanded to include a range of ready-to-wear, eyewear, and handbags. THE ROW reflects a sense of relaxed and timeless elegance, focusing on fine fabrics and the perfect fit. In 2012, The Council of Fashion Designers of America named Ashley and Mary-Kate as Womenswear Designers of The Year. Part of THE ROW’s mission is to support high-end fashion manufacturing in the US.


And what about the handbags?!?!  They're good.  Really good.  Simple and classic and LEATHER. (Sorry Stella, I ain't buyin' faux. No, no.)



However, there is a downfall.  Let's discuss pricing.  Time to sell a kidney, or two, because these bags are pricey!  Not a cool G pricey either.  Their average selling price... wait for it... $2,500.00.  SHUT UP, DUDE.  No, seriously.  Dude.  Throw on tax and we're talking 3 grand.  Time to get a part time job or a kickstarter account, dude.



I'm not going to go on some tangent about how the twins are out of touch with reality and whatnot.  Who am I do say what they should charge? All I know is that the two best B's in the biz -  Barneys and Bergdorf - carry the handbags.  There they are, THE ROW (i like to say it all breathy - "the rrrr-ohhhh" - it's fun.), sitting next to Tom Ford and Saint Laurent.

Way to make it in fashion, dudes!
