Fergie said it best in her song "Labels or Love," made for the Sex and the City movie:

"Gucci, Fendi, Prada purses, purchasing them finer things

Men they come a dime a dozen, just give me them diamond rings

I'm into a lot of bling, Cadillac, Chanel and Coach

Fellas boast but they can't really handle my female approach"

There's nothing us ladies like more than designer labels. Just thinking of seeing the Coach label on my teeny-tiny wristlet gives me shivers.

But according to KETV in Omaha, Neb., indulging in a little designer might hurt you.

Well, an imitation designer. According to KETV, "Most of the purses look like handbags that cost hundreds or even thousands of dollars. The fakes cost a fraction of the price of the real bags."

Seriously, who among us -- shut up Carrie Bradshaw -- hasn't carried around a fake Louis or a Coach whose "C's" look like "G's."

Here's my solution to beating the feds: eBay.com.

This entry, ending Thursday afternoon, is a gorgeous, pretty, wonderful, sexy (get my point?) chocolate brown and tan hobo bag.

As of Wednesday afternoon, there are no bids, and it's up for $42.99. That's probably less than what you'd pay at one of the designer parties.

Hey sun goddess, how's that tan? For those who love being outdoors but don't want the sun to lighten their hair (I know -- my hair went from a reddish brown to golden in a day) here's an incredibly cheap, sexy Coach hat. Say it with me -- 99 cents, 99 cents, 99 cents, as of Wednesday afternoon.

And for those who love the sexiness of Chanel, here's an amazing light pink logo tote bag. It's a little pricey, at $155 as of Wednesday afternoon, but look at. Just look at that quilted Chanel that would make even Anna Wintour smile.

And the best part about these finds? No jail time or fines included

Even when it's summer, we must keep our necks warm

Now, don't get me wrong, I understand the need for scarves when the snow is pounding down, and you are trying to cover up your entire face as to prevent the brutal wind from drying out your skin.

I even understand the want for scarves when it matches your winter jacket, or your dress, or your sweater...but your tank top? No, I do not understand that.

However, it is a growing trend these days. Search the streets from January to December, and the scarf is ever-present. Finding its way across the Atlantic, I believe the excessive styling with scarves is a European fashion trend that we have begun to implement into our way of life. From the continent where Pashmina scarves are huge.

There, the frequency of men wearing scarves is equal to women, and virtually every open market that exists will offer numerous colors and kinds. Americans have finally caught on. I wish they hadn't.

I understand that the color schemes, the varieties in textures, and the general appeal of the scarf. For example, scarves worn like this is a definite OK.

However, this?

Not so much. Smaller neck scarves are one thing, but the bulk seems to be consistent between the winter season and the summer. All I see is less clothes, more scarf! As far as this fashion statement goes, I vote we abstain.
