It has been a crazy couple of weeks here at StillChic.com and we've been busy making sure that people find out how great renting designer handbags can be. We have had many articles in French publications across Montreal and Quebec, but recently have been beginning to promote our designer purses rental services in English magazines, newspapers and websites. We believe in our service and we want you all to know about it.

We received a mix response from users who left messages following our designer purse rental review on the online website for The Hour. I thought it would be a good idea to address some of the comments we received following the review. Thank you to everyone who left us a post.

"Forty bucks to rent a purse? Please, forty dollars a week to buy groceries or anything else more needed." - Heather Lee

Heather, we totally agree with you. You shouldn't be buying designer purses over groceries, nor do we feel that you have to have a designer handbag to be fashionable or trendy. It is completely possible to have your own style without spending a fortune. Our services are catering specifically to people who have a passion for designer handbags. These are women who are constantly buying designer handbags to keep up with changing fashions, but don't actually need to own them. These people, who spend on average $2 000.00 on a designer purse, can simply rent them for a short time and save thousands. They can still maintain their love for designer handbags, but at a much lower cost. You made some valid points and we are definitely going to consider our target audience further. Maybe our target audience should be those who can't afford the high cost of designer purses, but still would like to see what the hype is about.

And yes, the Karl Lagerfeld Naked Chanel Handbag may not be the most practical with its see-through qualities, however, designer handbags are rarely about practicality and more about fashion, trends and styles.

Have something more to say? Leave me a note here. I'd love to discuss these concerns/questions further with you all.
