Since real python leather bags can easily run a couple thousand dollards, many women choose a snakeskin embossed or stamped version instead. Honestly, unless it's a Carlos Falchi creation or something of the same caliber, it's not really worth it to me.

I suppose the next best thing would be an option like this Fontanelli Stamped ...

The name Prada usually renders mental images of high-end designs, fashionable runways, and maybe even Meryl Streep as Miranda Priestley in The Devil Wears Prada. For me, however, Prada always equals well-made, chic handbags.
