Another blog has covered this amazing story - A like minded obesssion with classic carpeting led the designers from German brand, A Kind of Guise to buy 50 or so rugs while traveling the Persian Gulf on vacation, and turn them into almost 100 satchels.

Winner Winner...

... Balenciaga Dinner ...
Shopping for me is not about accumulating more or nicer things. It's about the hunt. I take the following things into consideration: how much is it worth, how much will I pay, how hard did I have to look, how rare is the find. This isn't to say I don't like a good ol' GAP attack - easy, fruitful and common - but my favorite pieces, the ones I cherish most were expensive to someone, cheap for me, in the corner or crazy basement and have never/will never see again.

Or in the case of the Balenciaga below, it's worth a bundle, I paid $20 at a women's shelter, then twice that to have it repaired, plus I have been eyeing the real deal for a lifetime. Chalk that up to a major score!
