The fact that counterfeit bags have aided in the funding of terrorist organizations, including those responsible for the attacks on 9-11 is well-known. Dana Thomas, author of "Deluxe: How luxury lost its lustre" delves into the topic at length in her highly regarded book. Those that think it's "hilarious" only show your ignorance on the topic. If you don't think you're hurting anyone, think again. It's not just slave labour anymore (as if that wasn't bad enough).


Should I Be Ashamed of My Furniture Knockoffs?

I used to think Sarah was awesome, until I watched Sarah 101.
I've watched most of the episodes (I live in Toronto) and you'll see that in many of the "cheap refurbish" jobs, Sarah ends up spending triple what a newer item would cost. It's no longer a bargain if you re-work it beyond the point of no return!
Tommy, although in his own right extremely talented, just seems like a "yes man" in this series. Too bad. When I met him at the Interior Design show in Toronto, he was gracious and warm. Sarah (although standing 2 ft away and not talking to anyone) couldn't be bothered to turn her head to say "hi" to a fan.
Too much pattern and too many colours crammed into one episode. But hey, if people get something great out of the show, kudos to Sarah! I heard it's not getting picked up for another season (and imo, not surprising).

The print is called "Horse in Motion Print No. 2" and Plantation sells them online - the smallest print (20 x 30) is about $450. An Etsy photography art search will yield some pretty cool photos of horses.
