Urban Outfitter's YSL 'Muse' Inspired Bowling Bag

Now this is just sad. The other day I showed you Urban Outfitter's blatant copy of the Chloe Paddington tote, this time 'round it's the YSL 'Muse' they have been 'inspired' by. The two bags look so similar it's almost tricky to remember which is which, but on the left is the YSL version, for $1,195, and on the right is Urban Outfitter's 'Pebbled Bowling Bag', for $58. Again, this is made from vinyl, so I'd be surprised if it lasted you longer than a season.

(Of course, you may not carry this look for longer than a season, in my opinion, so it may very well be worth it. Only you can decide.)

This article highlights something I have always wondered about. What is the line between a replica (an out and out copy) and a designer inspired bag that looks so much like the original that it is virtually indistinguishable?
