Saw this 15 year old school girl with a MJ Topaz Stam today....

I have to say I felt gutted. She went to a private school, so I guess she can afford it, but i nearly puked when she had it on the wet grass swinging it around and everything
I'm sure it would've loved me as an owner instead I'd treat her with the respect she deserves.

so sorry

i wish i had a black stam

i can understand how that feels

though i read some girls on the coach board that are 12!!!!

haha my parents would have laughed at me if i asked for a purse at 12

A few weeks ago I saw a school girl with a Sophia. I thought first it was a fake but then she opened it to show her suede interior full of "teenage" stuff ... I know how you feel, believe me ....ush:

That's terrible!

 

[MandB]

Wow. I think that's a bit unnecessary. When I was that age the nicest bag I had was a DB. That was still probably unnecessary, but it wasn't a Stam.

 

[alouette]

Kids these days..definitely aren't the same as when I was younger, that's for sure!

 

[smooches]

At that age I think I had a Guess purse and thats it. I didn't get a Coach bag until college.

Lucky girl.

I see school girls with Stams every day, most look fake though, hell, somebody must be buying all the fake ones on ebay.

When I was in HS, I didn't care a lick about bags - the nicest thing I had was a Nine West bag. It's too bad that she didn't seem to value her Stam. My very first designer bag was a Kate Spade that I saved up for in college with my paltry salary, working a few days in the Dean's Office. I worked so hard for it that I babied the heck out of it.

LOL same here!! I don't think I even knew what designer purses were back then. I feel bad for the poor stam =(

 

[moodysmom10]

oh my gosh! if she's getting a stam at 15, what in the world are they gonna do with her when she is 18...

even if i could afford to buy my daughter a stam @ 15 years old i wouldn't do it...

maybe she could borrow mine, lol, but if i saw her throw it in the wet grass....:boxing:hahaha

 

[girliceclimber]

Wow! I can understand wanting your 15 year old daughter to have nice things, but giving her a stam to take to school where it'll get all grimy (EVEN if your daughter is super careful, school is gross!) is unbelievable!

We should all have a moment of silence for that poor stam!

I've seen several school girls with designer bags. As someone who is not especially careful (dare I say, anal?) with my bags, like the girl you observed, I just have to say that I recognize it's (a) not a precious piece of art, like a De Kooning (b) it's meant to be used, and yes, sometimes can get dirty. I don't think true luxury is something to be worshipped and put on a shelf, but to be enjoyed and used.
