First real life RM Sighting! Was it you?

starfest · May 6th, 2008, 02:51 AM

Have any of you guys ever approached someone because they were carrying an RM bag?? If so, share your stories!

This is what happened to me today in downtown TORONTO:

So I was sitting in the office of my dermatologist, mindlessly flipping through a magazine, and in walks this girl with a GORGEOUS PURPLE NIKKI. I've never seen anyone with a RM here before, so imagine my complete shock! All I could do was ogle at her bag, while contemplating if I should say something to her...I decided against it because it was dead silent in the waiting room and I didn't want to appear as a total creep.

I couldn't help but wonder if she was a tPF member, ARE YOU? This was at Dr.Goldhar's office at York/Adelaide, at around 2-3pm. Wouldn't it be so crazy if this was someone on the forum?

If it's you, please say hi!

This would be a great idea for a general sticky if we have enough sightings. I have not seen any RM bags in the small town I live in except my own, but that would be so neat if we had some pf RM spotting

I have an interesting story. amjac2wm and I actually work for the same company. When she posted her meet and greet pics with Rebecca Minkoff I recognized her and PMd her. What a small world!

I hope you find the mystery purple Nikki!

I just bought my first RM bag last week (the Steady bag in Dusty Silver) and I absolutely love it! I have not seen anyone else with any of her bags around town, but if I did I would definitely approach them!

I have never seen anyone where I live carrying an RM, but I def. would approach them to compliment them if I saw one. It would def. be a shocker though cause there isn't a single store in Columbus that carries RM IRL.

Definitely approach them!! I've never seen anyone with RM, but if I see people around the city with bal bags I *always* say hi. (And have people thinking i'm weird, but hey what are the chances i'll see them again?)

I live in Tampa and saw a woman at International Mall with a fuschia/gold Lex and it was the first RM I had seen in real life. I approached her and asked her all about it and then I asked her if I could touch it! It was a little akward but she was really nice about it and let me touch it. By the way, the Lex doesn't get much talk, but it is really cute.

I don't know if I have enough gumption to go up to anyone, but I would be squealing on the inside!

lolamae · May 6th, 2008, 01:34 PM

i've seen a 5 RM bags in the past 2 months and I said hello and complimented their bags.
4 in Los Angeles
1 in Atlanta

How fun! I have only seen RM bags near me twice over the past year that I have been interested in the bags. They don't sell them around here in the stores (San Francisco) so I am guessing both were TPFers. Next time I see someone with one I am going to ask her if she is on TPF!

The one in Atlanta wasn't a Grey MAM was it? If so it was me!

I've never seen a RM in DC. When I was in NYC, I saw the limited edition patent blue Morning After tote that LunaBoston offered. But that's it!

MJDaisy · May 6th, 2008, 03:37 PM

I am in Northern VA (DC Area) and have not seen any yet IRL besides my own.

So adorable, that Lex does not look much like a talker but boy is she big on looks!
