First of all, congrats on your new addition! I think it's lovely (and perfect for summer)!

Re: your acquaintance's comment, I would just ignore her and not bring up the topic of bags with her in the future. That was very rude of her and hopefully she will learn to keep her opinions to herself next time.

Come see my first new bag of the year

They proceeded to say "oh I hate Vernis, why would you buy it, it is ugly" I said I like Vernis and that is why I bought it. They rolled their eyes at me and changed the subject.

We are not good friends so I don't really care what they think. But I just find it totally rude and don't really know what to say. Even if I don't like something someone just bought, I would NEVER tell them I hated it and thought it was ugly. They must have liked it enough to buy it. Why make someone feel bad???

Yes, this person is VERY into bags. So it is not like they don't understand.
VERNIS is beautiful!

... I would just ignore them. People are mean and cruel... it may or may not be jealousy. Be happy with your new purchase and


On a similar note:
I just got the Speedy Azur yesterday. My friend "T" heard from my friend "E" that I got it. I had gone to LV with "T" to LV a few months ago and she mentioned she loved the Speedy in Azur and almost bought it. She has a good job and she can afford it.... yet she still doesn't own any LV and prefers Bal and MBMJ. She asked me today "why" I got it and joked I was a "b*tch" for getting it. I told her the fact that I had it should not stop her... its a freakin Speedy! Everyone has them! Get it if you want it. Judging her from her tone she wasn't convinced.

OMG how could anyone tell you that your Evelyne is ugly... I love that bag. You got such an amazing deal on it. I can't wait to see it IRL. I also just sent you an email telling you who it is, since you know them.

^^ Got it!

This is what I have to say about people with bad manners enough to say rude things: delete, delete, delete!

You know what..those pictures don't do the bag enough justice. I saw someone carrying the vernis bellevue lookalike bag (not too sure what the model was) in that color and it is GORGEOUS in real life. I remember purposely looking back just to eye it one last time because it was THAT beautiful. The vernis line is not my first choice for LV BUT I love it in the perle color and it's hard to find in stores. Everyone has different tastes, but what your friend said was somewhat rude imo seeing how she could've totally told you that it's not quite her taste but if you like it then more power to you, something along those lines. But, as you mentioned she's not even a close friend so let her be..it could be a mix of jealousy or that's just how she is. Find someone else you enjoy shopping with that doesn't have such a mouth on her. I absolutely love how vernis looks in the perle color and honestly like the style.

I wouldn't take it personally, and I don't think it's jealousy... everyone just has different taste and some happen to be more opinionated and vocal about that taste.

Example: My BFF has made it a habit to call my Coach bags old-lady-ish. She hates them. So I've made it a habit to call her horse foot every time she wears her zebra print pumps. I hate those pumps.

Just ignore it... you love it, and I think your bag is lovely too!

Sorry to say it just sounds like jealousy on their part? Some people now days seem to lack even basic manners, IMO it is just rude of your friend.
Tell them it's just as well they won't be carrying it then and leave it at that.
I think your bag collection is amazing!
