One of my friends, A, is oringinally from the Bahamas. She lives with her cousin, D, and we usually see them about once a week. Last week, she went back home, came home for a day, and then went on another vacation. So, when we went over on Friday she wasn't there. She called though, and D hands me the phone to talk to her while he got something out of her room.
D comes out with a 'Coach' scarf, tan and brown, and the second I look at it, I can tell it's fake. I'm glad she wasn't there in person, because she might have been able to tell. She got it for me as a belated birthday gift (it was in March, haha) because she knows I love Coach (when we went to Vegas in March, I paraded her around the outlet twice :shame. I think I sounded good on the phone though, I said thank you a billion times, because seriously, it was so sweet of her. And I'm sure she thinks it's real. Even though she has told me that she can get LV luggage for $40 back home.
When I got off the phone, I think D could tell I thought it wasn't real and he went on and on about how it was and they can get those things cheaper back home. D is a guy who has to be right about everything, so I just smiled and said nothing.
Later when we were leaving, and we talked about coming over next week, D said we MUST come, because A was so excited about getting me the scarf. Then I worried I didn't sound nice and appreciative one the phone, so I MUST wear it a few times around her.
The only problem is, it's huuuuuuuuuuge! I swear, it must be 3 feet by 3 feet or something. I would take a photo, but I left my camera at their house (they have an adorable new kitten I was taking photos of!). It's 'silk' and the khaki/brown mini sig print. I have no clue how to wear it. It's way too big for my hair, and to use it as a belt, I'd have to cut it in half to not be so bulky. Anyone have any other ideas? I'd rather not cut it so I can donate it to goodwill after I wear it a few times. And really, I need to wear it because it was insanely nice of her to see Coach things (even fake) and think of me.
