I agree with you. Confidence is the key unless a group of people are targeting you.
And for OP there is nothing wrong being middle aged and wearing monogram bags !
Ever feel like you can't carry your LV somewhere?

That's true
I had worries when I first got my Burberry bag, but once I started carrying it out I didn't even think about it. I'll probably just do that with my LV! Thanks!
Darn those middle aged women and their monogram bags LOL!
OP, I think you need to wear the bag with your head held high, or sell it and buy something you're more comfortable carrying. Yes, I do not carry an LV to certain places...the barn, horse shows, or anyplace that I could be targeted for crime...otherwise I carry it everywhere, even in my small town.

I live in a small college town and I know exactly where you are coming from .. LV is super rare here .. I was super nervous and super careful when I got my first LV in April of last yr .. it was super hard for me to deal with .. I actually sold that LV but this yr while my hubby has been on deployment I have gone LV crazy and I have gotten over the whole thing and I carry my bag everywhere and I don't care what people say or whatever cause my bills are paid my child is more then taken care of and we all deserve nice things if we can afford them so I say don't worry about the other and rock your LV with pride no sense in dropping 1k plus on a bag and worrying what others will say !! Hugs xoxo good luck
I live in a small town in Virginia, and just got my first LV in February. I have been carrying my Speedy DE and I don't think most people here even know that it is LV. I have a Neverfull in monogram but I haven't carried it yet. Most of my SLGs are monogram and I have been using them as well.
Sometimes when I go back to my hometown I get stares but it's just that there's no LV within my province! So yeah sometimes it awkward but I get over it pretty quick and I usually get tons of comments and compliments on whatever I'm carrying!!
I completely understand your feeling. People at work are harder to deal with than just strangers on the street. My coworkers give me flack all the time about my love for designer things... one of them, after a year of hating, has started to copy my style
It's weird, I'm comfortable carrying a Burberry haymarket check but I guess since it's my first LV I'm a little nervous!
I hope you know that I meant no harm when I mentioned middle aged women with monogram. My apologies if it offended you or anyone in any way. My mom was a middle aged woman who carried nothing but monogram LVs. DE might be more my style, but I don't think badly of anyone who thinks otherwise!
I only mentioned it to say that that's what we usually see around here
There is no LV close by here either so maybe that's what it is! The closest LV is 3-4 hour drive away
I guess I don't see DE as that conspicuous because even when I wasn't familiar with any designer stuff, I was familiar with DE canvas
