I told someone today, "I love your empreinte bag," and

[mrsinsyder]

she remarked, "oh, excuse me, it's Louis Vuitton."

I know empreinte is terminology the average customer wouldn't use, but I knew my TPF folks would find it funny. I said it because I couldn't remember the actual bag name, but it was the Montaigne. It looked lovely on her!

Hahahahha....that so cute of her.....lol

Hehe! And that is such a pretty bag! She has some pretty good taste!

It is. Canvas bags are a dime-a-dozen here, but leather LVs are rarely seen.

 

[Ilovehellokt]

Did you explain anything to her？ haha

Lol! that is funny...sometimes i feel like i am talking a whole
other language when discussing LV items haha

Haha, no, just left it at "oh, it's beautiful!"

 

[lvmk]

Haha, no, just left it at "oh, it's beautiful!"

Other than my country club, where I see several LV bags, Louis Vuitton is very rare in my city. Whenever I see any LV bag or SLG around the town, my heart flutters a bit!

Haha. The other day I told a woman that I loved her Delightful and she looked at me like I was crazy. "My WHAT?!". "ER...your bag is called the Delightful." She looked at me like I had two heads.

Haha! I have been in a similar situation. Now I just stick to "I love your Louis" in order to avoid awkward moments. I often forget that non-tpf members also buy LV! 😬

 

[Kylie M]

Priceless 😭

 

[Mimosfriend]

Haha I had a similar thing with a coworker. 'Is that the Emilie wallet?' (I have one too). And she got flustered explains it was LV and was a gift. Haha. I felt like a purse nerd.

 

[4purse]

Very funny!

I know what you mean. You get so used to speaking "Vuittonese" that after a while you forget that you're doing it.

Often, I forget that people outside of TPF don't pay a lot of attention to style names and colors of bags. One of my personal pet peeves is when I see poorly listed items like a Berkeley being listed as a Damier satchel, etc.
