I saw a story about some country singer's wife (Jason Aldean) who was getting rid of all her Bal stuff. Throwing it away? She's making a statement and she obviously has plenty of money but I can't see it. I suspect she may be some sort of "influencer" interested in her own online rep.

Brittany Aldean is a nasty piece of work. But she'll do about anything to get her name in the media

Happy Thursday, fellow Islanders! :wave:

The current justifiable furor concerning Balenciaga‘s recent misguided and egregious ad campaign is well known here on TPF.

That being said, the onus should rest squarely on the shoulders of those directly involved in the scandal and not on the Bal bags collected either recently or over the years by any number of our fellow Islanders.

Ultimately the choice to wear or not to wear your beautiful Bals during the current uproar (of which none of you here had any part in) is strictly your decision.

Just as it was my decision to keep my Dooneys even after when Frank Bourke of Dooney and Bourke fame was convicted of conspiracy and bribery in 2009.

Then again, given my family’s notoriety in our County, I learned long ago that I’m the only one responsible for my actions and not those of my infamous relatives.

Thank you. I've missed everyone. I got badly hacked across my platforms and got completely off social media for awhile.
Then I had some family issues and was a little depressed.
But I'm back now.
Brittany Aldean is a Trumper. And loudly anti LGBTQ. Not worth repeating some of her statements. She's pretending to be socially aware with the Bal thing as her stupid comments have affected her husbands concert ticket sales. She's a twit.

Perfectly put! :ghi5:

I am genuinely worried anyone carrying a Bal (that likely predates this controversy by decades) will be harassed in public because so many are turning their anger towards customers instead of the creatives. :hrmm:
