Thanks ladies
I don't mean to sound like an a** by saying this but she always post picture of her kid and sometimes it get really annoying. Its her prerogative to post whatever she like to post on her IG & I respect that. I even sometimes comment like how cute her boy is. I'm single and no kids so its not my fault can do things or buy things I want. Maybe when time come and be blessed to have a kid of my own my priorities will be different and not to my handbags or "designer good stuff".

I totally understand that it's annoying. I have some friends who still 'have a life' and other who do not. Not good for them or their child.
I get comments like that about my piercings "do you really need any more metal in your face?", "are magnets a problem for you?" (I have 4 small facial piercings)
I don't share tattoo plans with my family anymore, they think it is wasted money and they always worry about what job may not want me because of piercings and tattoos (I'm a stay at home mom atm, but will go back to work this year)
Jealousy - likely...motherhood being depressing? Don't think she would share that many pictures
Most love having a little partner in crime.Maybe it comes across this way because you don't have children, but being obsessed with your child isn't necessarily bad. I have 2 IG accounts, one of them is private and I share only with moms (the other one is fashion). Needless to say more than every second photo involves a kid. It is very natural and healthy for a mother to think of her child as her number one....
Purses are cool, but I would burn all of them and dance around the fire for my son.
I have a lot of people who I am not very close friends with, but "hang out" with always bring up that they are sure my bags are not real. I tell them I only buy at the (fill in store, LV, Coach, MK) so there is no doubt. They then say that they are sure people return fakes to the store all the time and there is no way to tell. Its obnoxious to say the very least. They dont say it in a snotty way, but Its beyond me how so many people cant understand buying from the store=100% authentic.
I NEVER carry my high-end designer goods to work. Now, that includes shoes, clothes, jewellery, handbags, etc. I'm just sick and tired of hearing all the rude comments some strangers and not-so-close co-workers have made on my premier designer goods.
I don't even understand why so many people even care about what others wear and carry!
I mean, I have those items only because I CAN afford them! Quite some time ago, one of peers told me that I'm 'a spoiled child' only because I received a Hermes bag from my parents as my 21st birthday gift 
ARRRGH!

I understand what are you saying but motherhood don't give my friend an excuse to be rude or to question my life style.
I'm the same. I've been in dicey situations when I did. But shoes, sometimes. People hardly notice what's on my feet.
I've had coworkers call me materialistic and a label wh*re. Sorry not sorry that I like to invest my hard earned money on things that will actually last me a long time. I used to buy $20-$50 bags and think designer bags were ridiculous until I bought a designer bag when it was on sale with massive discount. I noticed a huge difference in quality and haven't turned back since. The way I see it is that when I use cheap no-name bags, I am always having to buy a new one. With that money I could invest in one or two designer bags every year and keep them for many more years to come whereas the cheap ones just end up in the garbage eventually. My bf's mom also doesn't agree with my spending as much money as I do on premier designer items, but she is okay with contemporary (Dooney is her favorite and she also likes Coach and MK), but even then she freaks out if a bag is over $250. I just don't tell her about my bags and she's also learned to stop asking about them.
I've been labeled as materialistic among many people. It doesn't matter what group of friends I go to, what type of work place. There are very few people in my circles that know of my handbag love that don't care.
It's my money, I don't party, gamble, smoke, or drink. I love to travel and own designer handbags. Basically, I look at it by it's cost per wear. Am I going to wear this for a long, long time? Then it's worth the price tag because it's a bag I can and will carry for years to come.
But even explaining that to some people, their judgement of me will never change. What's worse is if they ask for money or expect me to pay for everything. Some people have thought it's okay to insult or put me down, then ask for money or for me to pay. Sorry but no.
I drop those people out of my life like a hot potato. Don't need that negativity in my life.

I've never been insulted about the bag I'm carrying when I'm out somewhere, but man my mom sure did raise hell when I bought my (only) Chanel and LV a few months back. She even brought it up again several days ago by saying, "I still can't get over you buying those purses. Those bags are for multimillionaires ONLY, not you. You're poor, you had no business buying those bags." 
First of all, this is the first time in my nearly 47 years I've ever owned more than one bag at a time. Secondly, both bags were purchased from Malleries for $1,200 total in like-new condition. For Chanel and LV, that's a STEAL. Oh, and I paid cash for them without anything else suffering. She thinks women should only own one purse that costs no more than $50 -- unless they're multimillionaires -- so I broke two of her 'rules.'

But I wasn't referring to that at all, only the part that she posts many pictures of her son, motherhood an attachment. Not sure why you perceived it this way?
Just describing how a mother feels, not saying she has a right to be rude at all.
