Bags and the City

[Sanguar]

I work in SoHo, so I see everything. LV, Gucci, Prada, Chloe, Balenciaga (all the time!!)... Hermes every now and then

Oh yeah, of course Coach is EVERYWHERE.

NOT HERE

Here in Finland coach bags are rather unknown. I've only seen one of them. Coach has to get a store in Helsinki

Mostly here I see LV's, Mulberry's and Burberrys's (real and fake)

Upstate NY, I see a lot of Coach and fake everything, it's really sad. Last night I saw about 10 girls with fake Cambon totes.

I'm in a college town, and we have quite a bit of variety. The students carry a lot of the small Coach bags out at night (I think these are mostly the sorority girls), but I will see the occasional student with a Kooba or something else that I recognize.

My fellow professors usually are carrying nondesigner, practical bags. I've had students complement me on my clothes and bags, usually when I carry one of my stams or MJ stellas.

 

[QuirkyCool]

People wear practical,nondescript bags and bags that can be worn on a bicycle in this city.
I never see designer bags other than my own.

Many teenage girls wear fake Luis Vuitton.:worried:

If I were ever to see a good bag,I would know that it is a tourist or other foreigner...

 

[Buttery]

Laurel, MD...

I see a lot of LV (real and fake) and a lot of Coach.

In Chicago, I'd say there's a good mix of everything, but most often I see a lot of LV, Gucci and Prada. LOTS of Coach. Some Fendi. I have only seen a few Balenciagas here ever.

 

[Serendipity]

In the NY/NJ area there seems to be just about every type of handbag there is....but these days, I'm seeing a lot of balenciagas...or maybe i'm just noticing them more ever since my sister got one.

I agree. B-bags are big in Short Hills.

 

[LVgirly]

Mostly real and fake LV, Gucci and Chanel. I rare see Coach or Dior as there are no Coach stores and Dior is not sold here.

 

[Chanel4me83]

Here in El Paso, Tx you see Alot of dooney, coach, and the worst Fake LV.

 

[SuLi]

Im in the DC area, in the burbs I see a LOT of Coach, I also see LV, Gucci, and D&B. Across the street from my office is a very nice mall with Neimans Saks, Chanel, Coach. Down the street are LV Gucci and Hermes stores. If you go shopping you see a lot of everything...but out and about it's mostly Coach, LV, D&B and Gucci.

I have to add that I see a lot of Longchamp and Vera Bradley totes while on the Metro everyday.

One day I saw a girl with a Chloe Paddington. I wanted to compliment her on her bag, but didn't have the guts. I usually carry a Marc Jacobs bag; feels unique!

In Edmonton, AB Canada:
I see a lot of LV--and a lot of fake ones. Burberry is popular too. I'm starting to see more Balenciaga, since we have them available here now! Fakes of those abound as well, unfortunately. Marc Jacobs is getting to be more popular, and today, I actually saw someone carrying an Hermes. (Looked real!)

 

[Ammietwist]

In my part of Atlanta, there's the odd LV, but it's almost always a Speedy. It's rare to see anything else, and I like that since I spent big buckaroos on a Babylone. Coach and D&B are the predominant brands you see, and I've also spotted a VERY rare KVZ (on sale constantly at the local stores). Kooba and those with a similar style seem to be everywhere. What I've really noticed are a ton of slouchy hobos with beads and such all over them. I really can't wait for that trend to die a miserable death. Oh yeah, and Vera Bradley is definitely popular.
