Designer Brands You Will Never Buy

Absolutely not:
1. Anything monogrammed
2. This may sound odd, but anything by a brand that is better known for something else. I.e., I wouldn't buy a DVF, Jimmy Choo bag, etc.

Never say never, but not likely:

1. Judith Leiber or other clutch brands. I just don't like clutches.
2. Bottega Veneta. Most of them are so boring.
3. Michael Kors, though there are a handful that I like.
4. Tory Burch. I've heard too many bad things about the quality.
5. Any nylon bag, including longchamp, kate spade, and prada. Would consider other bags by those brands, however.
6. Prada. I've never seen anything that I loved or even really liked.
7. Balenciaga. The city's nice, but a bit boring for me. I like the ones with rose gold hardware, though.
8. Gucci.
9. Coach. I've tried looking at their non-monogrammed ones, but I just can't bring myself to buy one.
10. Dooney & Bourke.
11. Chloe.
12. Juicy Couture.
13. Dior.

That's all I can think of for now :)
 
Rebecca minkoff - had a few - very cheaply made

Valentino - sticking with shoes - the bag I had was cheaply made

Burberry - love the clothing and accessories but not the bags

Kate spade - not a fan of the chains - just looks like knockoff Chanel to me

Coach - will buy boots but not bags

Jimmy choo - love the shoes, not the bags

Christian louboutin - same as above
 
For me as of now... is kate spade... even thou i like ribbon style and some of ks have a nice ribbon style however is just do not have any urge to buy them... and the colour very hard to match w my clothes...

But who knws when ks decided to change the way the brand is... i might consider... jus like coach... recently find their bags very attractive... :)
 
I was gonna say Fendi, because I just do not like the look of the brand's bags. But a couple days ago, I saw the most gorgeous pebbled leather duffle bag (it was listed in a flash sale at Reebonz, so i can't link to it now). And I think that may just be my first.

Was also going to say Proenza Schouler (am not paying thousands for what I essentially think is a contemporary brand), but hey, I bit the bullet and bought a PS1 ;)

I so I guess it's really "never say never" for me!
 
Designers that have never once appealed to me: Gucci, Prada, PS, Juicy, L.A.M.B.

Also I will not carry anything covered in logos, whether it is LV, Dooney, Coach or anything else. I just think it looks universally ugly.

And the most classic bag of all time if you ask most people, the Chanel -- just doesn't appeal to me at all. It looks like an old lady bag to me. I just picture a rich humorless woman in her 60s or above in a Chanel suit with the flap bag... which doesn't even really look right on her because in a way it also looks like a little girl bag to me. Just one that only an older woman would carry. *ducks*
 
Tory Burch- Her logo annoys me. I don't know why, but I cringe every time I see her flats with that big ugly thing on them.

Dooney and Bourke- I remember when they had the cow print bag. I can't get over that. I also really dislike their Disney bags. Grown women should not be wearing Mickey Mouse outside the confines of Disney land or world.
 
Gucci - for some reason I find them stiff and unfriendly
Burberry - although this is my DH favorite brand I just feel its boring and I hate the materials their bags are made from
Tory burch - love the flats, HATE the bags
 
Micheal kors, some of the bags are pretty but the quality is seriously so crappy
Burberry, I adooore the look of Burberry but I am not dropping $800-$2000 on a bag that's poor quality, I have a burberry check tote & seriously it is not worth the $700 price tag on it the handles are peeling and the canvas & trim is cheap
Longchamp, I don't get the new trend with these ugly bags?
Lv - it's too common too many fakes when I see one I just assume its fake where it is or not
Juicy couture, Unless your 10 or under please don't carry juicy
Dooney & bourke this brand is soo dated.
 
Tory Burch- Her logo annoys me. I don't know why, but I cringe every time I see her flats with that big ugly thing on them.

Dooney and Bourke- I remember when they had the cow print bag. I can't get over that. I also really dislike their Disney bags. Grown women should not be wearing Mickey Mouse outside the confines of Disney land or world.

Oh wow! I thought it was just me! What is it about that Tory Burch logo that makes me want to scowl every single time I see it? Especially on those flats!! LOL!

I don't have a problem with D&B as a brand, but I do agree about both the bags you mentioned. No to cow print and Disney.
