Oh where to begin...:nogood:there are many that I am not too keen on :nono: I agree with many of you in regards to the LV Damier line, also I really do not like their "limited addition prints I.E cherries" I feel that it just looks tacky (of a lack of a better word) Also I do not understand the fascination with Celine bags to me they look like a "robot face" ...but most of all I can not stand a bag that will eventually make its way to the sale section...have never bought a bag that might I wouldn't be able to forgive myself! I will Only buy bags that will appreciate in value! :love:

Hmmm....I'm open to a LOT of different brands now. But I probably won't carry...

Michael Kors

Louis Vuitton brown/tan monograms (I love their Epi line, though!)

anything overly "signatured"

Oh! And Longchamp. Never, ever Longchamp.

wow, so much dislike for LV.

I'm not surprised, I felt the same way few years ago. next thing you know, I have 6. so I can't blame you guys for disliking LV. I had the same reasoning before. (too much logo, tacky, too many fakes around, too common, overpriced).

until I saw a youtube video of a delightful reveal and I felt so happy for her that I wanted a delightful too. and I realized I could buy 1 LV by selling all my contemporary bags. and there you have it, I now can't bring myself to buy anything else but LV.

Michael Kors, mostly because his name is too prominently displayed on his bags, for my tastes, whether it's stamped on the side of the bag, or his initials made into a medallion doohickey. I dislike feeling like a mobile advertisement.

One factor is the customer service, which can be store specific. At the mall I shop at, the last time I was in Burberry, an associate followed me around like I was going to steal something (stayed a few steps back without ever asking if I had any questions). Granted, I realize I look young, but I was carrying a Dolce & Gabbana bag. I get paid absolutely no attention at Gucci at the same mall as well. I don't buy anything from these stores because I don't like for them to profit off of me.

I try to be conscientious of the manufacturing process as well. If the company has known issues with treating their employees properly and properly sourcing materials, I'll avoid them. I purchase high-end lines with the expectation that they are well-crafted. I don't see the point in paying a premium if this is not the case. Whether it be made in Italy, the US, or China, there ought to be attention to detail on multiple levels.

So long as the company/store fits these requirements, I buy what I like. I've avoided certain lines in the past until something wound up catching my eye. I don't make exclusions anymore solely based on aesthetics of a line because I know one day they'll probably release a bag I like. I don't want to say, oh, I'd never buy XYZ brand because it will inevitably change and I'll be eating my words.

Michael Kors, and LV. Too much logo prominence- although for some reason I am currently absolutely obsessed with the Almas. They are everything I hate. Huge, patent, LV... monogram everywhere- but I inexplicably want one so badly!

I don't like Coach either. Not sure why.

And I am starting to get supremely annoyed at the terrible quality and service of Prada!!
