Well, I definitely wasn't upset about the tacky/ghetto comment. I just found it to be funny, and my comment was very tongue-in-cheek. I have always bought, worn, and carried what I like regardless. I own everything from MK and Dooney to
Fendi and Gucci. Hell, I even own a15 y/o LV monogram Pouchette, and at times, I find it tacky. I'll go to Saks with my $99 Dooney and make a beeline to the Gucci bags. It takes ALOT to offend me.
This is a fun place, and I enjoy it. Handbag talk is all frivolous in the grand scheme of things, but I love sharing the frivolity of it all. Some people just take fashion and personal style way too seriously.
I think that MK is polarizing because yes he does copy a lot of popular shapes, silhouettes, and designs from other fashion houses. That can be said for a lot of other fashion houses. Even Target, H&M, and Forever21 get in on the action. I'm just not real sure why he gets singled out so much.
Let's face it. There's really nothing new or innovative in handbag design. The fabrication is the only thing that really changes.
Sorry for the long winded post and back to the topic at hand. Went to the
Nordstrom pre-sale. I would probably never purchase Celine. Just not my thing, and the bags are huge and heavy.
