I was talking to someone who told me a certain bag that we saw was so "basic". It wasn't my bag and I actually think the bag is gorgeous but I wonder how much women in the "appreciate a great handbag world" make assumptions about the bags being carried and the person who carries them?
A real example is a friend of mine and I were at our sons basketball camp and one of the coaches is a retired basketball player whose wife had a DE neverfull and her friend had a mono neverfull and my friend made the comment that the one with the mono was more old school with her taste while the coach's wife was obviously trying to show off her wealth. Now this could have been based on how they were dressed and carrying themselves but it made me wonder what people think of others based on their bag.
My favorite LV that I own and get the most mileage from is the totally mm and I carry it everywhere. It just makes me laugh because people think it looks like a diaper bag and I fit the stereotype of it being my mom bag as I have 5 kids and always overstuff it.
