Does anyone feel like VCA is everywhere now?

Is this the sort of west coasty shopping center? I’ve stopped there a few times, usually to pick up housewares and it looks interesting, rarely see any people. I assume because of the off time or the area I go to, which has only been house things. Picked up some amazing steals a few years ago when it looked like dwr was closing because they were selling everything at huge discounts. Will have to check it out
I think we are thinking about different shopping centers. The Americana isn’t exactly known for bargains LOL

If you go to the Apple-end of the Americana you wont see anyone (though they did put a Real Real over there). All the people are on the Gucci-end, you dont see anyone past Sephora.

Ah, thanks. That makes sense. I’ve only been a few times as a good way to pickup orders in the car and have never been to the main part. I do very little in person shopping and find what I need in the city or EH village depending so I’ve only been a couple of times to the specific area worth the furniture stores I was looking for and once to pick up at Crate & Barrel which I don’t remember where it was but think wasn’t crowded.

Lol Crate & Barrel is never crowded. Its been there many years and I have no idea how it stays open. It’s so funny how one side os always so packed and the other end is crickets.

There is a VCA at London Jewelers there (there is also a Cartier boutique, and London has Bulgari, too). Sometimes I will walk in and see something unusual so it’s always worth a look.

If you see it everywhere on social media, then it is because of the “algorithm” used to bombard you with things you are interested in. In real life, I rarely see it.
My husband and I had this conversation tonight before I saw this thread. I told him I feel like VCA is everywhere now. He said, “that’s because you’re on social media. We don’t really see it in our everyday life.”

It is more common now in my area than it was last year, but every time I see vca, it’s on instagram and not irl.
 
You’re wearing it the right way. The H is intended to face the body for easy access to the bag’s compartments.
It’s always tickle me when people say the Evelyn is too obviously Hermes because that instantly tells me they’re seeing it worn the wrong way.
I don't know where this weird urban legend was started, but the H is most definitely NOT supposed to be on the inside. Here is a picture directly from the H site, and every mannequin that was wearing it on RTW in 2021 at FSH also had it on the outside. https://www.hermes.com/us/en/product/evelyne-iii-29-bag-H056277CK89/
