Friendship and Hermes

[showgratitude]

Hi ladies... I need some advice.
I’ve had a friend for 2 years. She is an extremely brand and status conscious person. But I still hung out with her (at work) as she is a team mate.
I was recently looking at her IG and realised that she carries a fake croc Birkin and fake Kelly, and passed it off as real (probably for the sake of flaunting on Instagram).
I actually got quite upset and affected by it.
What should I do? Have you been in a similar situation before? As a very loyal H lover myself, I feel that it is so awkward yet I should not feel shy about calling it out. I can’t see her in a good light anymore. :/

I would do nothing. Unless of course she personally asks for my opinion regarding her bag.....then I would tell her the truth in a polite way. Think of it this way: If she knowingly has a fake croc Birkin and has been claiming that it's real and is flaunting it in online, you should know that she has some serious issues. That alone would make me feel bad for her rather than be jealous or envious of her.

This is sort of off topic, but about Hermes and friendship. I have an extremely wealthy friend who thinks it borders on immoral to spend large amount on Hermes or any bag. When we are together I carry some other bag. Some may think I am a total weenie, but I love this woman so why bring a bag into the picture?
