I hope she didn't know it was a fake and I hope that she wasn't trying to impress her friends by going into the LV store and pretend to decide which bag she would get next. Because then she does deserve to be thrown out and have her bag confiscated.
 
Every other female around here carries a fake LV. A local tanning salon sells them, and these chicks are paying almost $200.00 for them. I don't get it. I am not a fan of LV at all, but definitely not a fam of the fakes. *gag*

When we were in Italy last summer (Ventimiglia-GREAT market!), the Italian police only chased the guys who hadn't paid the town for a licensed stall to sell their fakes out of, they had to keep picking up their sheet by the corners like a hobo and hide! But the french police were stopping everybody at the border and confiscating fakes and issuing fines to people. But only the french license plates we noticed! EU laws are there, but not every place enforces them.
I hope that poor girl gets an education by buying a real one. We all have to live, but only some choose to learn I guess..,

ouch! haha....i've decided to keep all my bags at home while i am in paris...b/c my chanel sa told me that pick pockets take shears and cut the straps on your purse and grab it from you! i would just die to have that happen to any of my babies!

That's a total urban legend... In some rough areas of the suburbs, they might try to open the car door if it isn't locked and take your purse, but I've never heard of people taking shears to bags just to steal them, which is waaaay too obvious when there are 1000s of careless people with open bags, wallets in back pockets and what have you.
 
LOL It rained here today and I saw a woman carrying the most fake fake plastic looking LV into the bookstore today. You know the ones that don't even have the vachetta just that honey colored handles. I busted out laughing. I'm kinda sad it wasn't a better fake so she could get rain spots on it.
 
A girl at school was carrying the most atrocious fake black multicolor pochette- and said her mom got it at Saks! I wanted to grab it off her arm and to give everyone around me a seminar on how to spot a fake.
 
According to a friend that's in security, it IS a common way of stealing bags in busy tourist areas. I was told to never carry anything that could be cut easily.

LMAO...she couldn't possibly know her bag's fake. why would you make an ass out of yourself knowing it is. she probably doesn't even know the name of the bag. how sad.
 
My uncle had his camera around his neck on a train in Italy and had it cut off - he didn't notice a thing!

Oh, had his camera cut off, not his head.

How 100% sure that you know the girl is carrying a fake LV? Did the sales person tell so or is it a guess of your own? If she were to carry fake, why would she be stupid to go to LV mall & be embarassed? She surely knows that. Her friends too.
