Is it ok to use cosmetic pouch as clutch?

I don't base my decisions on what a celebrity does (lol) I wouldn't carry a cosmetics case as a clutch because IT LOOKS LIKE A COSMETICS BAG, it doesnt matter what it's labeled, what matters to me is the shape.

Btw, OP is talking about the rayures case, not the tp26, so your pic of lady Di is irrelevant. If you want to look like you're on your way to the bathroom go right ahead, but *I* wouldn't do it.

The picture is not irrelevant, it is a cosmetic case...it is being used as a purse.

How many women take only their cosmetic case to the restroom? None that I know of...they simply take their whole bag.

Please OP do not listen to jugdemental comments that hinder the way YOU enjoy your bags. To me this kind of unnecessary smirking or rolling of the eyes is the same kind of thing as people saying, "why would you spend that much on a purse" or an other catty remark that omen sadly, tend to make at one another.

As Phanatical points out most people won't know what it is anyway.

Yep. I've carried my Vernis amarante as the colour was perfect for a dress i was wearing to a cocktail party. Nothing wrong with changing things up! BTW the noe was designed to carry champagne and its used as a handbag now ;)

Exactly.

How many 'beach bags' has LV made over the years and most are still just used as purses.

Why is my comment “judgemental”? OP asked for opinions and I gave mine, but I’m not smirking, rolling my eyes or saying “why would you spend that much on a purse” (I don’t know how you came up with that) all I said is that a cosmetics case LOOKS LIKE A COSMETICS CASE!!!

I think you’re getting a little carried away just because you disagree with my opinion :rolleyes: <—ok NOW I’m rolling my eyes at you :laugh:
 
I won't do it myself, cuz the shape is identical to most of the cosmetic pouch's shape. I saw a woman do that with a damier ebene pouch and it honestly looks like it's the cheapest thing and she's using it cause she couldn't get a bag.. I know this sounds judging but that's how people are.

Yes, people do judge.it is a fact.but you gotta be pretty snobby to look down on anybody carrying authentic louis vuitton.seriously.


I really honestly wish I would meet someone who had the nerve to make me feel bad about my luxury items when I'm out on the town.seriously.
As much money as it cost,I think makes up for the fact that it isn't a traditional clutch.


And honestly, what do most women carry in their clutches.a credit card, lip gloss, eyeliner, tissue, keys.some mascara,a little lipstick.
If that isn't cosmetic,I don't know what is!
 
Why not? I seen cosmetic pouches and clutches of all shapes and sizes and there is no distinct way a cosmetic pouch is suppose to look versus a clutch.

They almost serve the same purpose.

I would carry it with pride and look down on people who dares to judge what I do.
 
I have seen many people here on this forum and in youtube videos use their mini pochette accessories to carry their makeup. The point of the mini pochette is not to carry makeup, therefore just because something is titled "cosmetic pouch" doesn't mean you HAVE to use it for solely that. Ive taken some of my cosmetic pouches out before and i get replies like "what a great idea! You get more use out of it!" with that price tag... Go for it girl. Who cares if someone thinks your going to the bathroom? YOU know your not!
