You are right. I don’t lack the balls to ask people to explain their behavior to my face.
was just curious, if someone made that face towards my bag I may just ask her was she really interested in my bag :P
I think women we are interested in others clothing bags if we are into bags, like the other day I saw a woman was walking by wearing a LV bag which I have a different print I almost going to talk to her about it :P I did stare at her bag for quite a while hahah hopefully she didn't think I was freak sth, in occasions I would talk to strangers about their bags

by the way, I bring my reverse giant logo LV to gym all the time, people do look at my bag because it's such a in your face kinda of big logo you know like you saw some people have huge chest something your eyes automatically draw there kinda of look but nothing strange face same thing to my Gucci or even LV's DE DA that more suttle logos, when I go to some closeup places people even would ask about my bags, I think women we are interested in others clothing bags if we are into bags, like the other day I saw a woman was walking by wearing a LV bag which I have a different print I almost going to talk to her about it :P I did stare at her bag for quite a while hahah hopefully she didn't think I was freak sth, in occasions I would talk to strangers about their bags

Love your response! I had a Givenchy gym bag but I stopped going to the gym and only do the pilates so I don’t bring my spin shoes or change of cloth without a locker room. Nobody knows what Givenchy is so people rarely gawk.

I probably should add this woman had an hideous mom plain cotton canvas tote with a UF embroidered on it. I kid you not it looked like she was carrying a medicine cabinet in there because it was packed with all sort of stuff…and most likely as @indiaink just mentioned to treat her indigestion. lol

I also have bag envy sometimes and stare at the rare colors of Chanel caviars like light pink or light blue. You can’t find them anywhere and they deserved to be looked at. This woman, however, looked at my bag like it crapped on her day. She 100% thought my bag was either inappropriate or disliked it for another reason…. She doesn’t like my stuff, its her problem.

Maybe she really liked your bag and tried to get one and missed out. Or maybe she’s not all that great on the reformer And makes faces as per @pasdedeux1 lol

Funny You said this because that is 100% true! She didn’t do 25% of the positions due to back problems. Man I herniated a spinal disc one year and it was horrible. Maybe I need to have more empathy for face girl.
 
She was nasty during that entire 1 hr class. I guess it could be a case of RBF and thats just her face
I was going to say I, unfortunately, suffer from RBF and I have to try to smile, smile, smile, or people are always asking me what's wrong or what happened! Not fun! If she really was giving u a dirty look, shame on her. But I just ignore people like that.
 
If the only thing that was nasty about her was her expression and it was the same expression for the duration of the class, then I'd give the benefit of the doubt and say she has RBF. I have mild RBF and I know I can look pretty pissy when I'm tired. Either way, I wouldn't think too much about it unless you feel like your bag may be tampered with or stolen.

I have RBF as well - and I don't care, it's just my face.
I'm also an introvert and don't necessarily notice other people - so maybe I've left some offended people in my wake that I didn't even see? :hrmm:

Anyway... OP, please carry whichever bag you want! :yes:
 
I stopped getting notification on this thread even though it is still on. Hm..
I really didn’t think LV is that ostentatious. The Monceau is also super old and kinda around town casual bag. Its not like I’m bringing a red birkin croc to pilates. I just need to get used to people’s RBFS lol
