That’s true. Should I mention it before giving it to her?Hmm. I don’t know. If she doesn’t know anything LV she might not know it came from a full set. In that case I can see her being really happy.
If she did, however, find out it came from a set it’s quite obvious you only gave it to her because you didn’t want that size from the set. That’s kind of awkward imo.
No, I don’t think you need to.That’s true. Should I mention it before giving it to her?![]()
I agree! My sister always wanted an LV bag and I gave her my DE Speedy years ago instead of selling it. I’ve never seen her carry it. Her husband told me he put it in their safe soon after I gave it to her along with some other valuables. He laughed but he seemed genuine. Fast forward - he kept talking about the NF and how he wanted to buy her one. She’s worn that bag to death and I said to her the other night- Hey, you should get that Speedy out of the “vault” and carry it! I also mentioned how she she could buy straps on Etsy for it. She seemed REALLY confused and said Oh, I don’t keep any bags in the safe. I’m thinking she might’ve sold it….most likely she didn’t like it. ♀️Exactly, agree with above poster — it’s a generous gift regardless and the only reason I might suggest not to do it is if you think she wouldn’t appreciate it, since she doesn’t own any LV.
