Mixing LV with Non-LV?

[ashtray-girl]

mixing brand is ok in most cases!
who has the time to change wallets every morning ?
I don't own burberry rainboots but moonboots and a cashmere scarf and I wear it with my bal or longchamp le pliage as booth burberry items aren't in the classic glencheck but red-checked.

actually I think brand mixing can be sometimes more classy than from head to toe in one brand. saw once a lady in patent-dior-cannage boots, patent-cannage-belt and patent-cannage-bag. . . though all items were stunning it really looked kind of off/strang worn together. . .

How much brand-mixing is acceptable (if any), when the items are visible?

Even when I carry a burberry tote, I use my LV wallet. I don't think twice about that. However, I'm thinking about getting Burberry rain boots (and a scarf, if one hits me). But will this look too "label whoreish" if I carry an LV at the same time? I generally only carry damier bags, but wallets are mono.

Just curious! I can't decide if I would think someone was unreasonably logo-ed out if they had that on.

What you mentioned above sounds perfectly fine! It's hard for me to decide sometimes, too. When in doubt I stick to one obvious piece which is usually my handbag (I wear LV sunnies but no one can tell unless they're an LV whore like me as well, hehehe).

Is the Burberry all the yellow check? Because if so, then no I wouldn't. It'd be too much to wear that print in the boots, scarf, and a tote. Then again I'm British so we have slightly distorted views of the traditional Burberry check.

I would only wear one piece with very visible/obvious logos, but that's just me. Subtler logos are OK, you can wear a few more of those perhaps.

Thanks everyone. I guess I'll have to try it on in the store and see how I feel about it.

I do want LV sunnies SO badly; I wouldn't even count those because I don't think they're terribly recognizable.

if you like it, i love it! life is too short to worry about others. some ppl considering carrying a mono bag being "label whoreish".

as far as mix/matching goes i primarly stick to LV but have an eiffel longchamp tote that i carry at times but ppl prob dont even know what it is.

Same for me. I only really have LV, but I don't see a problem with mixing!

I love Burberry and I mix and match as I like! With some taste of course!

Wear what you love, your opinion is the only one that matters!

I mix everything ... Burberry purse, LV wallet, agenda, Gucci sunnies, CL shoes ... if it works into a consistent outfit, why not!

I got my boots yesterday, no scarf. I don't love how it looks with my bag, but I don't like the look of rain boots in general, either. lol might as well rock what I've got!

And I'm such a dope... if it's raining enough to need rain shoes, I prob won't be carrying my LV. So maybe my question was for nothing -- Except I did get some sunnies from BB that I love and don't hit my scars. But I don't think anyone who's not looking for trouble will notice they're *gasp* not LV.

When the items are visible (i.e. a mixture of logos and brands in boots, clothes, hats, scarves, bags) I say "NO". It just screams bad taste... LOL

When the items are not visible the entire time (e.g. a Burberry wallet inside a LV bag), I think its totally fine. Its much more classy to be discreet IMO.

I think its fine... I always carry my Chanel jumbo with my LV zippy lol

I say it's fine for the most part. In fact I think it can get a little annoying to be head to toe in one designer---almost like a walking advertisement. I probably have 3-4 on at a time between a bag/wallet etc, sunglasses, shoes/boots, scarves etc.

i do it everytime..

 

[iamsmilin]

I think it's fine as long as the stuff doesn't scream labels. I once saw a lady with a coach signature hat in tan, coach sneakers in the rainbow logo and a LV logo bag. Wayyyy too much.

I completely agree. You might care less about others, but there is such a thing as bad taste. I think that having different logos all over IS a bad taste. As mentioned above, subtler logos are just fine.
