I’m so sorry. How awkward! No one has ever asked if my bags were real or the cost (except my fiancé always asks the cost & I don’t tell him, he can look it up himself) but I can imagine how you felt being put on the spot at dinner. It’s really not polite to ask those questions of a colleague anyway. If I were there I would have been embarrassed for her because of her obvious poor manners which caused an awkward silence. It’s a bad reflection on her, not you. Enjoy your beautiful bags :flowers::hugs:
That's right! I think it was because I was put on the spot and in front of my colleagues and also my female boss I felt uncomfortable to answer in front of everyone and wish I did say something like some said ' look it up it's on the website'
 
I’m sorry her questions made you uncomfortable. I’m so quick witted that my response would have had her in tears along with my death stare. I am always prepared when someone attempts to make me uncomfortable or asks me inappropriate questions.

Always remember, it’s nobody’s business if it’s real or what it costs. Her questions were meant to make you feel bad about your purchase. She lacks tact and class and envy’s you. Please continue to enjoy your bags.
haha ! I wish I was quick witted. I did stare at her at first before answering 'yes. It is'
Thank you for your lovely comment @EmmJay My boss said she'd spend that amount on a plane ticket not a bag, I just shrugged with the look of 'oh well'
I'll make sure I'm prepared now so the next time I'm ready :smile:
 
Out for dinner with my work colleagues and a friend of one of them asked if my LV was real? :whut: Then she asked how much it cost and when I told her she went in about how she would never spend that on a bag, it’s one of the cheapest from LV you can buy! Everyone was sitting there in silence it made me really uncomfortable! I’ve never experienced that before :frown: I just smiled and said ‘each to their own’

My friend, I can imagine how embarrassing that could be, but do not worry about that! That comment could be an expression of your colleague's frustration. Maybe she is not doing financially well, or something else is going on in her life what makes her upset and helpless. As we all know life time to time gives us lemons...Bear with her. I would talk to her alone and ask her what is going on. Maybe she just needs to talk. I do not know her, you know better if that would be a good idea or not at all. We are all here very fortunate to be able to spend our money on luxury fashion brand like LV. Not everyone can do that. Maybe I am very naive and she was truly judging your lifestyle. Well, then truly do not worry about that, it is not worth it!

Wow. What some people will do or say. It seems your colleagues in their silence realized what a boor she was. Too bad someone didn’t speak up for you. Sorry that happened. We all get to choose what we wear and do, and it’s no one’s business. And I find that LV and H bring me much joy so I wear them proudly, just for me. You have support here!!!

My hair is naturally curly and I rarely wear it straight. When it’s straight, it’s much longer. One day I wore my hair straight and a guy who is a rude to everyone asked if my hair was real. I replied “Sure it’s real, I was with your dad when he bought it for me. He gives the best scalp massages.” Everyone laughed and he walked away humiliated. His behavior improved after that and he never interacted with me. I was okay with that.
Woman, you crack me up!! You remind me of an old friend of mine. Her motto was “I’m a really nice person, but you don’t EVER want to pis* me off!” And was it ever true, it cost me flowers when I inadvertently pis*ed her off!

Great comeback. It’s always interesting isn’t it when people try to make us feel bad how quickly they cave when challenged?

I love how everyone here unabashedly loves and enjoys their bags and slg’s and scarves. It’s always frustrating when someone tries to engage in envious spoiling. We will always be there if it happens to someone here!!

Sometimes the death stare alone is sufficient or I keep making them repeat the inappropriate question until they realize I am not going to answer them. “Excuse me. I cannot hear you. Come again. I still can’t hear you. Say it louder. I cannot hear you. I have intermittent hearing for inappropriate questions.” :lol::lol:

How rude! When people I don’t know well ask me, I say I don’t remember, but they can look it up online at their leisure. My good friends can ask me, because they are also interested in purchasing, but not strangers. Sorry this happened.
