One of the other threads on compliments got me thinking on how LV bags are perceived in my city...
While a trip to the local Zara will reveal teens carrying their NFs and Speedys galore, Starbucks will disclose some Eva and Favorite wearers, some (very stylish but very few) men will be spotted strolling the street with their messengers, and ever so often, you'll catch a glimpse of a Hampstead, Bloomsbury, Trevi, Kensington adorning the wearer's shoulder.
The biggest observation in it all is that ninety nine percent of times, it would either be the damier ebene or the azur canvas. The mono design (any designer) does not seem to be that popular here because most people are toned down and frown at any display of luxury. The city is by no means lacking in luxury or affluence since there is an entire street dedicated to luxury stores. Personally, I'm also stared at (not in a good way) when wearing the mono (I only own two mono Speedys - classic 30 and Idylle so far) and although it doesn't really bother me, it does make you more conscious of coming across as boastful and I personally hate drawing attention to myself.
Curious to know... How are monogram bags or LV in general perceived in your city? Do you also get heat/hate when you carry your beloved purses?
