Hehe I loved reading through these! Would have loved to know where people are to compare with the descriptions
I'm in NYC and quite young so I haven't gone for Birkin or Kelly yet (feel like I look odd wearing them, they don't suit me at this age somehow) but here's my usual when I go luxury shopping when I want to look older and richer and pretend I'm a member of the upper society (bahahaha it's almost like I'm going on an acting trip each time, very fun to dress up and pretend I'm not even a student since I look older anyway. also like wearing a ring on my ring finger to pretend I'm married):
BUT when I go luxury shopping, I find that the older women often have these characteristics:

- Rolex watch
- VCA 5 motifs bracelet, Piaget rose ring, a few other thin gold rings I stack (all these I wear on the daily though, they're all small)
- Chanel CF or Boy, or Hermes Roulis
- Joseph or Moncler coat in winter
- Casual thin blazer in summer (usually eileen fisher, I like their blazers a lot)
- Valentino ankle boots in winter, stuart weitzman over the knee boots or yeezy's, depending how casual I am that day
- Bally janesse mules in summer
- LV or Dior scarf, both logos are very small on the ones I have and are not monogram patterned
- Take an Uber
- My dog (she's tiny and well behaved, very easy to hold when I'm shopping, and it seems people here like to go luxury shopping with their dogs!)
BUT when I go luxury shopping, I find that the older women often have these characteristics:
- Birkin or Kelly, picotin seems popular in summer too! If not, then lots of Chanel.
- Some type of furs in winter
- Expensive watch
- Minimal makeup (??? haha)
- Their own cars or drivers for sure, only the rich in NYC seem to bc it's so inconvenient
- Sunglasses on their heads?
- Their dogs, sometimes more than 1
- Also minimal logos! I find it's the younger members and tourists (especially Europeans!) that have big logos like Gucci belts etc.
