I just bought this bag and people break their necks to compliment it - D&B Alto Evelina. Only $450 on sale. Nothing is said when I wear my most expensive bags (black Chanel & Prada).
I really think it's about visual impact. The brighter the color or more unique the shape, the more compliments my bag gets. Or do I seem more approachable for comment with a bag at a price point most can afford. hmmmmm....
I have a Marc Jacobs Wellington in the most beautiful shade of pink. Every time I wear it, numerous people compliment the bag and ask questions about it.
Do you have a bag in your collection that people just can't get enough of? If so, which bag is it and what do people say to you about it?
My Tod's Mini Jewelry D-Cube gets the most compliments. Comments range from general, "I love your bag" to "it's so cute/tiny" or "I love the color."
Beautiful color! I agree with your observation that people tend to complement 'affordable' bags more. The bag I get most compliments on is a no brand turquiose blue tote that I use when the weather is bad. Its nice to get the compliments but it kindda feels bad as well cus this no brand $30 bag gets more attention than my KS, MBMJs , Coach etc.honestly, it's my Calvin Klein saffiano tote in cerise/orange. i think women feel more comfortable complimenting bags they can afford, maybe? i am rarely complemented on any of my luxury handbags but always get a lot of comments on my Betsey Johnson, Juicy and CK bags. never any compliments on Chanel or LV.
