To be honest. At this point, I assume all monogram Vuitton is fake, seriously. I just dont care. Either you're too tasteless to get a clue or your bag is fake...
I agree, totally. I am so over LV monogram anything. I do like the luggage though, but I would never carry an LV handbag at this point. I did have a papillon several years ago that was STOLEN

... and back in 2000/2001 hardly anyone carried LV except those that knew designer brands... Oh man, was I gutted over that loss... but, I never repurchased one, and probably never will (luggage yes, monogram handbag, no).
It's kind of sad, because the authentic white multicolore is soooo pretty... the light pinks and yellows and contrasting dark shades... but every time I see the putrid LV fakes and all the knock-off booney & dourke "monogram" and all those other cheesey brands... UGH!!! I could never carry one without feeling completely tacky.
I have a story!!! My husband is sooo mean, but I trained him well. he went out on just this past St Patricks Day with his work friends and got really drunk. He spotted some girl sitting with a really nasty fake LV proudly displayed on top of the table. He said he was so excited to use his "expertise", that he went up to her and told her she had a really bad fake LV. She said "it's not a fake"... and he said "YES IT IS!! Louis vuitton doesn't make bags with lopsided, cut off LV's like yours! it's fake!"... her friend looked amused and said "I thought you said you got this at the LV store in San Francisco?" she then sheepishly admitted that she got it on Ebay.
I told him that was really mean and not to do that again. Personally, I have a mixture of real and replica bags, and he knows it... I thought that was really, really mean. He said he was drunk and being obnoxious anyway and his mouth ran away with him, he was just so amused to be able to spot a fake and be certain of it and he wanted to come bak and tell me about it! LOL! (we play the "is it fake game" at malls and airports all the time, lol... which is mostly how he got his "education").
No one has ever asked if my bags are fake, in fact... people even stare at my replicas in awe, and gush about them to me
I've never had another reaction. But either way it makes me uncomfotable because I don't like to discuss money and status. I think it's tasteless and showy. I just wear things I really, really love.... whether it cost $5, $500 or $5000.
