Today on my way to class, I was walking up a flight of stairs and saw a fabulous pair of heels coming down, then looked up and saw a girl in a very cute charcoal grey wool pencil skirt with a crisp white shirt and black pumps and hose… and carrying a signature brown and gold Louis Vuitton bag.
The bag spoiled the outfit.
I don’t care if it cost $400 or however much it cost. I don’t care if it’s Louis Vuitton. Brown and gold clash horrendously with black, white, and grey.
This is most certainly an example of the all-too prevalent idea that designer wear A) looks good on everyone, B) automatically makes you fashionable, and C) therefore above reproach. Even famous designers can make a misstep and the masses misusing their wares in such a manner doesn’t help much either.
Had she had a designer bag that was a pop of color like royal blue or red, she would have been fashionable and stylish.
-20 degree weather (with -40 degree windchill) is making me absolutely pine for spring and floaty skirts and cute cotton blouses and bare legs. Or dark cuffed jean capris, wedges, and cute teeshirts. *sigh* And it’s only February! This is getting ridiculous.

Was is the miroir bag or the monogram canvas? Either case, it doesn’t sound too appealing with the outfit.
