Indescribably awful. Just say no to faux!

I think that it's tacky.

I seriously doubt that any "designer" fabric is real. I hate it when people swear up and down that their LV bag is real when they paid like $250 for it. REAL LV bags are thousands of dollars.

Not all LV bags are thousands of dollars -- many are under $1000 and the little accessories pouch that everyone has actually is $245. Either way, though, the fabrics are tacky.

True...I mean the larger purses. I will edit that shit.

Is it just me, or do those teeny tiny LV bags smack of desperation? It's like "Look at me with my Louis Vuitton bag. It's tiny because I couldn't afford a properly sized bag but at least it's VUITTON!" I suppose it depends a great deal on the way the person is dressed. I'm less inclined to think that a person is desperate for Vuitton if they're dressed nicely as opposed to a twenty year old in shoes from Payless (no offensive to those that are twenty and wear Payless. Hey, that was me in college.)

I am sitting here thinking that anybody who would pay that much for a purse has to be half insane, or a millionaire. That's a mortgage payment!

Your little is more likely to keep the solid letter shirt.

Sometimes yes, sometimes no.....I have some small LV bags and some bigger ones, and I bought the smaller ones bc I liked them, not b/c I couldn't afford a bigger one.....but I agree that if someone carries a small LV with EVERYHING, even if it doesn't match the outfit at all, it does smack of desperation!

That's a great point!
I know several people with LVs (fairly small, but not tiny ones) who take them everywhere, and have for several years. Doesn't matter what they wear or whether it matches or is an appropriate style. That does smack of desperation... I'd rather see someone with a 20 dollar liz purse that matches their outfit

The scariest thing I have seen ia a middle aged woman in a gold colored velour Gucci print sweat suit, Gucci print gold sneakers, a matching Gucci print hat and a Gucci print purse....

You sound like you really like the fabric since you posted the link. You know your little better than any of us do, and if you think she'll find it cute, go for it! While designer fabric isn't for everyone, if she'll wear it, you should get it. Not to mention that she'll probably just love anything from her big! Hope that helps!

[KatieKate1244]

EW. Please don't use those fabrics, they just look so bad! Then again, I'm also growing really tired of all the logo stuff. Maybe look for a nice stripes or polka dot print instead?

Stop and think- do you really care what other people think for one? I mean you're obviously not going to wear a shirt that comes out looking like crap, so who cares. If you PERSONALLY like it, go for it. I can afford Burberry, Gucci, etc. but I personally wouldn't think to get a shirt made into it. Then again I bought Vera fabric and turned it into letters to match my purse when I pledged and I could have cared less what anyone else thought.

Here's the thing- be true to yourself. You should have a good idea of what your lil is like as well. If the shirt is cute who cares if it's a knock-off pattern- it's still a cute pattern. Don't give it to her saying "look it's fake Gucci" she probably won't care. She'll probably just be happy her Big was thoughtful enough to get her a shirt at all. And again, if it's cute to you, it's cute to wear, because you can wear it with confidence- something which is ALWAYS attractive!
