how pathetic are some people…
May 27, 2007and they wonder why their kids turn out like they did. well, let’s see…
so you come across a “coach” bag at a flea market, thinking it’s real and that you’re getting an awesome deal. hmm… the guy had them apparently hidden in boxes and they’re like $40 - if that’s not a dead giveaway, i don’t know what is. yet you become almost obsessed w/ getting more of this “coach” stuff - from local consignment shops (which i find inconsistencies on) and even go as far to go back down to this flea market cause you want more items. (and this type of person is the one who wonders why their kids will only wear clothes from specific stores. hmm. can’t imagine where they got THAT from.)
people wonder why i hate brands like abercrombie so much. it’s because my life doesn’t revolve around trying to prove social status through having brand names everywhere. if people are supposed to think better of you because they think you have a coach purse… well, my mom thinks it’s silly. i just think it’s disgusting.
(disclaimer: i have two coach purses from coach outlets in MI and SC. ONE spring/summer and ONE fall/winter purse and THAT’S IT. i spent 4-5 weeks trying to locate a brown purse w/ silver hardware before i found ONE @ birch run. why silver? because i hate gold and bronze.)
