An old “friend” of mine gave me a Louis Vuitton hand bag. It’s the Damier Geant Compagnon canvas made of ultra strong synthetic fibres with the classic adjustable shoulder strap. It’s a unisex bag perfectly sized between a compact city bag and a full size messenger, just perfect thing to keep a contact diary book for prospects clients on my networking sideline job. Take note, the packets are marked Louis Vuitton Paris. Neato. Inside the bag is durable synthetic lining with a numerous pockets. Handsome bag.
But guess what, this bag is only a replica of the real McCoy. My friend must have travelled from the neighbouring province of Shenzhen China where you can buy many logo bags in a 10th storey mall. Also, they are everywhere around in Hong Kong, specially near those tourist spots and have them laid out on blankets. But no shit, it looks so real. However, I still am amazed anyone around here woud really buy the real Vuittons even if they are really expensive. If anyone is willing to shell out that much for a bag — well, it’s their money so they can dispose it however they want. Trademarks and copyrights seems to mean anything anyway, right?
I know, I know, buy knockoffs if you want, but they’re not very convincing to anyone who’s ever owned the real thing. Why do you want a knock-off anyway? I’m a bag-fooker, I mean I love bags without the designer logo names. The one that I have been using is my 5 years old green Dodger for outdoors & travelling.
For the meantime, I’ll be using this first knock-off bag and hoping it would last for a few months, afterall I have nothing to worry on the wear and tear. Shit, it’s stealing, right?
Oh well, sometimes I still buy my CD.

For some reasons, i don’t really like LV and Burberrys… don’t ask me why.
But I like the way you snapped the pics esp the third one.. you look playful.
Asha my nokia phonecam is addicting, see how I’ve always post entirely a photo of myself around here.
went to a boutique today TODS and ask how much is the cute little bag 600euro

Sha, that fooking TODS. I swear, I wanted one but the sizes are not meant for me - it flops! I think it’s more expensive here than in Europe.
just a warning. it’s illegal to carry LV knock-offs (you need to be reported, i think). so if you got enemies…
Dez not in this city. If you are familiar with Mongkok, they sell them during the evenings in a private road till midnight. It easy to buy counterfeit goods, first class copy watches & bags unless you just buy them for the heck of it. I believe in France or the US, they probably will confiscate them.
[...] them off. Now the style is outdated but still looks nice, I never used it anymore. Remember I got a knockoff bag from LV and said “it’s my perfect bag”? I don’t know where I’ve put [...]
