i know i'm going to catch flak from a lot of quarters..
but.. i don't see the appeal in "branded" things... and i got a
lot of shit from the people in the office for saying that an ugly
branded bag was ugly..
to them, it could not be ugly because it was from Louis
Vuitton.. or was it Gucci or something like that.. but it was
butt-ugly..
the guy who got it from London was gushing about it.. saying it
was about $300 cheaper there.. or something like that.. thing cost
him 4 figures...
so.. i mean, it's okay for people who can afford it to buy
whatever the hell they want, but how come because it's branded, it
cannot be ugly?
i'm willing to bet a truckload that if the thing was exactly the
same design and was, say whatever brand, maybe Bata or something
like that, they'd say it was ugly too...
For me its all about the form factor, though the basic build
quality must be good too.
so let's say I lust after this because I love the design(not so
much the brand) :

but bo lui or just to pay so much, I can go for the
alternative below at less than a hundred bucks:
