Their shoes are very, very popular. The handbags, not so much.

Sounds like they’re pretty popular in Buckhead!

The article says they stole handbags, along with shoes that were in the display window, and that they had also raided a nearby Neiman Marcus on Tuesday.

The bags are very expensive and will probably make good “resale” items...or maybe they’re giving them to their baby-mommas, although I doubt it. The life of a baby-momma usually isn’t that good.

All of these high-end items appear in rap videos or even in rap songs (if you can make out the lyrics, which unfortunately I can). This is probably why the junior thug crowd is after them.

Exactly.....

But anytime Kardashians or thug culture latches on it hurts the brand in the long run

Louis Vuitton and Hervé Leger come to mind

They made a run at Chanel but Lord Lagerfeld just pushed it out of reach.....smart man....

As a buyer of tons of high end ladies footwear

jimmy Choo is a better deal as is stu weitzman

Manolo knows how to make a nice pump like no other in my opinion

Prada and Valentino for sandal heels

Chanel and Lanvin for flats

Wifey is on a Celine kick....it may break me....it’s that level one hash mark below Hermés

I prefer on shoes my wife have 30-40 pair of perennial fashion name brand versus hundreds of pairs of cheap

But that’s just me

She loves The Art of the Shop
