Et Tu, Your Honor?
Counterfeit Chic recently attended a gathering that included a distinguished member of the judiciary. When a drink was accidentally splashed on her quilted "Chanel" handbag, the elegantly attired judge graciously pardoned the offender. "Don't worry about it," she said. "It's not real -- it's just some piece of plastic."
Comments
I think it is great. It is true nonsense to pay so much for a "real" handbag.
All power to her for not wasting her money.
If the bag holds things and looks nice. Why not?
P.S. As long as it does not have a fake label. (Did I miss the point of the post?)

Oh my gosh, that is too perfect (that you were present to see this happen I mean! ;)

No, no fake logo -- but I still couldn't help laughing at the judge's response. (Perhaps she was thinking of trade dress protection -- the quilting, chain handle, and shape all screamed "Chanel.")
