The Louis

So every rush has its flavor.  I have been amused by shoes on dogs, boys on unicycles, brilliant hair and off the wall clothing.  Anyone who knows me knows I'm not normally impressed by the cost of things other than shock value. 
This young man drops off his backpack at bag checking and goes in the store.  One of the new gals comment on the Louis Vuitton backpack sitting on the shelf and how it had to be worth about $500. I know nothing about that.  I know my friend Stacey just came back from Greece where she bought a Louis Vuitton belt and it was one of the "cheaper" things in the store.  There was something about the way she said it that made you know Louis's are not cheap.  I figured our new gal was right. 
The young man comes back and I comment about us talking about his bag and how the label alone must be worth $100.  He laughed and said no and that the bag was a gift.  And off he went. 
Then it was pointed out to me how he was wearing a real gold chain and a real vintage Sonics jacket.  So I'm sure there is more to the story.  I can at least say I have touched a Louis Vuitton bag.
