Piece of shit or not, there are those that NEED the validation of perceived status. I was one of those people, which accounts for me having a perfectly matched set of LV luggage, totes and travel bags. As I got older I realized I dont need the validation, so the stuff is packed away in my closet, and I am considering giving it out for consignment. But even today, entertainers, especially those in the hip-hop community covet monogrammed LV, Gucci and other designer brands and make it still desirable for some....
