Dior Gaucho Conversation with the Grouch-o
on March 21st, 2007
The Dior Gaucho bag just keeps getting better. When it first came out, ehh not so good. But with style re-inventions there have been improvements, like interesting texture and different straps.
Now they have the classic in a shimmering gold metallic washed calfskin. My BFF’s mother picked that out as her dream bag, and I say “good choice!”
But here’s how the conversation went with my BFF, introduced here for the first time (who otherwise will be known as the Evil Fashionisto! dun dun dunnn).
Ella: “And that’s an It Bag!”
TEF: “A **it bag?”
Ella, ignoring: “I found the price! It’s about the same as my dream quilted Bay; $1760.”
TEF: “**** ****.”
Ella: “It’s less expensive than the Gaucho she liked last trip to Neimans. Over $2,000.”
TEF: “****. Ma, you should get a fake.”
Ma: “I don’t want a fake.”
TEF “No, don’t they have inspireds?”
Ella: “Yeah, I can find one for you, without metallic leather though, probably on ASOS.”
TEF: “What’s that, pesos? It’s for pesos? That’s a perfect price!”
Ella, laughing: “That’s priceless. Ooh, get it?!”
I’ve hated the Gaucho by Dior. There wasn’t one aspect to pinpoint, or so I thought, but with the arrival of a new Gaucho style, I suddenly know.
