It was not long ago when I first heard about fake Louis Vuitton sachets. I had known about the designer brand, but had never heard of imitations. Instantly I was intrigued! I had to know more about this fashion faux pas.
Crossing my fingers I hopped onto my laptop in search of answers. I was bombarded with images, reviews, opinions and articles about these fake items. What I discovered was quite a shock, and I felt a little cheated at discovering that there were deceitful individuals out there producing counterfeit designs of a designer brand.
My first thought was wow, these look convincing! Now, this is where things get shady. It is such a shame how some people take advantage of the wants and needs of others. What is worse is the fact that these individuals make use of designer brands to profit off of another’s hard work. To make matters worse, it has become increasingly difficult to pick out the real items from the fake ones.
Of course I had my opinions about these bamboozling designs, however, I took a moment to read what others had to say. The feedback was quite mixed. Some felt it was a great way to showcase ‘freestyle styling’ and ‘economic success’, while others gave out warnings against purchasing any of these fashion knock-offs.
After doing my research I came to the conclusion that purchasing a counterfeit Louis Vuitton satchel would be a mistake. Not only are the designers not receiving the credit where it’s due, but the customer is also deceived into believing that they own something that is entirely authentic.
The long discussion of pros and cons helped me to shape my opinion. Unsuspecting buyers who purchase fake goods believe that they’ve acquired something real only to be cheated in the long run. Not only do designer products cost a lot more than the counterfeit ones, but they also come with their own quality assurance.
The truth is that fake items don’t last very long. Despite how realistic they may look, they are most likely made using inferior materials, and the construction of the item will not be as strong as the real thing. Having said that, there is nothing stopping you from finding unique, non- branded items that have similar, if not better designs than the original.
With an open mind, I explored a range of products that did not use a designer brand as its source of authenticity. Instead, I found a variety of sachets that looked equally, if not better than the fake Louis Vuitton ones. The range of goods I found were practical, affordable, and offered more variety than the designer ones.
Many of the boutique stores have their own custom-made apparel, bags and accessories that offer something special at a fraction of the cost. These items do not claim to be designer-inspired, however, many of these handmade items are made up of top quality leather and precious materials like gold and diamonds.
The real luxury items that are handcrafted, crafted with love and made without using any marketing gimmicks are the ones that are worth investing in. These pieces offer a unique and timeless style that you won’t find in the fake designs. With such a variety of goods to choose from, I feel confident in my decision to support small businesses and make an investment that is not only smart but worthwhile.
