Classying it up at the Apple Tablet Event

Wednesday, January 27th, 2010

When I think if the hordes of people that make their annual pilgrimage to the Apple unveiling events, I usually imagine the kids recently dropped off by their moms, killing time playing with magic cards and discussing the latest strategy in World of Warcraft. While watching the live announcement today on Gizmodo, as an admitted Mac geek myself, I saw this image of this cute girl sporting her Louis Vuitton Watercolor Speedy. I'm glad she took this opportunity to class up the place. Via Gizmodo


Why Louis Vuitton doesn’t Di$count…

Cristiano Ronaldo shopping louis Vuitton
(I love a man who knows how to shop!  This is Cristiano Ronaldo, getting it done!)

I thought this was an interesting quote from an interesting article,  "The Economics of Discounting":

"Discounting smacks of desperation," says Liz Gunnison. "That's why brands like Louis Vuitton and Apple don't do it."

Again, we can all say what we will about Louis Vuitton's price increase policy- and about their not discounting- but who is not only weathering this economic storm- but thriving as if it doesn't exist?

They'll continue to raise prices as the dollar drops- and we'll just keep paying.  It's just what we do :)
