The real gentlemen

While I was in London, this was a common thing to come across in the streets. Men -mostly of Chinese origin- carrying their girlfriend's handbag. It was really funny as most of the times the purse was girly enough -for obvious reasons- and didn't match at all the "holder's" clothes. However the guy above is perfectly dressed and his style rocks with the golden details of the bag.

I was impressed by the fact that these guys were holding the bag all the time. It was not a "Hold it for one sec to fix my hair" case. So this raises some questions.. Why do you even need a bag girl? Or why do you pay so much money at Louis Vuitton if you're not gonna have any future relationship with this bag? At least they should let their guys pick one that they like, that matches their style and personality.

In Greece however, there is NO WAY you can persuade your boyfriend, husband or even your male friend to hold your bag, even for 5 minutes.
