    I love that it is probably just as exclusive like having a Gucci bag or Louis Vuitton bag, but the price point is not what makes it exclusive. love it!!!!!

    Galye doesn’t realize she was being disrespectful/shady. To say “ I will never wear this!” was too much. He didn’t ask you would you ever wear something like that. Calm down. Fashion is suppose to be fun. All you were doing was trying on some clothes. Of course there are pieces you’re not going to like. Just don’t be so rude about his passion.

    • @Tailcoattimes
      @Tailcoattimes 2 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      @vmina12 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      She realized what she was saying and it was intentionally rude and meant as shade. You don’t be around as long as she’s been around, and hang in the circles she hang in and not know when you’re being rude. She just can’t hide her disdain for black males.

      I was shocked that she said that…..She knows her own style and knew the look would have been inappropriate for her, yet she just could not “be in” and enjoy the moment; she had to make the moment about her…..🤷🏽‍♀️

    • @racky2227
      @racky2227 2 ปีที่แล้ว +14

      Because she knows it’s not appropriate for her age and she does look silly like she is trying to hard. I think that Telfar gets that! It’s not an insult to his clothes - it’s the fact that it’s not right for her.
