1) my boss is a Chinese male, even if he knows, it's ok, he really is the nicest boss you could probably ever have :)
2) there are quite many European people in our organization, to them, a fancy hand bad is not really a big deal, though i don't see many of them carry ones, prob. because they are kind of academic and old traditional style.
3) Birkin is still low key compared with other brand who have sharp logo, like LV or Gucci...
