A grandmother from Taiwan has gone viral after accidentally using her $1,260 Louis Vuitton bag to carry groceries.

On a Chinese social media network, one user revealed how he had bought his grandmother an expensive leather tote. The next time he saw her, he was rendered “speechless” when he learned she was using the designer item to carry fresh fish.

She told him the new bag was extremely waterproof but slightly heavy for her. Her grandson didn’t have the heart to tell her about mistake after seeing how happy the bag made her.

Louis Vuitton’s Neverfull MM bag retails for $1,260. According to the product’s description, “the redesigned interior features a fresh textile lining and heritage details inspired by House archives. Best of all, the removable zippered clutch can be carried separately as a chic pochette or serve as an extra pocket. Linings in a selection of bright shades lend a pop of vivid color to the timeless Monogram canvas.”

The post has since been liked over 30,000 times with people labelling the elderly woman as “the most fashionable person at the market.”
