White mother of black children (and white children) tells it like it is.

[Maraya1969]

60. In a Louie Vuitton store in Italy the sales person would not sell Oprah a handbag.

He kept saying it was for "Italian people only". She and the people she was with kept asking him questions and finally a manager came out and said she could have the bag, (it was for a friend's niece who had picked it out)

But then the niece said she really wanted the one in the window which was a different color and the sales person said: "NO"

So somehow an Italian who knew who she was came in and talked with the sales person and manager and she said, "It must have been the Oprah conversation" because after they turned around they said, "You can have anything in the store and would you like champagne!"

She was laughing about it but then again she is Oprah.
