A wealthy Sydney influencer has unleashed on her own fans for correcting the way she pronounces a well known designer brand.
Sarah Stevenson, known as Sarah’s Day online, took to Instagram Stories on Sunday to show off her outfit before heading out for dinner with a friend.
Filming herself in the mirror, the mother-of-three posed holding two handbags by Spanish luxury fashion house Loewe, pronouncing the brand ‘Low-ee’.
Fashion-savvy fans immediately flooded Sarah’s inbox with messages informing her that the correct pronunciation is actually ‘Lo-weh-vay’.
This clearly struck a nerve for Sarah, who returned to Instagram Stories with a bizarre rant hitting back at her critics.

‘Literally shut up, shut up! Ok?’ the blonde raged.
She went on to condemn her followers for correcting her in an ‘unkind’ way.
‘First of all, yes, I did. I said Low-ee. Second of all, I don’t appreciate the sass, OK?’ she ranted.
Sarah had pronounced the brand name Loewe as ‘Low-ee’ in a video while showing off her outfit before heading out for dinner with a friend on Sunday
‘There is a loving and kind way to correct somebody. You will learn that when you’re a mother and you try raising children.’
Sarah insisted it wasn’t her fault she pronounce Loewe incorrectly as no one had corrected her in the past, while claiming that she still doesn’t know how to pronounce brands like Moët, Louis Vuitton and Jacquemus.
She also noted that she ‘isn’t the kind of person who is going to Google’ how to pronounce a name.

‘Like that’s just not in my DNA. I just would never do that. Like, I just read something and I just, like, call it what it is… I’m not an over thinker. I’m like an under thinker in that way,’ she explained.
In an attempt to prove her point, Sarah then posted a questionnaires for her followers, asking how they pronounce the name of certain brands.
Among them was the Champagne brand Moët, which is pronounced with a hard t.
‘For years I said ‘Mo-ay’,’ Sarah admitted.
Sarah was also surprised to learn that the fashion brand Decjuba is pronounced ‘De-cuba’ and not, as she previously thought, ‘Dec-joo-bah’.
