The way Chanel is going with the quality now. You’re better off buying a preloved bag that is in the 10 series range. The new Chanel classic flaps leans forward. I’ve bought one from this year and people saying preloved from 10 series is a better option.

I think that Chloe Faye bag will just get cooler, the more rugged a patina it acquires. If it were me, I'd just give in and embrace it! It's kind of a super-cool 70's vibe?

Agree 100%! That style in particular will look beautiful as it ages.. a leather conditioner for small scuffs can help on the soft leather.

My best designer purchase was a total lucky fluke. I found a gorgeous pair of maroon velvet Sergio Rossi heels at a discount store, marked down to $199 (from $399) and then an additional 30% off. But I was about to go on vacation and wanted to save the money, and they weren't practical shoes lol. A couple months later I went back and they were still there but now marked 80% off, so they were only $40 and I had a reward voucher, so I got them for about $21! I've worn them once but I don't care because I got such a great deal and they're works of art. :)

I actually purchased a pair of Louboutins in Vegas from my winnings with about a 3 inch heel and they are extremely comfortable. I think when you get in to sky high heels, your foot is not suppose to bend at than angle and makes any shoe uncomfortable.

Fleur, regarding the Lanvin ballet shoes... Fold the top part of the back of the shoe over itself. It helps to stretch the top part of the back of the shoe. I do this with all of my Lanvins as I had the same problem as you have. It really helps!!

Best designer purchases over the years (keep in mind I'm 36 and have been working for years): Chanel classic flaps in black caviar and beige lambskin. I bought them so long ago that I don't think I'd be able to afford them now! Mulberry Bayswater in black and oak (brown) that I use most days for work. Balenciaga Work in both Black and Tan - I bought them both in 2005 and 11 years on they're still looking great and get worn all weekend and I also still use them for work. Charlotte Olympia 'Octavia' heels purchased for my wedding. Ridiculously expensive for something that goes on your feet ($1500) but the were perfect, so comfortable and I love them! Worst purchase: Gucci patent orange/red wooden platform heels. A trendy purchase that only got worn twice. Thankfully they were on sale and I've since managed to sell them. Similarly, I tend to invest in accessories (I'll have for years) and wear high street clothing - Zara, JCrew, Whistles, Topshop.

@duckpondwithoutducks 8 жыл бұрын

The only luxury purchase I ever made was a Burberry winter coat. It was $700. I have worn it pretty much every other day in the wintertime for 7 years, and I love it every time I put it on. It is just starting to fray now at the cuffs, but still looks good. It was totally worth it.

The first ever designer bag I first recognised when I was about 13 was Louis Vuitton, and I had ALWAYS wanted a speedy. After buying copies in Turkey etc and them never lasting but me still being madly in love with the style almost 10 years later, I saved up and decided to buy my first ever proper designer bag! I keep it in it's dust bag full of bubblewrap and haven't regretted it one bit! Absolutely love it! x

@samantarizzi248 8 жыл бұрын

Same lol but then again, who knows what will happen in the future? I'm currently 22 years old, haven't decided what my career will be yet (I wanted to become a professional dancer, but my mom couldn't afford to pay for competitions and classes and stuff - single parent) and ideas just slowly came to me lately, I want to get my hands on makeup industry, writing and something to do with animals. And maybe some day, I could afford at least ONE designer bag or shoes or something... like a little treat for myself, after everything I've been though (who hasn't though). But even if I can't - who cares, it won't be the end of the world. Eating healthy and good meals mean so much more to me than some designer bags, anyway :)

I've been in love with the Rockstud heels ever since they came out. My husband even loved them when he happened to walk by when I was looking at them on the computer. He changed his mind though when I told him the price. lol. I did those, a little while back come across a pair from BCBG that were inspired from them. And they were actually on clearance when I found them, so I was more than excited. I do have told say that I honestly didn't expect them to be very comfortable, but they're amazing! And I get compliments every time I wear them.

My best luxury buy is most definitely my Givenchy Nightingale. I got it in the medium with goatskin leather and it is amazing. It can be a bit of a black hole, but the size is so good and the leather is so soft yet incredibly durable. I never use the shoulder strap, but it's actually quite comfortable in the crook of your arm so I don't mind that at all. I'm also so glad that I bought it before they redesigned them because the love the stitching down the front and back. So in love!

I got the new Mulberry Clifton bag yesterday. I had my sights set on the Lily bag for a while now, but their new range by Johnny Coca really caught my eye and I loved how structured and elegant the Clifton was. I got the grained leather so it should wear well. The design really is a departure from traditional Mulberry, but I hope it will end up being a 'best' rather than 'worst' purchase.
