Designer Items #8

I see plenty of cheap and quirky Marc Jacobs secondhand pumps for sale on Vinted, thankfully none sold in awful condition. I'm keeping my eye out for decent leather footwear (Dr Martens is so-and-so) so is it worth the hype?
 
They remind me of peasant shoes from the 1800s (sorry 🥴)

Is it a thing now to not receive a dust bag with a designer handbag? Bought one from an airport and got one. Bought two from Harvey Nichols and neither came with one.
Which designer was it? I’d expect a dust bag with any brand mid-market and above.

Chloé and Vivienne Westwood. They were cheaper online with a code plus I got a good deal with my credit card for a spend up at HN, so not sure if that’s why but I was still surprised to not receive a basic dust bag with either of them.

I’m looking at buying an LV speedy for a bit of a harder wearing handbag (rather than something leather). Looking at the Damier ebene but struggling with size… 25/30. Any recommendations? Would like it to be able to fit hat and gloves in the winter plus my kindle, wallet etc. and then maybe a lighter layer in the summer. Having a baby in the next few weeks too… so wondering if the 30 is just more practical?

That’s really poor @Islawight is it too late to complain? There’s no way they didn’t come with a dust bag which makes you wonder where they went?

@A1992 I have a 30 and I was worried it might be a bit too big, but it really isn’t. If you’re the type of person who likes to carry a lot of 💩 around with you, the 30 will be perfect. I am not a tiny bag person 😂

Thank you! And do you have an organiser/ would you recommend getting one?

What’s on everyone’s wish list? I usually treat myself after Xmas but I’m feeling uninspired this year.

It is all so overpriced now, it’s just mad. It’s made it less desirable in some way, I hate being made a mug of.

My dream is still a Chanel. But I just refuse to pay the prices now. Especially as their quality has gone down. Plus the hardware used to be actual 24k gold and now it’s just plated.
I need to start looking at good quality 90’s bags

I know what you mean. I’d love a Balenciaga city but the new ones look poor quality and it’s hard to find pre loved in good condition.

It’s worse than that. It used to be 24k gold plated, and now it’s just gold toned.

I agree that most luxury brands are expensive to the point of ridiculous now. I splurged this year on a LV and I’d love more but it’s nearly impossible to justify.

I feel that YSL is still good value for money. Less pricey and good quality. It doesn’t have the same popularity as Gucci and LV therefore you get more for your money
