I'm so stoked here friends---as I've found so many adorable and might I say really good leather bags, at my local T.J. Maxx and Marshalls stores. For instance, at TJ Maxx, just this past week, I've bought 2 awesome Dooney& Bourke leather bags for way less, (past season items) and in the past I've bought a few "Lancel" bags too, (last years models) for half the price of what they sell for in Paris, and 2 Lamarthe little leather shoulder pouches, (red and brown) for half off as well. I'm completely thrilled. I frequent this store maybe once per week, as it's a great store for buying my husband's and kids clothes, and some of my clothes and stuff as well.Just this past week, I bought 2 gorgeous Dooney&Bourke purses for half off the retail price. (Called customer service--they confirmed yes, these bags were twice what I paid--but last Spring). Well, I don't mind.
Wondering, have you all found some good bargains at your local stores such as this? Tell us about them! I'd love to know, for one.
Regards,
Should I?I do know the last gorgeous faux Chanel bag I bought via the net, was made and shipped directly from China. AAArgh. Is this bad? Why? Do you know the last time I was abroad, they told me that most everything nowadays is made there.
