This is kind of nifty though, nowadays this kind of valuable information is right at your fingertips. You can look up what that exact car has sold for in your area recently, and show it to the salesman and explain you aren’t willing to go higher than the average price, and if you can see reason why it should be sold for slightly below that (mileage, whatever) you could make your case for a price below the average. And back it up with data, that ‘28 cars exactly like this have sold at that price this year in this state so I don’t believe you if you say that’s an impossible price to sell the car for’.
I got my dusty pink purse from Belgium today. It is very similar to a Massaccesi Aura. I really like it.
This is actually my only bag with a leather lining. Very pretty light pink leather inside.
Gotta say, I've shopped in H for 9 years regularly and though often reg staff treat me like a VIP, on the odd occasion I get a 'temp'/new 'serving', treating me like an idiot I feel like screaming. No attitude is more off-putting.
I remember after waiting patiently for 10 min + a Chanel SA in Harrods told me she was only employed to serve Asian customers. You can imagine I hit the roof, no way was I gonna take that (which is in breach of Harrod's policies). They make up that crap out of thin air
I don't think BV can afford to be lately, but that's another story.
I was wearing my BV hobo yesterday. Wearing a BV bag is like putting your slippers on: comfortable and feels like coming home
Totally divine
Which brand is this?
Cathy Roels, she’s an indie bag maker in Belgium. She’s been studying under a Delvaux master for 7 years (but it’s just her addiction/passion, she hasn’t quit her day job) and selling her bags locally and online for just the past couple of years; the first five she just used them herself and gave them to friends& family.

Sorry I haven't been around. I haven't forgotten you though.

Bags out -1 My Alexander McQueen shopper. So PO about it though coz I left it in a Black Cab. Everyone pray it comes back to me please, I can't live without it.
Bags in - 0 But I am itching.
I bought some Georg Jensen ruthenium/enamel Daisy earrings and a sterling silver Smithy belt for DH. I've never bought clip-on earrings before and they don't feel particularly safe so I've asked GJ how I can make them tighter/stay on better.

Is the company having difficulties? They closed the BV store at the Natick Mall a while ago and transferred some of the staff to the Boston store, so the thought occurred to me that they may be downsizing.
Oh, no! Sending good vibes re the McQueen shopper. If it’s doesn’t come back to you, can you rebuy or is it discontinued?
They're calling it 're-structuring'. A lot of companies seem to be doing lately = 'new world order'
Limited edition and hard to get at the time. I will be on the look out though. It was so much a part of my life, I'd just like to KICK MYSELF but that's not healthy either.
