I'ven't bought a new bag almost a year now but I've a Tod's tote on the way which is a planned purchase because I've been looking for a perfect black tote for a couple of year. I don't know yet whether to keep it or not, so I don't count it a purchase yet.
However, I fell in love with this mini bag by Lum i. 1) The leather is simply divine and so luxurious. 2) In addition, the crossbody strap is very comfy. 3) Plus it's -25% off. right now. 4) My other bag in similar style fell apart a couple years ago. 5) I can't resist any well made leather bags for a good price.
Can someone talk me out, please? My heart says yes but my brain says no.
Reasons of "no": 1) my new year resolution is not to exceed my play money budget (though I can), 2) lifespan is around 1 year due to high probability of job change (if this happens I can wear this only during weekends), 3) I own similar sized evening bag, 4) I haven't succeed to sell any bags within 3 months to downsize my wardrobe. 5) Terrible re-sale value. I'll get around 10 % of what I pay for sale price. 6) I already have a couple of black bags.
