Sorry this got you down for a moment. I know you're over this now and I understand that nobody was specifically saying there's something wrong with this purchase, but rather the commentary was around the endless consumption that these sales encourage and how we all are susceptible to this at times.
Having said that, I want to add that I'm exactly like you! When a super-unique piece (be it a bag or something else) that is just perfectly "me" (my style, my vibe) is available I will jump on it without hesitation. Much better to have one expensive perfect piece that you will love and that is just "you", than a closet full of cheaper pieces that are nice enough but don't fit your style as well.
Not everyone thinks that way, and there's no right or wrong here, but it's interesting to see how different people approach similar situations.
I find it funny how many of us TPF'ers are having a similar discussion around the forums about consumption and the seemingly endless carousel of consumption we all get on and off at various times ( off the top of my head- I had a FOMO thread ages ago, there's a brilliant thread on Editing your bag closet that is currently active, and there are the threads on Shopping your own bag/ clothes collections). A lot of very insightful posts made all over about this topic.
Enjoy your beauty and I look forward to seeing everyone's reveals. This sale seems to have had a lot of unique pieces (Rotarde as an example) so the reveals are gonna be awesome!
