'Fess up, what'd you all buy to beat the increase?

[disney4us]

With the price increase, I know many of us planned some last minute purchases. I have been wanting a new bag but I'm not quite ready to take the plunge so I decided to wait it out. It'll be my most expensive bag so I want to research more and see if I feel the same a few months down the line. I did a little something but that hasn't come in yet so I'll wait to post that. Confession time! What did you all get to beat the price increase?

Too many scarves!!

I have a new Kelly Pochette in hand and I'm awaiting a decision on a new Massai - other than that, a few scarves, but no other major purchases.

I wanted to get some things, but it came at a really bad time for me-- I'm really busy with my thesis right now (hence why I'm not posting so much) and I just don't have that much time to shop or even think about it!

...Unfortunately my thesis is due right as the increase happens. I guess I'll have to get myself a little something to celebrate then, regardless...

Congrats!! you found one! Love it?

Thanks for remembering! It is quite beautiful, but seems so fragile that I haven't used it yet -- it is silk/cotton and soooo sheer.

A Birkin....

Nothing and I actually told my SA that the price increases are absolutely unreasonable and that I wasn't planning on buying anything else. Au Revoir Hermès.

I hope to take Constance home on Sunday.

Scarf ring, vintage scarf and a pocket scarf. Won't be buying much more though as can't justify spending over £200 on a bit of silk (even if it IS hand rolled). Instead of buying 4 or 5 a year, it'll only be one (and only if I really, really love the design).

 

[kipp]

Quite a few scarves and a ficelle lizard 25 birkin... (Yea!!!)
