Thanks so much! Now I need to buy something fancy enough to wear with my Kelly 😋Congratulations!!!! That is such a beautiful bag! If you see a fellow shopper creepily admiring your bag in the boutique…it might be meWear her in the best of health and can’t wait for the action pics if I don’t run into you at the boutique!!
Agreed. California is like this too. I got several great quota bags before a B25 in a neutral. And I also got told to visit the store more.I am not in your area but in NYC where IMO it’s 4-5X for a B25 neutral. Unfortunately, if it’s your SA or store policy to discuss when you are closer to the target, it sounds like it’s really 3-4X. Reading the threads, I also think PNW is quite competitive. Nowadays I think that seems to be the norm in the US, though there have been exceptions. I think of 15K as 1.5X, and I don’t know of many instances where there has been success at 2X. While your SA may have been a bit abrupt, I agree with a post upthread that she might have been trying, perhaps not as tactfully as she should have been, to reset your expectations. So, there may be some way to go. Good luck.
ETA: I agree with @EdgyBagsPlz , that it could be quite a long wait if you would prefer to go at a slower pace. If however, your SA thinks you want something before the end of this calendar year or first half of next year, she might be pushing a bit so she can position you favorably. You should of course make it clear if you are willing to waitAlso, from my own experience, sellier is longer; 25B was longer than 25K. But, everyone is different, ymmv.
You can rock your beautiful bag even with simple classics like t shirt, jeans and sneakers. Definitely do not need to save your bag for special occasions. That being said, I am always supportive of fellow TPFers buying RTW!
I'm afraid I will only leave details regarding the color as a warm toned non-neutral as Bellevue seems to get almost exclusively neutrals for bags and any further details might identify me. I hope you can understand...
No worries. That’s true, it’s a small world. Understandable concern.
I also don’t post all my purchases here for the same reason.
I usually wear my H bags with jeans/casual clothing! Even my H RTW is on the low-key side!
I just saw that our New York TPFers posted about being invited to a sale. London and Toronto just had their sales. I was curious if we have a sale for our location too?
It’s usually flagship locations where they pick the citys. The event doesn’t happen in stores usually offsite. Invite is from corporate.
@spankiefrankie thank you for clarifying it’s usually flagship city locations! From the other posts it seems it can be a bit of a madhouse too. I love RTW so I was just wishfully hoping they would host a sale for us PNWers lol.
Did anyone else attend the made to measure event last week? I was surprised they had passed appetizers and custom cocktails!
No I wasn’t there, but I’m glad they added a little zhuzh! maybe they read our earlier posts about our boutique events not having some flair hahah. Hope you had a wonderful time!
I didn’t go for the event but happened to be there that day. I was surprised by the catering service. Nice! Finally
