With all the sales that have sprung up since after Thanksgiving, many of us have bought and returned and bought and returned bags from Chloé and other designers and continue to do so as sales progress. The question is, what is your Holiday Handbag Rundown? That is, what did you get, returned and eventually kept? Let me start:
From Aloha Rag
* Chloé Edith Shopper in Ivoire (final sale, non-returnable so it stays with me)
From Neiman Marcus
* Chloé Patsy Wallet in Brown - keeping!
* Chloé Edith in Muscade - keeping but Sister-In-Law wants to wrangle it from me
* Chloé Tracy in solid colour Whiskey Medium - NM sent me a MiuMiu bag instead! The MiuMiu was returned, and I changed my mind on the Medium Tracy
* Chloé Large Tracy in solid colour Chocolate - this was an alternative to the one I got from Nordstrom in case Nordies won't price match. Nordies won't match, so this bag is a KEEPER.
From Bergdorf Goodman
* Chloé Edith Shopper in Dark Brown - they sent an Ivory one instead! So it went back to the warehouse.
Saks
* Chloé Paddington in Muscade with Shoulder Straps - was a great deal for $629 but the zippers were stuck and wouldn't open all the way. Went back to the warehouse.
* Chloé Tracy in Whiskey/Taupe - straps too short and inside too narrow for my needs. Offloading.
Nordstrom
* Chloé Large Tracy in solid colour chocolate - identical to the one from NM, only it's at full price of $1,660.00 and they refuse to do a price match so this baby is going back.
eBay
* Chloé Large Zippy Paddington in Gris-Vert - DEFINITELY KEEPING!
Printemps in Paris
* Chloé Small Paddington wallet in Bleu Nuit - Keeping
So I guess 4 (possibly 3) bags and 2 wallets out of 10 is not bad. No other name brand for me this December, it was Chloé all the way
