LV in Australia

I’m in soooo much trouble (first world and not serious) and need advice. I just saw that NF in Galet is coming out in August. But I only just got a NF DE in June (and adore it). However, I absolutely need a Galet Epi one too. I got excited when I saw the photo.. it is so classy!

My issue is that I’m on ban island until the end of the year when I will get my first Chanel as a graduation gift.

I use totes daily for work and only have 2: the LV and a Burberry. Surely a third is justified? I don’t want to push my luck with my husband and lose my future Chanel! We share our accounts so have to agree with each other prior to making large purchases. :confused1:
Of course justifiable. And also depends how much you like it and will you be super sad and regret it if you couldn’t get it. If the answer is YES!... :graucho: then you should get it before it goes away. Is it a seasonal colour?,.. and I’m gathering yes it is then you should. And if you use it for work, and have a need and purpose, and you go to work to earn money then of course it’s for a purpose too. I Know, I may not be that helpful, lol but you get the idea. I have a few small crossbody bags, and they all serve a purpose and I use them so it’s not a waste. I explain to hubby the use and get his input and opinion and he understands. Also have you made many purchases this year? If not, then one bag Should ok. I reckon you should also explain it to him, that you know you already have two totes, but this is also go for these reasons..... and the Chanel is for a graduation gift so that doesn’t count. Good luck with your discussions.

Somehow, this year it’s hard to be on ban island considering what’s happening around us, and sometimes a bag is a nice cheer me up, pick me up for times like these even though it may only be used grocery shopping Hehe I know for me it is. I got a mini boite chapeau reverse from hubby for my bday, and was so excited and happy. It doesn’t fit my phone and not much, but I love it and it’s adorable and hubby thinks so too. I’ve also been thinking to treat myself to a run around bag that can fit my phone, but still undecided on a few items. So of course, it’s always allowed for us to dream, plan, buy another bag! Good luck and let me know how you go. The Galet epi is such a gorgeous colour!

Some new or hot items they can only hold for 1-2 days, but for some items they can hold for several days - don't really know the criteria, I guess it's up to the sa and the manager's discretion. I once have a bag on hold for an entire week because I was away from Sydney.
That’s good to know. Because CS keep saying to me no holds, no holds. First in first serve, but somehow I didn’t believe that to be the case.
 
Has anyone been seeing hard to find Items become available online lately? I haven’t seen anything pop up in ages and this time last year I was able to get toiletry pouches, key pouches, pochette Métis etc. all online. I’m happy to wait for things to become available but it feels pointless unless you call CS or go in store every day which I’m not prepared to do.
 
Happy Monday fellow aussies! Just thought. I’ll ask has anyone been able to score the nano nice and is it worth persuing to try and hunt one down?

Also as a fun question what is everyone stalking/waiting/buying/thinking to get next? Or on your waitlist? Thought it would be fun to ask.

I think if it’s something you HAVE to have and really adore, you should purchase it. If you can afford to add on another bag and it doesn’t affect your financial goals/savings etc, why not? Also, you don’t want to purchase it via reseller later for an inflated price.
The Chanel doesn’t count :lol: she’s a graduation present, and therefore exempt from your purchase history Hahahah.

Nope, unfortunately haven’t seen anything. I’m forever stalking for fun. I don’t even really want any HTF items currently. Are you looking for something in particular?

Morning Bumbles :wave: I like your fun question. I could go on and on with my list. For LV I have my eye on the Bond St bb and that monogram speedy and toiletry from the new Cruise collection. I was also hoping for news on the My World Tour pochette metis but still nothing. I’m glad you guys told me to get the Chanel instead (not that I can take it anywhere being stuck in Melbourne). What’s on your LV list? You’re searching high and low for an everyday, mini bag, right?

Hi @IloveplantsandLV yes totally, you remembered! Still looking but taking my time because we have so much time on our hands :lol: and want to get something good that will be useful. Don’t want to be sweep up in the hype of new bags, and then chasing it and then finding out it doesn‘t suit my lifestyle or too small or just wrong. I’m glad you got the Chanel. Totally worth it and it makes you happy and brings a smile to you face. Don’t worry, when all this settles you will be able to take it out and use it, so all good. Now, all we can do is take good care of ourselves, and a little bit less of going out to get the long term gains right?;) Besides, you can use it around your house, and use it like your daily bag, and put on your table, where you can see it and it’s nice and clean. Even better!

You LV Wishlist sounds great. Bond st bb is super cute. Would you go one with the pink stripe? That looks devine. And yes speedy mono 25 B is on my list too. I have a speedy 30 DE, but wish I had gotten the B at the time, so now it’s always on my list too. Now my wishlist is: vanity pm, maybe petite sac plat (mono), but uncertain abt the size, men’s nano keepall or whatever it maybe called. With cruise collection I’m undecided, maybe nothing, and nothing has caught my eye with Christmas animation. I’m also thinking should I get the Nano nice too, but haven’t see many people with it. So not sure if worth it.

Anyway, hope you have a lovely week ahead. Take care and stay safe. Happy Monday!:flowers:

I have only 1 item on my wishlist and it is the Khaki multi pochette strap that is about to be released soon :smile: with Melbourne under lock down there is really no where to go with pretty bags ha ha :smile:

I saw toiletry pouches pop up online last week some time around noon. other than that nothing online so far, but many of my friends have been lucky to score hard to find slgs in store recently.

I hope things open up soon for you guys when it’s safe to do so. Do you have the multi pochette already? I would love to get the rose Clair one but nothing available.

Yeah lock down is for another 4 weeks :( Any way yes i have the multi pochette in rose claire, my sister bought it for me from the US and brought it here early this year.

Am thinking of getting the khaki strap alone so i can mix and match :)

MPA available in plentiful in the US.

Yeah I know right? They should order and stock some down here for us. We always miss out!! You’re so lucky your sis got it for you. Do you enjoy it and gets heaps of use out of it? It must be so pretty in real life. You have 2 of my Wishlist bags, that and the vanity pm. I hope you can get the khaki strap when things open up or else online.
