Since I've been hanging out in this subforum for a while now and have bought a few Michael Kors pieces I thought I would start a thread for what I've bought so far. I used to be really into Gucci and Coach but have started to become more interested in Burberry and Michael Kors recently. Thanks for stopping by my thread! :smile1:

This is a group shot of the pieces I have so far. I'll include close ups and the backstory for the pieces in individual posts.

This was the first Michael Kors piece that I bought. I originally bought it in gold but returned it for gunmetal because I thought it would work better for me. I bought it at Marshalls for $89.99 and the gold was $79.99. I saw both colors at TJ's today for $79.99 and I've also seen them at the outlet but I don't remember the price.

This was the second MK item I bought. I was looking for a pair of affordable aviators because I wanted to see if I liked the style before splurging on a pair of Tom Ford's but now that I have these I don't think I want the Tom Ford's anymore! I originally bought them at TJ's for $19.99 but returned them when I bought my current pair at Nordstrom Rack for $19.97 with the case included.

I was at one of my local TJ's (I don't live there, I promise!) and saw this on clearance for $39. I knew it was a good deal and carried it around the store while I considered purchasing it, but in the end I decided that it was just too small for me. I later read Restore724's reveal thread and saw her Hamilton crossbody and I immediately started to regret not buying it. I went back to that same TJ's but of course it wasn't there anymore. Imagine my surprise when I went back this weekend and it was there! I don't know if it had been there all along but was hidden under all the bigger purses, was placed in another department (you know how things can sometimes be all over the place in TJ's, Marshalls, etc) or was returned by another shopper. Either way, I was not going to make the same mistake twice so I bought it this time. I'm still on the fence as to whether it's too small but I'm leaning towards keeping it.

I've been going through a watch phase recently, and I bought this watch from Lord and Taylor http://www.lordandtaylor.com/eng/je...ne_Stainless_Steel_Watch-lordandtaylor/148081. However, when it arrived the face was too big for me and it didn't really look in person the way it did on the website so I returned it. I looked around at lots of other sites and fell in love with this watch http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/michael...watch/2947861?origin=category&resultback=5798. I didn't really want to pay full price for it so I decided I would either wait until it went on sale or would buy it during a F&F event, etc where I could get a discount on it. I was so happy to see it on sale at Overstock.com but whenever I tried to buy it it was already sold out. I got lucky and checked one day early in the morning when I was getting ready for work and was able to get it for $149 and free shipping. It was a little bit loose on me so I took it to my local Fossil outlet (since they make Michael Kors watches) and they were very friendly and took a link out for me for free. It fits perfectly and I absolutely love it and recommend it if anyone is considering buying it.

For $39 it's a keeper!
 
I saw that clutch at TJ Maxx as well and carried it around; kind of regretting not getting it. The leather was so smooshy and wonderful.
Love all the pieces!

Thank you! I think I mentioned that I saw two of the clutches at TJ's so you might be able to find one there now if you still want one. It's the first time I saw them since I bought mine so hopefully you'll get lucky :smile1:
