I enjoy looking for vintage bags at thrift stores, flea markets, garage sales, etc. and I am very thankful to the wonderful TPF authenticators that have helped me to identify the fakes and feel confident in the authenticity of the genuine articles!
So far I've picked up 3 vintage Dior items at thrift stores, I wasn't specifically looking for any of them but they just found me! See the pictures below.
The first one is a convertible clutch that KellyNG couldn't conclusively authenticate, but it was her opinion that it is a genuine vintage Dior clutch in excellent condition. I got it at the Goodwill Store for $3.
KellyNG confirmed the second fabric bag as genuine. I bought it at Savers for $5.25 (It's marked $6.99 but I had a coupon!)
The third item is a cosmetic bag that I picked up at the Salvation Army store yesterday for only 46 cents! It has been authenticated by eminere. I am looking forward to cleaning it up and using it for my cosmetics.
So far my Dior collection is pretty small but they are all beautiful and special pieces that I enjoy very much, and the entire collection has cost me a total of $8.71!
I just wanted to share my modest collection and send my thanks to KellyNG and eminere and all the TPF authenticators!
