I am completely new to buying Balenciaga and am really excited that I can finally afford it. I have never purchased a bag that has cost more than say $120 so this is quite a big investment for me. I live in the UK fairly near London. So I can either buy off of the UK website or head into London and go to the Balenciaga shop or Harrods, Selfridges etc wherever they sell Bal.
I'm extremely torn between getting a part time or a city. I am 5ft 9in and of normal build so I want the bag to look appropriate on me. I won't be using my Bbag for work because i'm a nurse and there's no way i'd risk leaving it in my locker. So it'll just be for when i'm off work and i'll just be needing carry my iPhone, wallet, keys, etc.
I could head into London and see what I think of the city or part time in person but to be honest i'm a bit nervous about it. I have never purchased anything designer before so i'm worried that i'll just embarrass myself or the sales assistants won't be very friendly. I don't wear 'expensive' clothes and am 23 years old so I get worried they might not take me seriously in the shop.
As I don't know much about Balenciaga, do places like Harrods, Selfridges, the Bal store stock most styles of the bags all the time? Say for instance if I wanted a black gsh part time would they most likely have that in stock the majority of the time?
My next dilemma is if I get a black gsh part time or city, I would also like another bag with a pop of colour like bleu lavande or something else so I was considering getting that. But it worries me that it wouldn't go well with my wardrobe. I am a Topshop girl when it comes to clothes. I tend to live in skinny jeans with ballet pump or knee high boots and quite plain tops with scarves or style it up with jewellery. I wear a lot of beige, black and grey. Hence why i'd like a pop of colour as well as a basic black bag!
If anyone could give me some advice i'd really appreciate it, i've got all these questions going around in my head. As it is a big purchase I don't want to make a mistake and get the wrong thing and regret it.
Anyway hopefully soon i'll have my first reveal photos to post!
Thanks in advance.
