Ban island escape artist

Now that I am on ban island again (and rightfully so 💸), I figure I'd revisit my handbag and luxe journey to discourage myself from another escapade

I hope y'all enjoy these pics as much as I do taking them~

This is also my first time making a thread here, so please excuse any issues/technical difficulties
 
It's only fair to begin with the bag that started it all:

Louis Vuitton Sperone BB in Damier Azur canvas

I saw this bag on someone at a boba tea shop, and it lived rent-free in my mind for a while. Then, on my first trip to Paris several months later, I decided to ask about it at the store there. That was actually only my second time in a high fashion store 🤯

Lo and behold, they had one in stock, so I bought it immediately, and I have enjoyed it ever since. I eventually picked up a matching Victorine wallet, too

This was my most valuable possession, until..
 
During the same Paris trip, I accompanied my friend into a Chanel boutique. Having just spent at LV, I was hesitant to buy another designer bag so soon. However, I just kept thinking about the soft lambskin chevron quilting on shiny Trendy plate on this WOC.. so we had to stop by again later in the trip to pick her up.

It's ok (not for my wallet). Both bags are still well loved :love:
