Hello Ladies,
I have been battling over this for quite some time now, should I buy the coral valentine's purse or not?
I fell in love with the idea of a Valentine's purse back in August when the SA helping me told me she had a cute purse for someone young like me. I still love the idea of the Valentine's purse but it will wipe out my savings (this is purse/clothing/shoes savings, don't worry I have money for my, rent and food!)
I am eighteen years old so I have not been too worried about being too old for it but I am wondering if it's a smart investment/purchase. My current collection consists of three jumbos (navy, red and black) and a WOC. You may see photos of it here: http://forum.purseblog.com/chanel/my-chanel-purses-411912.html
Here are some reaons why I feel I shouldn't purchase it:
- I am feeling the purse doesn't really suit me, I dress 'mature' for my age, alot of 3.1 phillip lim, rebecca taylor, nanette lepore, teenflo... The purse seems like something Paris would carry!
- It's very seasonal
- It would wipe out my savings, no money for spring clothes
- I still have a few other purses on my wishlist (225/226 reissue and a cerf)
- Chanel is a classic brand
- Not very high fashion, more cutesy
Reasons why I should purchase it:
- Cute and very different
- My parents will still buy me some new spring clothes
- All my purses are practical
- I wanted it for so long
Am I better to buy some spring clothes, save a bit more and buy a reissue?
or
Buy the V-day purse?
Please help me I am going crazy, worried that I am making the worng decisions passing this purse up!
