I'm holding out until the fall...I'm planning on going a little hog wild on a trip to Europe...Using "Shopper's Math," I'm going to spend a little under $5000 there to save almost $2500 over what I would have paid in Boston, MA.
What and how many bags you bought this year?!

I loooove shoppers math!
Oh the red on that Antigona! (And I don't even particularly like the style)
And the YSL is lovely as well. A classic piece.
So far, I have been good this year. I have only purchased one bag (Small Chloe Faye in suede, color: Cloudy Blue). I am saving most of my money to spend in the boutiques when I go to NYC this summer.
After being super good last year (2-3 designer bags max for the whole year), I'm now compensating with a total rebound buying spree! Five months in, I've bought something like 8 bags already (and eyeing another right now). In the past 2 months alone, I've bought a Chanel m/l classic flap, Celine micro luggage, Celine medium Sangle, Chloe Nile and a Gucci black disco!
Thing is, I love all of them and don't regret any of the purchases! (I'm not in debt for them either although the money could definitely be spent more wisely! [emoji15]) #anothertotalbagaddict. I "say" I'm going on ban island indefinitely but I know I don't have the resolve!

I've been very good so far this year - just two!
A black Chanel Jumbo Flap (caviar and gold hardware) and a black Hermes Evelyne PM (clemence)
I'm also waiting on an Hermes special order Kelly that I was told would arrive in June... fingers crossed!!

Ugh. I wish I didn't evaluate what I have bought this year *lol* I went a little nuts so I am on banned banned banned island now (especially since my sweet kitty was just diagnosed with a lymphoma).
Secondhand I bought a Hermes Victoria Cabas tote in Bleu Abysse from Ann's Fabulous Closeouts pre-owned. I thought for shorter business trips it would make a nice under the radar computer bag and it was in such nice condition.
Secondhand I also bought a Hermes Halzan in Etain from Fashionphile. It was also in really excellent condition. I had been wanting a Halzan for awhile but just couldn't stomach the US boutique prices.
Around the same time I also bought from Fashionphile a secondhand Dogon wallet in Ciel -
Next I went to Paris on a business trip and ended up staying longer for vacation. I had a lot of success with some dream buys which pushed me over the edge this year for purchases.
2 bags from George V store - a barenia Halzan (was a big goal for me to get this in barenia) and a rouge casaque epsom garden party.
Next a daily battle zip from Faure le Page (love this bag!)
A Moynat Limousine in Parme
And when I left France, I went to the boutique to see if I could get the last bag on my list - a Jige.
My money tree will now need to be replenished and tended to... but I am so thrilled I have so much to play with for the time I will be banned from new purchases.
