Sooo. . . I went for two mitzas for my book tote and left with sneakers and a scarf as well. (Also got a Birkin, but that’s a different thread. Why does Hermes and Dior have to be practically next door to each other!). Back to ban island FOR REAL!

Finally found a Lady Dior that I couldn't pass up! I was lucky enough to see these before they hit the floor on the 1st. I almost went for the orange since orange and blue are my favorite color but decided I'd get more use out of the blue. This line is stunning in person if you like bright colors

Even though this bag colourway/print was the least popular one in my earlier poll, I went to the store to try them on and ended up liking this one the most! Somehow the multicolour constellation didn’t look ‘right’ on me…(and the red monster on the top of the bag featured more prominently than I would’ve personally liked). So here’s the newest member of the fam !

I went to Bicester Village today with one of my best friends to spend the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee with some retail therapy. Honestly, my sole intention was to pick up a Dior strap for my Saddle bag. I had done my research, and knew the Dior outlet in Bicester definitely had some in stock, and that was the only place I could justify buying one of these.
We got to the boutique, and after trying on a few straps, I had, ostensibly decided on an Ocean Blue adjustable strap that went well with my denim blue Saddle.
However, my roving eyes settled on the bags on sale. There were a number of Saddles, Book Totes, and Diorcamps in the seasonal camouflage in navy and white.
But I was shocked to find a bag I had always had my eye on, but never pulled the trigger on. They had the 30 Montaigne Chain bags in stock! They had four on display - in black, rose gold, champagne beige and denim blue, all in gorgeous Microcannage calfskin. My bestie both ended up falling in love with the bags, and she got one in denim blue.
I on the other hand, was enamoured by the champagne beige. All thoughts of the strap went out the window (I mean, bag, vs a bag strap seemed like a no-brainer!) and I ended up pulling the trigger!
Presenting my new 30 Montaigne Chain bag in champagne beige Microcannage calfskin!
I’m honestly so in love with this beautiful find!

What a wonderful stroke of good luck! Congrats on a lovely bag!
Congratulations! May I ask what the discount was compared to the regular price?
Mod pics, please!
Thank you @averagejoe
It was £1,918 marked down from £2,950. On top of that I had an Amex offer for 10% off purchases at Bicester Village!
I couldn’t wait to wear my new ecru beauty out (I confirmed with the boutique that this was the official colour name) and went out shopping with my friend yesterday with the bag.

It was! I’m so glad I took the bag instead of the bag strap.
Loooove your bag. It’s a limited edition. They made a few of those bags this year and then stopped production. They won’t unretire that particular design and bring it back again a few years later. You can always ask your SA how many of these were shipped to your country to get an idea of relative rarity of your particular bag. With limited edition bags Dior does not always make the same number of bags for each new design. Dior bags do not hold their value unfortunately so even something as fabulous as this will sell at a substantial discount to the retail price if you wanted to sell it later on.
I literally just saw this bag on a vlog by a youtuber i follow (handbagholic). It is stunning!!!! She also showed a cream/ivory version that made me gasp. Congratulations! She's a beauty!!!
