Just curious. I ventured into the world of Mulberry just over two years ago and have owned quite a few now between my current bag collection and others that have been moved on to make way for new purchases, plus quite a few accessories. I still love the brand's designs but am feeling increasingly resentful about paying their ridiculous prices - soon, with the impending price increase, I shall be priced out of buying Mulberry completely for brand-new purchases and will only be able to buy preloved.
I am now finding myself looking more and more at makes that I wouldn't previously have considered, like LV. I bought a Speedy 30 last week in the damier print for £450 and am so impressed with the quality of the stitching, finishing etc. I know it isn't leather and that would previously have put me off, but even the smaller leather shoulder bags in the Mulberry range like Lily are just under £500. Buying Mulberry was always a luxury for me so it seems silly to talk about 'value for money' but I no longer feel that buying it represents the best that I can get for the money I am prepared to spend. I have never been a one brand sort of person and have bags by a few different makes in my collection, but previously 9 times out of 10 I would have chosen Mulberry as I just love the styles... still love the styles and aesthetic but not so much the price or clear decreases in quality
Does anyone else feel like this? Are you still feeling the same love as before? Do you feel more inclined to look at other makes?
