Fridays are always a dangerous shopping night for me – I’m busy working on the finishing touches to my Friday video but there are always lull periods where I’m waiting for things to upload, process etc. Needless to say, a LOT of online shopping gets done! I was browsing Vestiaire Collective and noticed that they are offering 10% extra off with the code ‘GET10’. This means some serious bargains! I was SO close to pulling the trigger on a like-new Louis Vuitton Capucines MM in Galet for £1800 (yup, you read that right – almost half off retail…) but I managed to *just* talk myself out of it, reasoning that I know I need a long strap otherwise it doesn’t get reached for….
I wanted to highlight it in case anyone is looking for the Capaucines in the MM size. It’s a serious steal so snap it up if you are! I was also eyeing up this gorgeous lilac coloured Prada Double Tote (if you read my last handbag wishlist post you’ll notice both feature haha! Always bags on the brain…) and I probably would have pulled the trigger only it’s missing the luggage tag 🙁
Whilst I still don’t favour VC for selling because of their high commission rates, there is no doubt they have some amazing choice for buyers so if you’re on the lookout for something in particular, I’d recommend having a peek – you might be able to grab a bargain!
**EDIT** There are some super cute Givenchy Antigonas too! Opinions on navy?
wow great bargains – but I wish VC was more buyer friendly too…
have you ever considered Chanel Executive tote? they look similar and has a shoulder strap, I know if you like it you've probably talked about it or bought it already but would you please give me some of your opinion on why you haven't considered it? :)))
I can't say I have – I think it's beautiful but very corporate and structured which isn't really something I gravitate towards. Very lovely all the same though!
I see 🙂 thank you for replying! I don't know why but whenever I'm stressed and watch your channel or look at your blog it makes me feel less stress
Because cerf has a long (kind of) strap so it seems to fit in your category, but as it gets older it gets softer and not as structured anymore which I'm a bit worried because I'm more of a boxy structured bag kind of type
Another warning though, I've seen quite a few fakes (and a lot of people on purseforum shared their experiences about it) on vestiairecollective so be sure to check and get them authenticated first 🙂 I'm sure you do anyways
Dear Amie:
I agree with you that VC is not good for selling because of their high commission rates. Could you please recommend me another site? I want to sell my LV Pochette Metis that I bought three months ago and they offer me so little… Many thanks in advance and thank you for sharing all your knowledge and good taste for bags. You are the best!!
