There is nothing I love more than finding steals. And about 15 minutes ago, I’m sure my heart raced at 152 bts/min as I frantically tried to key in my credit card and shipping details.
There was a private Stella McCartney for LeSportsac sale on RueLaLa. It started at 11pm, or about an hour and a half ago. I received the email reminder shortly after it was open and after I logged in almost a third of the bags were sold out. Now I did not have any intention of buying any bag tonight. I had not been doing research on various LeSportsac bags and I certainly have no idea what all the various models are called, like the Tokidoki for example, how ugly is that?
But the minute I scrolled and saw this beauty, and very quickly checked overall dimensions with my tape measure, I was scrambling for my wallet.
I didn’t even check through all the various enlarged views to see how many pockets it had, and I didn’t realise it was more pink than champagne, or that it had quilted flowers, or that it had a colourful inlay. No time no time, not when there were only three left in stock.
The shoe compartment was the first thing I noticed though.. yep still not over that phase yet.
Anyway with the shipping and everything I think it’ll cost me about S$250. Ok still a pretty penny, but what a pretty bag!
