Fashion Review: Furla Merletto Bag
The cutest bag you ever did see.
I
am not a bag person - I would rather get myself a pretty dress rather
than a bag, anytime. In fact, I am not a shoe person either.
Accessories are just not what matters the most to me. However, I do
like to invest in good staples; in this case, bags that I will wear
time and time again and that will last me years. How to invest in a
quality bag without breaking the bank (and your heart as you look at
your account)? Always - and only - buy during the sales.
This
Furla bag is my third hig-end bag purchase that I have made during
sales over the last couple years, and although I do know that it is
still a luxury for me to be able to do that, it saved me a lot of
money each time. I got the bag from the Galeries
Lafayette website a couple weeks ago, and it was 30% off -
making me save 90€.
I
wanted a pastel pink bag as I love this shade (obviously) but also
because it is a light colour that I can wear with a lot of different
outfits in the spring and summer. The scalloped edges are a little
twist on the classic square shape of the bag. Needless to say, I
always go for timeless models as I want the bag to last me through
the years no matter what the current trends are.
The
leather is super soft, so has to be taken care of (you can't throw it
around or hit people with it) and of course light leather can get
stained easily, even with a slight touch, so basically you would have
to cherish it like your first born child. Other than that, the details are
beautiful, the stitches on the scallops are super neat and the
laser-cut Furla sign at the front is neat and clear as well. I know I
will be wearing this bag a lot and I've had loads of compliments on
it already, so definitely worth browsing a few dozen pages of the sale
section!
Do you invest in key items during the sales?
