The Secret Shopaholics Thread #6

Hi girls,

I’m visiting Paris for the first time and I was planning to go for a week on Christmas and New Years time but found out the sale starts on January 8th.

My question is: is the sale worth it to skip Christmas time? I wanna have fun and explore the city but I’m also interested in shopping.

I’m mainly into vintage and unique pieces, I wanna shop in consignment and thrift stores and local boutiques, and I’m not interested in Zara and such because we have them in Egypt.

Also I wanna buy a few brand pieces/bags.

Will the outlets have more sale on sale time or same prices? Is the Hermes sale in January worth waiting?

Help a girl out pls xx

 

Whilst visiting my parents, my mom destroyed my Y-3 Sport jacket bc she didn't follow the care instructions (all the taped seams came undone under high heat in the dryer ).... This means my shopping moratorium has ended!

I am obsessed with HUGO by Hugo Boss for quite some time now and already spent a good amount of money on their app I got a promotion fairly recently and want to order some more stuff but so far I was able to resist

 

I just bought several MISBHV items that were on sale but as I am trying to spend less money I only ordered accessories

^^^...and not a single cent spent on Clorox wipes & Purell.

My part of the USA is out of Purell (seriously)....

 

If you have Venmo, I'll sell & send you a few bottles. Ten bucks a pop.

 

My local Costco is supposed to get a shipment "soon".... But, I'll keep your offer in mind....
