old friends

Despite its many battle wounds, I’m not sure when I’ll be ready to part with this Balenciaga bag. It was already beaten up (pre-loved :)) when I got it off eBay half a decade ago. Yet you so rarely see this color in the handbag world that I keep putting off its retirement.

Speaking of bags, have any of you ever tried Bag, Borrow, or Steal? I went through a phase of a few months where I was borrowing all these gorgeous bags at a pretty reasonable price. Walking around with a brand new Chloe or Dior bag made me feel way more glamorous than usual.

So, I was loving this loaner situation to say the least. That is until someone in a DC gas station decided to steal my borrowed bag out of the rental car. Still makes me cringe. Moral of the story: spring for the insurance.

Anyways, happy election day everyone. xox.
