I BOUGHT MY FIRST CHANEL BAG!

PHOTOGRAPHY BY: MICHAEL BIRO, globalgarcon.net

If you follow me on Instagram you’ll have seen pictures of me rocking this amazing patent leather Chanel jumbo. I borrowed it from Love That Bag, a Montreal based luxury consignment store for a photoshoot. When it came time to return it I started to get some severe fashion fomo (definition here). So what did I do? Called up the ladies at LTB and told them to send me an invoice!

When it comes to buying luxury consignment it’s important to find a place that has a strict authenticity process because there are so many sophisticated fakes out there that fly under the radar. My advice is to take your time and do your homework. I once bought a used Celine bag that was more beautiful on the website than in person and when I tried to contact the store for a refund, they wouldn’t respond. I came to resent the bag and ended up selling it for a cheaper price to reflect the condition of the purse.
