Okay, so I’ve been eyeing the Goyard vanity bag for a while now. It’s just so classic and chic, you know? I finally decided to take the plunge and actually get one. Let me tell you, the whole process was quite an experience!
The Hunt
First off, finding one wasn’t as easy as I thought it would be. I went to a few stores, called a bunch of shops. They are not widely stocked. Finally, I found one at a boutique a couple of hours away.
Making the Trip
I cleared my schedule and drove to the boutique. The anticipation was killing me! When I finally got there, I went straight to the handbag section. And there it was, in all its glory. I asked the sales associate to see it, and she carefully took it out of the display.
First Impressions
Holding it in my hands, I immediately noticed how lightweight it was. The craftsmanship was amazing, just perfect. The iconic Goyardine canvas felt sturdy, and the leather trim added a touch of luxury. I inspected every inch, opened and closed the zipper a few times, and even imagined what I’d put inside.
The Purchase
I knew right then and there that I had to have it. I asked about the price, and yes, it was a bit of a splurge. I thought about whether I should buy it. I mean, these bags are known for holding their value, so it’s not a bad investment, right? They say that they are re-selling heavily used for more than the original price! It’s like the price only goes up yearly. According to a resale platform, Goyard had a 104% retention rate, even beating Hermès. Eventually, I decided to go for it. I swiped my card, and just like that, it was mine!
Living With It
I’ve been using my Goyard vanity bag for a few weeks now, and I’m absolutely loving it. It’s surprisingly spacious and fits all my essentials. I’ve gotten so many compliments on it, too. People always ask me where I got it, and I love telling them the story.
Final Thoughts
Getting this Goyard vanity bag was a whole journey, from the initial hunt to finally making the purchase. It’s more than just a bag; it’s a statement piece. And honestly, knowing that it’s a good investment makes me feel even better about my decision. If you’re thinking about getting one, I say go for it! You won’t regret it.
- Would I recommend it? Absolutely!
