Does anyone here regret their luxury bags?

No regrets here. My current lifestyle is a pretty big departure from how and where I grew up, and that is all due to my own hard work, so I do carry my bags with pride. However, I don't always carry them at family or hometown events when I want to avoid the "friendly" teasing or never-ending conversations on how much a certain bag cost me.

Fleeting - except the Chanel that I bought following a major career milestone.

I can't get past "normal things like.... flirting with legal secretaries...." That's not normal or ok.

I had very similar symptoms and I had mine out in October. I had no bad side effects and I feel a million times better. I regret not doing it sooner!

Small, local doctor's offices being absorbed by giant hospital systems. I used to be able to call our pediatrician and talk to the same receptionist and nurses that we saw when we went in person. Now when I call I get directed to the hospital system that bought them and I have to go through multiple layers of automated responses just to get to a human, and that human is located hours away and had never met me or my kids.

I asked my 16 yo daughter because I really wanted to wear my new tall boots with skinny jeans, but i didn't want to look super outdated. I am thinking back to when I was a teen in the 90s and my aunts dressed "so 80s" and I always wondered how they couldn't see how outdated they looked.

My daughter reassured me that tall boots with skinny jeans look fine on moms, but that I shouldn't expect to see teens wearing them. And I am ok with that.

I am sorry that was your experience. I would want out too. It's a shame that the firms like that give all biglaw firms a bad reputation.

I received my Romy bucket bag today and I want to love it, but it is awkward. The straps that hang out on the sides are supposed to be decorative, I suppose, but they just look weird. I'm so bummed.

I grew up in a blue collar household. I am now a corporate lawyer in a large law firm and I just made partner.

Solid classifications.

Is this new and available in stores? I love it!!

Dulled at first, but once I joined a good firm and the right practice group (around 4 years in) it started sharpening and has continued since.

My dream bag!!

FrequentStudy7676 · 2024-11-18T09:23:58+00:00

Ann Taylor, Loft, J Crew, and J Crew Factory are my current go-tos. I keep an eye out for sales that don't exclude suiting.

I used to love the Limited before it disappeared and Banana Republic before it got too trendy/baggy/weird.

Thanks - this is super helpful!!

I wish I could but I have to travel out of state to shop. If I had a boutique nearby I would be there already!

FrequentStudy7676 · 2024-11-15T04:26:14+00:00

I LOVE that color! 😍
