For ppl that have the chanel classic flap, do you feel hesitant to wear it out as prices increase over the years? My friend says that when the flap was around $2K back in 2012 she found herself using it almost every day. Now, when the purse is like $7K she found it sitting in the closet more often. Taste and preferences haven’t changed but I feel like it’s a subconscious feeling of not being able to feel as confident and “work it” when wealth has not grown in that trajectory. Does anyone relate

I don’t have it, but it’s one I’ve loved and wanted for a few years. The price has definitely held me back from buying it as I can’t see myself feeling comfortable wearing it out very often, and I just can’t justify spending that much for a bag I use a few times a year.

Wow. Triple in 10 years?

It's just a bag. Wear it!

Guilt and shame about working in a legal position for years where, instead of using my law degree (was supposed to do legal work per the job posting), I served as a personal assistant to my boss/did nothing for maybe half the time. I feel like I was paid for work I didn't do. I've since left that job but the guilt and shame remains. I feel that I lack the character of a lawyer and that I am unworthy of the profession. I don't know how to make up for the lost years or how to forgive myself.

Interested in everyone’s opinions on replica luxury. I ask because, as noted in the previous thread re: Chanel’s price increases, the quality of authentic luxury bags is going way down while the price increases consistently. Specifically Chanel and LV. I’m fascinated in the online rep community and it looks like rep quality has increased exponentially (with genuine materials and 1:1 markings, stitching, hardware, etc). What’s your argument for or against replicas?
