Going on a trip soon to Paris & Copenhagen and plan on doing quite a bit of shopping (especially with the current exchange rate), any tips & advice to get the best deals? Primarily thinking about visiting Hermes, Chanel and Celine.

Currently planning on attempting to get a leather appointment at the Paris Hermes, get VAT returns on everything, pay in local currency, etc. but want to make sure I’m maximizing ways to save money 😇 TYIA!!

I hope my coworkers see that in me, too. That I work hard but advertising is not what fulfills me.

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?
