I finally got myself the YSL Kate! I’ve been eyeing it forever and it’s my first luxury bag purchase. PSA - buying it at the Paris airport was wayyyy cheaper and more convenient than anything in the US.

Amazing!!!

Congratulations on the new addition and hope you had a wonderful trip! Out of curiosity, how much were you able to save (as a percentage) by purchasing at the airport? I’m also looking into buying my first luxury bag :)

It was $2100 without tax in the US ( Nordstrom) and I paid £1320 all included at the cdg YSL showroom.

Hi Sharks 🦈,

Need some suggestions: My current company is on a layoff spree and 2 rounds are already done and I can foresee another round coming very soon.

While I am trying to switch to other companies, I’m not able to reveal the real reason from my side for the job change, as if I say, it’s because of layoff fears than it’ll reduce my negotiation power.

What other reasons can I give as I’ve just completed 9 months here and it’s too soon for any other company to take me in.
