If you've followed my blog for a little while now, you're probably well aware that I love finding great deals -- designer investment pieces at a fraction of their original price tag are my jam in life and I love it when my friends remark, "You always have the best sales luck at {insert name of department store here}. Of course, as any good deal hunter knows, there are the rare few that get away. High up on my regret list? A vintage black caviar leather 2.55 Chanel bag that I had spied last year at a consignment shop here in San Francisco. My reasons for walking away are totally lost on me now -- I likely wanted to "think" about it and understandably that beauty was scooped up soon after. I never even stood a chance! 

Luckily, internet karma has a funny way of working itself out and via Portero's new Find it for Me service, I'm now tracking down my elusive big girl dream bag. I simply provided a few details (style, color, material, etc.) to their team of stylists and they started their detective work! I'm beyond excited to see what they've dug up -- so stay tuned. In the meantime, I'm curious -- have any of you guys used their Find it for Me service? Would love to see what you scored!

  8. Have you checked out Chanel bags, and more on www.lxrco.com? I haven't made any purchases through them, (i'm just a "window shopper" for now, until I save up a little more haha) but I know it's a favorite shopping destination for tons of other fashion bloggers!!! Some really great deals on that site... maybe you'll find your dream 2.55 ;) Love your boots!!

  16. I know what you mean about passing up a good deal and regretting it later. It's the worst. You look stunning by the way. Your boots are my favorite item.
