I also fell in love with my other Gucci bag at the same airport...

Next Clearance sell Gucci bags but they are a bit more expensive than that one so OP must have got a bargain

Tiny542 · 17/02/2024 13:23

I love the colour OP. Beautiful!

BakedTattie · 17/02/2024 13:23

I love it! Have a great holiday.

Ot - champagne is obligatory at the airport, everyone knows that?!

Malarandras · 17/02/2024 13:24

I prefer the Dionysus range myself but that bag is pretty too. Though lilac is not one of my favourite colours. Glad you like it though!

Toadstool1985 · 17/02/2024 13:31

Its really horrible and baffling that a stranger being happy provokes such spite in some people

I'm glad it made you happy, op, I actually love it and usually not a lilac fan... Enjoy it and have a lovely flight!

I don't like oysters. Or champagne. Or airports.

I do have some shoes that would look lovely with that bag though!

Congratulations on your purchase OP, I hope it brings you much joy

This reply wins!

OP if I could afford £800 bags I'd post them too

I really don’t understand why chain straps are so popular. Whenever I’ve tried one it’s so uncomfortable that I have to change the strap after about 5 minutes.

If you just wrap an Asda carrier bag round the chain it makes it much more comfortable.

YeahIsaidit · 17/02/2024 13:34

Can I also ask how showing off a photo is "showing how much you love it"? are the champagne and oysters for the bag, cos I have to tell you, I don't think they'll mix well

Cuppachuchu · 17/02/2024 13:35

It's all subjective isn't it.
I treated myself to a new everyday bag recently and felt extravagant spending £89. 😬 😳

LazyGaaGaa · 17/02/2024 13:36

It's really lovely!

Valtine2 · 17/02/2024 13:37

Those being negative it's a summer colour. I think it goes well with "Dubai" in pissy Yorkshire no. I assume OP has other lovely bags so I dont see any wrong in her choice! Enjoy your bag OP

JanewaysBun · 17/02/2024 13:39

I really like lilac and yellow together (i actually made DD some bows in these exact shades about 4 years ago haha,). Does the bag fit much in? I see they do a nice purse in that range but no larger bags.

Oysters do taste exactly like the sea, a bit of tabasco and they go down a treat. If you go to whitstable in kent you can get big chip boxes full for a very reasonable price.

Cornettoninja · 17/02/2024 13:40

I’m not a bag person but it looks perfectly nice and inoffensive.

I’m not sure that you have to buy it an expensive champagne lunch but like I said, I’m not into bags so know very little about their diet.

VoleChomper · 17/02/2024 13:47

Enjoy the bag and enjoy the trip.

I enjoy a sprinkling of conspicuous consumption on MN. They do tend to get a certain MNer, riled up though.

Almost as much as a ‘how old do I look?’ post? ‘YOU ARE VERY HAGGARD AND LOOK LIKE A MUCH OLDER VERSION OF MY 97 YEAR OLD MOTHER. HAVE YOU HAD A VERY HARD LIFE?’.

It's because it's not in Style and Beauty forum, people all post their bags on there and discuss them not in AIBU.

Yes, okay but because it's deemed to be in the "wrong" section people are give licence to lay into Op?

ThisSideOfTheLight · 17/02/2024 13:12

@AstorianPlease You don't actually chew them. They are meant to be swallowed whole.

They are definitely marmite!

And yes, they taste like the sea. Nice with a bit of tobasco.

Edited

No no no. You absolutely chew oysters. Only a barbarian would swallow whole. Or someone who hated oysters

FieldInWhichFucksAreGrownIsBarren · 17/02/2024 13:50

Oysters and champagne, yes.
The bag, sorry but no. If you like it though good for you.

hby9628 · 17/02/2024 13:53

I think it's a lovely bag. Enjoy your hol xx

Prawncow · 17/02/2024 13:57

Don’t squeeze the lemon near the leather!

ShowOfHands · 17/02/2024 13:59

I've got a new bag too if anybody wants to see it?

99victoria · 17/02/2024 14:00

I recently bought a new bag too, when I was in Lisbon - it cost about £25 and it's made of cork! 😂I do love it though 😂

I really like those, particularly the tote bag!

Not really.

laclochette · 17/02/2024 14:02

The bag isn't one I'd pick but that isn't the point is it, despite what others think. You obviously love it and I love that you do. There is a lot to be said for that wonderful glow you get from a treat like this... and I hope you enjoy every minute of it and enjoy wearing it for years to come!
