To show you how much I love my new bag??

[chatenoire]

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

I love it in pink.

Enjoy!

I quite like the bag but don’t fancy the oysters; I imagine it’s like eating slugs.
For those people who buy designer bags are they really worth it? Or is it just the fact that most people can’t afford them?
I like a nice soft leather bag but can’t understand how they can be worth thousands.

Don’t worry, OP

Not sure how this is showing how much you love your bag more just the fact you've got it

You're brave posting this on AIBU. S&B would have been a more appreciative audience

It's not grey

OP could have posted this in Style & Beauty, where it would have been seen by mostly fashion lovers, not everyone would have liked it, but it would have had a generally warm reception and support. She choose to sacrifice that by posting in an innapropriate section which give her post wider visibility. Her choice 🤷🏻‍♀️

She also ensured she framed it with bubbles and oysters. She also slipped in that it was an airport purchase, so we all knew she was going away somewhere. She also ensured we knew this is her second gucci airport purchase. The thread is intentionally boastful, and not everyone likes that. Couple that with posting in the most prolific and toxic section of MN and 💥

@5YearsLeft It was a gift from my mum - she's a 77 year old socialist force to be reckoned with!

If that’s what you like then great. I used to like things like that but it’s all ‘stuff’ to me now.

@Moier those shoes are lovely!

Oysters, champagne, and Gucci bag. I reckon you're an Essex girl 😆

Well this is bitchy. How unpleasant and unattractive!

That looks lovely OP

Welcome to AIBU 🤣

all that might be true @SummaLuvin (it is) but the point is that you can post anything wherever you like and people must, if not appreciative of the joy you’ve decided to spread, keep their silence away from sullying your joy with its presence. There’s literally no where else on the internet to do that.

I’ve been on the lookout for a forum populated by people experiencing famine so I can post them a picture of my dinner. I’m sure my happiness will do them good.

I agree with another poster, how exactly are you showing us how much you love your new bag? I don't get it. Do you mean "AIBU to show you my new bag that I love?"

Miaow! So much envy on this thread 🤣

Love the bag, but your insane to eat oysters just before a flight. Food posing on a plane is not fun

There's whole swathes of society that just pass me by.

I can't tell if this post is sincere, ironic, a joke, a troll, a spoof.

I just don't get it

Hey! I’m an Essex girl…. Well I’ve only acquired residency through living here but my dd is born and raised!

It’ll be a bit of a let down if the OP was posting from Stansted and not a more cosmopolitan airport. Like Luton.

Ooh, a nice lunch, a pretty bag and a holiday! Lucky you, op. Enjoy!

Spoken like a true sensible Mumsnetter!

The spelling error here is bloody wonderful

Yabu
tacky and tasteless post

How can anyone say a handbag costing £800 is not expensive. That really isn’t reading the room

Living and enjoying life - good for you, OP! Stroke your lovely new handbag.
I'm flying somewhere on my own next week and already looking forward to the airport time alone 😀
