I drunkenly ordered this bag last night and I only just remembered that I did that

I like it, but I don't need it

I'd had three glasses of prosecco and a pink gin.

You didn’t even drink that much! 😂 if you like the bag why not.

Iheartmysmart · 01/01/2021 22:30

Not really comparable to a bag but my downstairs neighbour bought a micro pig whilst drunk during first lockdown. We live in an apartment block and don’t have a garden!

Can’t stand Orla Kiely. And now very dated.

Laptops need proper padded bags or they’re too vulnerable.

Drunk shopping is like giving yourself a surprise present. I like the bag. It’s your Christmas present to yourself.

GypsyLee · 01/01/2021 22:43

Expensive Prosecco and Gin. Grin

Ahh drunk shopping! I had been looking at this beautiful gold necklace with 7 stars for a year. Black Friday. 20% off . 2 large glasses red. Woke up on Saturday night with an e mail saying Thank you for your purchase. Complete shock. I love my wee necklace though - a gift to me self. The post expensive jewellery I own !
I like your bag too - the I have the same Orla Keiley pattern on my wallpaper.!

😂 I did some Christmas shopping when tipsy and it worked out ok (thankfully).

I love drunk shopping. Ordered a coat last night and only afterwards realised it came with two tops I had left in the basket previously. Did not look at the price.

Too hammered to be able to see tiny pictures so will be complete surprise when they turn up.

Hope you like your bag. It's a bargain and you have to find enjoyment where you can these days

Danu2021 · 01/01/2021 23:40

@glas14368. Oh i hope you like the tops !

Love Orla Kiely. Keep it :)

doloresclaiborne · 02/01/2021 00:35

One of my work colleagues orders stuff when she’s drunk and has ended up with some random purchases that she would not ever use. For example curling tongs when she had really, really short hair.

Whatever anyone else thinks about this bag is irrelevant OP. You liked it and you bought it. I hope you enjoy it when it’s delivered.

Ruthietuthie · 02/01/2021 00:38

@Danu2021, just very surprised. I have no idea what I was thinking apart from nostalgia for 1980s childhood in the UK perhaps (you can't get Pot Noodles in the US, where I live now). The good thing was that they tasted exactly as I remembered (which, to be honest, isn't that good...).

On the plus side, it looks strong enough to carry your bottles of Prosecco home from the supermarket Grin

GlamGiraffe · 02/01/2021 01:49

Slghtly like the time no lessthan nine largejobn lewis boxes arrved (it was in the days of free delivery🤣🤣). They were all addressed to me. I had zero recollection if ordering anything. To make matters stranger i drink alcohol about twice a yearand this was not one if those times.
I do sleepwalk A LOT and had apparently been up a lot that week. 😬

@Gotobloodysleep

I love drunk shopping. Always a surprise when you get the email or it turns up. Smile
This made me laugh 😂 Totally love your attitude @Gotobloodysleep you sound great fun !!
StarlightLady · 02/01/2021 02:29

Better than waking up next to someone and wondering what their name is! And you get a new bag as well.

Danu2021 · 02/01/2021 09:22

Wow just looked on Earth square and they do have a very similare style. With two top handles. I prefer the OK one. I was drunk but I did/do like the OK one and had been looking on the website sporadically waiting for it to go on sale. They had a black friday sale and didnt include the backpacks or new bags. I think if you keep going back to check something is still available, it got its claws in to you! OK may not be a cool brand but actually I really like some (not all) of her designs.

Im going to post a picture of it when it arrives!

Yes, I could fit three bottles in I think!

And yes, compared with waking up with a beer -goggle chosen man in the bed, this is a treat. Two dozen chicken and mushroom pot noodles, yes, thank you, I'd take thoes! A bag chosen by drunken me, yes, thank you, but Shock a man I brought home when I was drunk!? You have really made me feel so at peace with my drunken decision to order this bag thank you thank you @StarlightLady

Oh 😱 I'd be very upset if that turned up and I realised I'd spent £100 on it!! Looks like the kind of bag most of my Year 2 girls bring in! Not my taste at all, very 'nylon-esque' 😖

Danu2021 · 02/01/2021 09:56

I don't want to lose my sense of humour and become defensive 😳 but i have some lovely leather bags including a gorgeous loewe, what i need is a hardy spacious backpack.

I did look at fjallraven bags because their backpacks also have two top handles, but i think they're too popular with young people right now. I dont want to look like im chasing the latest brand!

You’re at no risk there...

ADRIENNEthroughbloodshoteyes · 02/01/2021 12:56

I’m getting a broken link on the OK site! I have to see this bag now I’ve read the whole thread! Grin

CrochetToTheMoon · 02/01/2021 13:34

following for the picture because the link no longer works!

Ghostlyglow · 02/01/2021 14:42

Good work Grin👏👏👏I love drunk shopping Wink
