    We all have different needs and wants ; have different standards xx

    I am not a fashion hound , I don’t do fads : I buy Quality - timeless , classic , understated , elegant .

    I don’t care about brand names , hate ‘bling’ :: I am after Quality / if it Happens to be a high brand ,

    so be it - without the flashiness . I’ve always been like that .

    I’m looking for practicality , longevity , aesthetics .. look for good material and solid craftsmanship

    : and I never did say how much I paid - only how much I put down in cash


    Shopping at Penneys : the latest ‘greatest’ 2 minute fashion poorly fashioned and poor quality :

    that shopper be lucky if that thing will last out one season . Cheap - in quality and in looks .

    Each to their own as I said x


    / I haste to add : no disrespect meant to Penneys’ shoppers !! I buy my socks there ! X

    Shoppers will have to scan their payment card at the entrance to the store in order to gain entry.

    Then with a combination of camera technology and weight-sensor-enabled shelving,

    AI will detect what customers are buying and then charge the card they used to scan into the shop.

    People won't question the price they pay for convenience until it's to late
    I think it was Amazon ( or Whole Foods ? ) that opened a store like that in Cali some time back .

    : I don’t remember in detail but : you just walked in , did your shopping and walked out .

    No scanning , no stops , no checks : just walk in - shop - walk out .

    Wonder whatever happened to That outfit : in general , and with the current crime wave .

    Be worth look it up x

    Buy cheap, buy often as the saying goes, quality is worth it, have had the same watch for 25 years, hasn’t lost a second, wasn’t cheap but nothing good is.

    I'd be frugal enough with money, my biggest luxury is my car . . . I do love Chanel looking outfits and Pearl's I think it's such a classy brand, I buy my Chanel stuff online . . . But not from a Chanel website

    Once ever I treated myself to a pair of Chanel sunglasses, got out to the car, covered them in holy water and prayed to George Michael "may I never sit on them/loose them/break them" and to be honest I dont even know if it was worth it coz they never leave my car I'm too afraid I'll loose them

    She could afford it and, as she said, no matter what happens to your body size as you age / have kids etc, the handbag will always fit!
    That’s actually quite modest ( just as my own purchase was ) ::

    : The shop I was in had a Birkin Bag for 37,000 € .

    ^^^ they’re really more of a Collectors’ buy ; very few would actually Use it . / investment

    I’m BT once I was in for a drool over the Chanel pearls and got chatting to the assistant. I asked her what the most expensive Chanel item they had in stock was. She brought me over to the counter, put on a display of putting on these silk gloves, and from under the counter took out a Chanel bag. It was a small clutch bag which cost THIRTY THOUSAND EURO, made of alligator skin apparently, and she explained to me these type of Chanel bags go UP in value as only a certain few will be produced.

    Hand on heart I can say if I won the euro millions I still wouldn’t spend money like that on a bag, maybe it’s the culchie in me, I’d be more into property or land lol

    I can’t simply buy clothes, I have to flirt with them first, look at them half a dozen times to convince myself, yeah,200 seems reasonable for a shirt…no it’s not but sure I buy it anyway 🙄

    Bought a pair of aviators a few years back then proceeded to go blind, need prescription everything now, the sunglasses were taken by one of the kids 🙄

    Teeth n all!! 🐊

    Rich people really don't know the true value of money!!

    I could blow cash without a problem but I've absolutely no fashion sense,

    I don't like labels think they're a rip off for those who want to show status
    but I do like to dress smart

    I don't wear jewelry watch etc not into cars either!!

    What the Hell am I spending all my money on 🤔

    Oh yes I love women
