LESSONS LEARNED from buying luxury - Don’t make these mistakes | Lesley Adina

[@traingirl.meghan]

I've learned those smaller purchases really add up! 🙈Thanks for sharing, Lesley!

[@LesleyAdina]

Right? Those type of purchases can easily fall through the cracks when you look at them individually but once you add them up…that can quickly add up to the price of a handbag 🫣

Thank you Hanne💗 Love tags that make me take a step back and reflect on my spending and potential mistakes

Great advice! I totally relate to the SLG/twilly trap. It is also so easy to talk yourself into something that isn’t quite your style when it’s on sale. Sales are only great if it’s something that you really wanted at full price!

[@LesleyAdina]

Absolutely! Whenever I come across a sale or “great deal” in an outlet or online, I try to ask myself if I had bought the item at full price. If the answer is no, I’m usually better off not getting it at the reduced price either. Doesn’t work 100% if the time but I’ve been able to prevent some impulse purchases that way :) Baby steps😁

Sales/“great deals” are definitely a real money killer…

[@LesleyAdina]

They are a big one. And I’m guilty of falling for them again and again😅🫣

[@Scorpio-wk8bd]

A wave of guilt washed over me when you said "impulse purchase" - oh yes, I'm very guilty!! Great advice - I need it! 😬😅

[@LesleyAdina]

Haha, sorry😅 Guilt is generally not the type of feeling I want people to leave from my videos with. But if you needed that little reminder, I’m glad :)
