I've been there! Such a relatable topic. In my case it's usually that waiting either causes the item to sell out forever, OR, when I finally decide to get it, the price has gone up 😭
THIS! This has happened to me enough times and I hate it every time. It's like that weird mental limit you have for what you want to pay for the bag and a few euros over it is too much. Until the price goes up again and then you feel SO bad about not making the purchase when the price was close to what you had decided would be the price you were ready to pay.
Oh Nick, love, don't beat yourself up, as painful it might seem. My philosophy is if it's meant to be it would be! I find these will turn up again and if the desire is still there then you know you're meant to have it. And if it's not....! Today is so gorgeous! I hope you're having a lovely day!! 😊🧡😊
I was lusting after that chalkhill blue one myself but went with the 'safe' willow soft green one because I use it for work. the tote itself is wonderful. but damn I wanted that chalkhill. alas. clearly I'm not as fashion forward as I want to be.
I am back looking at aspinal of london site everyday now because you can buy some real bargains. Its because of you that am looking because i do love the brand and the leather is the real thing ❤
First of all you look amazing in that yellow jacket. I always have regrets on the preloved market . I see it then obsse about and when I go to buy it it's gone
Thank you so much ! Really appreciate that ☺️☺️ and the pre-loved market has so many amazing finds doesn’t it but if you aren’t quick they can vanish very quickly !!

The collection in chakhill blue was actually spring/summer 2021. I was in love but waited for the sales in December/January and went exactly through the same remorse cycle you’re describing. Once I saw they put back on sale this June what I assume was the excess stock the cycle began once again. Yesterday I woke up decided to purchase but the both totes and the shoulder 👜 were either gone from the site had the ‘sold out’ sign and I wanted to eat myself up 😖 I guess the universe heard me so when I longingly logged in 2 hours ago suddenly there was one midi tote available and I snatched it within seconds. Probably there was a return so they restocked it online. I am not saying this to gloat but to encourage you to keep on checking a few times per day while the sales last. Maybe you will get lucky too! 🍀Greetings form the Netherlands!
Thank you so much for sharing and so glad that you managed to secure an bag you’ll love ! So a lovely subscriber gave me the heads up about stock and I may have been able to sneak in an order online 😍
You’re not alone Nick. I look at it for a couple of years then when they announce they’re discontinuing it, I panic buy. I have missed out on things because of this - LV mini pochette in the DA canvas being the latest loss - but hey-ho, something else always comes along to covet. I need to learn to let go a little and have some fun but it’s so hard. I have had the midi London tote on my list for several years but in the smooth tan. It’s a beautiful bag. You never know - the person may return it so keep your eye out!
Thank you so much for watching ! Absolutely we talk ourselves out of things and then make snaps decisions ! Hope you find all of the items that you have been looking for ☺️☺️
I know the feeling I missed out on the large London tote in the olive in the sale because I was thinking about it but I did pick up the purple for £195 and I love it as a work bag
Nick I just hot my Kurt Geiger heart bag. I got the rainbow. The quality of this bag is amazing. Mine has pewter hardware I couldn't love it ant more . Thank you so much💜
I do the same thing… why do we do that? A couple weeks ago I missed out on a vintage Fendi bag that was in excellent condition on sale for $599… I’m still thinking about it!
Hello! Just fyi both aspinal London totes in the purple and turquoise have gold hardware. I bought both bags, got them all the way here to Las Vegas and then had to return them. It cost a fortune to ship them back and it’s been almost 2 weeks since they confirmed receipt of the bags and I still have not been refunded. So… I’ll never buy from them again.
I’m sorry that you had such a bad experience with them and that the two bags didn’t work out for you 😞 also thank you for letting me know re. Gold hardware as that does make a difference !
