I guess my server must have been nice to me because when I first logged it I could add anything I wanted to my cart... but within minutes (probably seconds) everything went on hold! It was crazy! I added a bunch of things that I kinda liked to my cart as fast as I could, then decided what I wanted to keep over those 15 minutes.... lol.

I liked the black Chanel wallet but dumped it out of my cart because it really wasn't THAT great of a deal at 30% off. I ended up buying ONE item only. I LOVE Marc Jacobs & thought the black crocodile tote was cute. I really need a nice black bag... so...it was 65% off (which I thought was a pretty good deal) & bought it.

Of course NOW that I already bought it I am thinking that I already regret it! I had been wanting to get a black lady cannage Dior bag which would have been about $400 more than what I bought this one for. I think it was a serious impulse buy! What do you honestly think of it? Please be truthful... don't worry about hurting my feelings.. lol. I might just sell it when I get it & get the Dior one that I really wanted. I HATE when I buy things under pressure. With the clock "ticking" on my cart I made a quick decision that I probably shouldn't have... lol.

Anyway here are the pics of it. Does anyone know the name of this bag? You know what I mean... every style bag has a "name" of some sort :)

Hmmm.. I have no idea either... lol. I really don't remember seeing it anywhere... at least not that I remember. So what is your honest opinion of it?? I'm not sure about it now that I bought it.

i'm not a fan of it to be honest...it's a little dated for my taste.

Well I'm glad someone likes it! Maybe I'll be selling it to you.. haha!!

I called Hautelook to see if there was ANY way possible to cancel the order because I changed my mind. I'm a good customer of theirs & they can see that I've spend over $2000 in sales at their store in last few months (& that's NOT including this purchase). I figured the sale still has 10 hours left & it hasn't shipped yet so maybe they would cancel the order for me. Well, I was actually surprised that they said NO! They said that it's a "one of a kind" & the ONLY one they had so there was no returns on it.

They went on & on about how "unique" it is & that I could probably sell it & make money on it. So if that is true then WHY couldn't they just cancel the order & just put it back up for sale on the site. I'm sure someone would buy it with 10 whole hours left! I'm not very happy about it. Oh well...

I guess that's what happens when I impulse buy.. lol

Aw MustBuyBags - you'll be fine. Ya see...sample sales are tricky like that. I've totally been sucked in by them when I lived in NYC (...Barney's sample sale...). I mean I totally went crazy at the Barney's sale a few years back because it was my first time and women were going CRAZY. So I bought my stuff, went home and was like "wow... this skirt that was on sale from $1000 to $250 is still not really worth $250 to me...I think I just lost my money". I held on to that skirt for years...I might even STILL have it at my mom's house. I never wore it. Hah!

But these online sample sales are worse because you don't even have time to try it on/touch it...it's one of those now or never things.

I'm positive you can sell it on eBay!! Just make sure that HauteLook sends some type of authenticity certificate along with the bag.

Well, I guess I'm glad I'm not the only one who gets suckered into the impulse sales! It's crazy isn't it? Oh Well.. I'm sure I can sell it. I just wonder if I can get what I paid for it.

Who knows, maybe I'll get it & totally fall in love with it! (Just trying to think positive so I don't get too upset).
