What We Bought: Marc Jacobs Pilgrim Loafers, Balenciaga Ankle Boots, and More (Forum Shopaholics)


We love our fast fashion shops like ASOS and Zara over here at the Fashion Spot (and forum members picked up some covetable items from there as usual), but big-ticket premium designer pieces are the things that really set our hearts aflutter. Luckily, there were some such purchases this past week that we can live vicariously through thanks to a few lucky ladies with great taste.

Rochasfille wrote, “Finally found my perfect winter coat from Marni. It’s puffy AND plaid AND has fur trim, i.e. ticks all the boxes.” She also bought a pair of Marc Jacobs pilgrim loafers. “Had to splurge on the Marc Jacobs pilgrim flats because they are just SO sparkly and purple. Hated the runway version but LOVE these,” she gushed.

Hautechild hit up the Alexander Wang sample sale and was lucky enough to come away with a burgundy Donna bag.

Mistress_f called her purchase of a Silent Damir Doma coat her “wishful thinking act of the day, hoping that one winter and cold will come,” so that she can get some wear out of it.

Twill Bill also got in on the Chelsea boots trend with a pair from Church’s that has some brogue detailing.
