The age old question: “Is The Row Margaux Bag worth it?”

First off, I’m not going to lie to you. I didn’t care for The Row Margaux Bag at first. I don’t think I was in my “quiet luxury” loving era (I’m still on the fence about the term quiet luxury, tbh LOL but it’s just fun to say) yet, and The Row certainly wasn’t on my radar in terms of price point. Still really isn’t…but bags & shoes are always my exception. So when I started seeing the Margaux all over Instagram and TikTok, I was curious. Very curious. And then I saw it was sold out. Everywhere.

I personally don’t care if everyone has something I have my eye on. I’m very well aware that I don’t have the most unique taste. So I did some research on the bag, and decided I’d love to try and get my hands on it. I’ll be honest, it took months of stalking resale websites, having notifications on, and just constantly checking my email. And one day I got lucky.

As much as I dislike dressing for summer most of the time, there are a couple of pieces that I do get excited about. The Hermes Orans are definitely one of those pieces. I know designer purchases are tough to make, that’s why I wanted to give you this detailed review of the Hermes Oran sandals! Designer shoes, specifically, can be tough to pull the trigger on. Speaking from my own experience, these sandals, the Gucci loafers and mules (this post is one of my top posts of all time), and the Chanel ballet flats are ones that I will ALWAYS recommend if you’re looking to treat yourself. They’re definitely my splurge shoes, and ones I wear ALL. OF. THE. TIME.
