So, I’ve been browsing around (procrastinating, really) and I’m seeing Balenciaga jewelry popping up *everywhere*. Like, Saks, Mytheresa, even Woodbury Common Outlets! (Okay, that last one’s kinda surprising, ngl. Outlet Balenciaga? Is that a thing? 🤔). And a buncha it’s leather, or *featuring* leather.
Now, I gotta be honest, when I think Balenciaga, I usually think chunky sneakers and those weirdly cool, oversized coats. Jewelry wasn’t really on my radar. But hey, maybe I’m just behind the times. Plus, that BB logo *is* kinda iconic, right? Seeing it on a bracelet in gold or silver… it’s got a certain “I’m trying, but not *too* hard” vibe.
But premium leather jewelry… that’s where I get a little…confused. Is it like, leather *accents*? Leather *straps* holding the bling? Or just…straight up leather shaped into a bracelet? Because frankly, if it’s just a leather strap, I could probably DIY that. Not saying I *would*, but I *could*. My crafting skills are…questionable, but still.
And okay, let’s be real, Balenciaga is expensive. Like, *really* expensive. I saw something about clutches made from “smooth premium leather” and honestly, my bank account just whimpered a little. So, paying a premium for leather *jewelry* better be worth it. Is it durable? Will it age well? Will it make me look instantly cooler? These are the questions, people! The IMPORTANT questions.
I mean, they’re saying you can find deals on Balenciaga at The Outnet, so maybe that’s the move? Get a discounted designer piece and elevate your style without completely destroying your finances? Affirm Payments, though… that’s a slippery slope. 0-36% APR? Yikes.
