I’ve been seeing ads ALL OVER the place. Lyst.com, Poshmark, The RealReal… it’s like the universe is screaming at me to buy a Bvlgari scarf. And honestly? I’m kinda tempted. I mean, “up to 90% off”? Who can resist that kind of temptation? I probably couldn’t.
Okay, so what’s the deal with “overrun stock” anyway? My guess? They made too many. Maybe they guessed wrong on how many purple Diva Glare scarves (Vestiaire Collective, I’m lookin’ at you!) the world needed. Or maybe, just maybe, it’s a clever marketing ploy. Dunno. Don’t really care, tbh. As long as the scarf is actually Bvlgari and not, like, a knock-off from a street vendor, I’m good.
And speaking of Bvlgari scarves, they’re not all created equal. You got the “Heritage Scarf Silk 246136” situation with the Bvlgari Bvlgari metal pendant (fancy!). Then there’s the ones you might find on eBay… hopefully, you’re getting the real deal there, with the “Sheer Jacquard All Over Pattern Silk Blend Hemp Linen Logo E.” (That description is a mouthful, isn’t it?).
Honestly, the “how to wear scarves” thing on eBay threw me off a bit. Like, duh, you wear it around your neck? Or your head? Or tie it to your purse? Whatever floats your boat, man. Nobody needs a manual for that. Although, I guess some people do…
I was looking at some on RealReal and the prices were actually pretty decent. So, yeah, I’m thinking about it. Especially if I can find one that’s *actually* 90% off. My credit card might be a little mad at me, but hey, you only live once, right? Unless you’re reincarnated, but that’s a whole other topic.
Plus, free shipping and returns (Lyst.com!) are a definite bonus. You gotta love a company that understands commitment issues.
