Dreams do come true! ✨ Unboxing my new Saint Laurent bag that’s been on my wishlist forever. I’m over the moon! 💫

Scored this beauty while in Italy and saved some coins. 

Here’s a tip: buying luxury overseas can be more affordable, especially for new or rare items. The VAT refund alone can make a significant difference.  It’s a pretty simple process. When purchasing any luxury items, have your passport or a least a photo of it on hand. You will be given paperwork for the purchase. Hold on to it and once you get to the airport, follow signs for tax refund. I always look for global blue. Hand over your paperwork and select the card you want the refund to go to. If you’re at the counter with a person, they will let you know how much you will be refunded. It Italy, the refund was 13% of the purchase price but that also has a range. Plus, the joy of purchasing a wishlist item in another country adds a special touch to the experience. 👜🇮🇹
