Alexis bought this Chloe bag in China.
We know luxury goods are notoriously cheaper in China and Hong Kong, though we still haven’t figured out how/ or why.
Really, there’s nothing to figure out when you’re so jealous that chicks shopping in Shanghai can get a cute Dior boot and you have to pay your rent instead.
But the other thing about China is, well, it’s where a lot of fakes get made.
So which assembly line, exactly, did this black tote fall off of?

while it\’s quite true (legit) luxury goods are cheaper in HK, they’re actually quite a bit more expensive in China thanks to an aggressive luxury goods tariff. They balance this out a little by having fistfuls of fake bags on every corner.
