Okay, okay, “high precision” might be a bit much. It’s a belt, not a freakin’ rocket ship. But still! These belts…they just *look* expensive. And probably *are* expensive, let’s be real. I was just browsing FARFETCH (don’t judge, okay? Everyone window shops online!) and they have, like, a *gazillion* different CHLOE belts. Chains, leather…the Marcie one with the chain-link? Kind of digging that, NGL.
Then I saw something about free returns via courier collection…which is basically code for “go wild, buy everything, and then send back what you can’t afford…or don’t actually like.” Tempting. Very tempting.
But hold on. Vestiaire Collective? Second-hand CHLOE belts? Now *that’s* talkin’. Okay, so maybe “high precision” goes out the window a little bit with used stuff. But honestly, if it’s in good condition, who cares? Especially if it saves you, like, a whole paycheck. Plus, you’re being sustainable! You’re a good person! You’re saving the planet…one slightly pre-owned CHLOE belt at a time. Boom.
The RealReal also has them, authenticated by “experts” which, I mean, who even are these “experts”? How do you become an expert at authenticating belts? Is there a belt-authenticatin’ school? I need to know. But okay, if they’re legit, up to 90% off sounds pretty sweet. We’re talking serious bargain-hunting here.
Okay, so the point is (and I *do* have a point, even if it’s buried somewhere under all this rambling), CHLOE belts are, like, a thing. A fancy thing. A potentially overpriced thing. But a thing nonetheless. Whether you’re buying new from Mytheresa (hello, worldwide shipping!), or digging through the pre-loved treasures on Vestiaire, or getting your “expertly” authenticated fix from The RealReal…there’s a CHLOE belt out there for you. Just, you know, maybe don’t spend your rent money on it. Unless you *really* like belts. And then, you do you. I’m not judging. Maybe.
