What inspired It’s a Luv Story?
I have always had a love for unique luxury pieces, but what truly inspired It’s a Luv Story, was the famous, mini satin pearl embellished flap bag! I had randomly come across this bag while shopping and decided it would be a great first piece to publicly post & sell. I immediately had a pour-in of requests. The first woman who messaged me was extremely emotional about finding this bag online. She anxiously asked me to wait while she runs to the bank to transfer the funds for it. I understand being excited about a bag, but something special was happening here. I told her she was the first one to message me and so the bag was all hers, but something told me to inquire further. What was so special about this bag? Within minutes of receiving her payment (literally minutes) she shared with me that 10 years ago, she wore this special bag on her wedding day. Unfortunately, soon after her special day, her home was robbed and her mini satin pearl Chanel handbag was stolen. For the next several years she scoured the internet looking for a replacement. Just a couple of days before renewing her wedding vows and photos, we were able to unite this woman with an object of much sentimental value! I knew from that moment, how special it would be to help people find the items of their dreams, and I haven’t stopped since!
