Basically, from what I’ve gathered cruising around the internet (because who *actually* goes to a CELINE store unless they’re, like, *actually* rich?), these scarves are kinda a big deal. We’re talking serious statement pieces. Think “I casually draped this ridiculously expensive piece of silk around my neck” vibes.
eBay, bless its chaotic heart, seems to be a good place to snag a Celine scarf if you’re aiming for “affordable” (quotes heavily implied there, folks. Designer ain’t cheap, even secondhand). They’ve got a bunch, apparently. But, like, *buyer beware*, right? Make sure you’re not getting bamboozled with a fake.
Then there’s the whole “handmade/unique” thing on NET. I dunno, I always get a little sus about that kinda stuff. Is it *really* handmade? Or is it just… mass-produced with a “handmade” sticker slapped on? The world may never know! (Unless you’re willing to spend hours researching, which… nah, I got Netflix to binge).
SSENSE seems to be a place to snag the newest collections, the SS25 ones, so if you wanna be on the cutting edge, look there.
Now, The RealReal… that’s where things get interesting. “Up to 90% off!” They scream. Okay, cool, sounds tempting. But then you read the fine print: “Items show minor signs of wear.” Which, let’s be real, probably means “this scarf has seen some *things*.” Is saving a grand worth rocking a scarf that might have a mysterious stain? Debatable. It really depends on how much you want that designer name, honestly.
And the Triomphe silk twill? Oh man, that sounds fancy. And probably costs more than my rent. I’m pretty sure I saw that on SSENSE too so be sure to check that out.
