Yeah fair enough. I wouldn't want it around the place for a full year. But why don't they just sell taster boxes, why call them advent calenders and only have them at a particular time of year? Same with the beauty ones. There are all sorts of ways to buy sets and minis. The answer to this is to promote over consumption of things you don't need. It's a gimmick. Would you buy it if it wasn't wrapped up in a bow for Christmas?

This is why I only ever want a chocolate or food advent calendar (not an alcoholic one). I understand if you're 100% devoted to a certain brand, you use their stuff all the time and will use everything in the calendar you can make a decent saving with *some* of the advent calendars. But I don't think anyone would really use or want every item they get.
 
Those Manolos look quite tacky in black leather IMO: I think in a jewel-toned satin they're iconic. In black leather and on Fleur's trotters I suspect they'll look like a knockoff tbh.
Don't even get me started on the knackered looking Golden Goose yokes with the burnt soles and meaningful quote. Tacktastic.
 
Jesus that’s very insulting to everyone who *gasp* decorated their house six years ago and hasn’t the funds to redo it. What’s wrong with it? She hardly ever stays there anyway, what does it matter if its style is too “2015”, whatever that means. Must be nice to have the money to piss away so casually

Its absolutely nauseating given what is going on in the world. Yes, we’re aware you’re rich, but stop being so f-ing entitled.
 
It’s vulgar. “Ugh guys my central London apartment that I don’t even live in is like soooo 2015, update needed asap so it’ll still live in sterile idleness with no one in it but at least it’ll be trendy right?”. What a complaint to have eh? Like Chandler in Friends “oh no my diamond shoes are too tight and my wallet is too small for my fifties!”
