🤓Let’s start with a lil history lesson, shall we? Telfar is a Brooklyn-based genderless brand that was founded in 2005 with a simple mission: to break down the price barrier often associated with luxury items so that everyone could experience quality craftsmanship and designer quality products. Regardless of your budget, Telfar bags as well as several of the brand’s other apparel and accessory items are affordable enough for anyone to cop, especially our Black Kings and Queens, and we love to see it.🙌🏾 Telfar’s founder and lead designer, Telfar Clemens, is one of the fashion world’s rising stars and saviors, and the brand’s coveted handbags speak to his power and influence. With that lil background out of the way, let’s get into these Telfar shopping tips, sis!
TIP #1: Sign up for Telfar emails.
⚠️Imma let you know RN, at this point, if you don’t sign up for the Telfar email marketing, you better be prepared to take hella Ls. . . consistently.🤷🏾♀️ Telfar’s email blasts happen about 2-3 times weekly and they always include key information about the time and date of upcoming drops. To keep things even simpler for you, every drop alert email can be easily added to your phone’s calendar app, so your reminder is in place and you can set aside your coins. Sign up for Telfar mailing list here.
TIP #2: Plan a Telfar shopping wish list.
👀Telfar likes to keep things under wraps, which is one of the reasons why drop announcements usually stir up so much hype. Because the brand has had a problem with bots and scammers buying out the inventory in the past, drops are pretty random when it comes to what color and size will be available for shoppers. Drop alerts are done usually 1-2 days in advance of the big moment, so keeping a running list of the colorways and sizes you prefer is helpful when planning your purchases.🗒 The wish list is also crucial for setting up restock alerts. See a bag that you like, but it’s sold out? No worries, just sign up for restock alert emails on the item’s product page and you’re all set to be the first to know when it’s back on and poppin’! 😉
TIP #3: Set an alarm on drop days.
You’ve heard the old saying “the early bird gets the worm,” right?🐛 Well, in this case, the early bird gets the bag. And I mean that figuratively and literally! Setting your alarm for Telfar drop days is an easy way to make sure you’re prepped and ready to add your favorite Telfar purse to cart. Typically, new Telfar drops happen at 9 a.m. EST, which means for a lot of us, we getting up early early. ⏰Set your alarm for 5 minutes before the drop happens so that you’re already on the website and ready to snatch up a shopping bag before they’re gone in 10 minutes (no, seriously. that’s how quickly they sell out.).
🔑Now that you’ve got the keys to success, I hope all of your Telfar dreams come true in the very near future. ✨👜✨Thanks for switching things up with me on the blog today.
