Dear Gwen, can we talk L.A.M.B.? - What would you say...

christinag · Jun 24th, 2008, 07:36 PM

Sometimes I just feel like I need to call Gwen up and tell her how I really feel about my L.A.M.B. bags or L.A.M.B. in general

. Or maybe just ask her some questions, give her some tips

Yeah, I know, she'd SO be taking that call!

Anyone else feel like that? What would you say to the the fabulous Ms. Stefani if you could call or text her?

Dear Gwen - I promise I won't make any spongebob jokes.

Here's my question/comment for the day..
It sometimes bothers me that L.A.M.B. bags are made in China.
I'm guessing it's a price-point thing - but I'm often wishing they weren't made there, especially when some Made in Italy bag-lady starts grilling me about where my bag was made.

Mind you - it's not bothering me enough to stop buying the bags - god forbid! I love 'em!! But I wonder if this topic is on the L.A.M.B. radar at all?

Thanks - your pal, C

I love this thread! LOL I swear that this morning, I was thinking about writing to Gwen and those 'schifter partners' or whoever makes the bags and asking for this......

Dear Gwen,

I want the exact style of the Edinburgh McGregor Doctor Bag BUT done in the classic Saddle print with pleating at the top!!

Sincerely,

MissN! LOL

indi3r4 · Jun 24th, 2008, 09:06 PM

nice! i'll be writing a letter often!

Dear Gwen,
Can you produce more alston? And also, you might want to consider reproduce the shadow print since that print is pretty hard to find nowadays and many of us lambies, including me, still want it!
Best Regards,
Indi.

Dear Gwen,

May you please help me find the the Black&White Checkerboard Hopewell? I haven't seen it anywhere and it's driving me insane! (or else I will stalk you)

Yours truly,

GhstDreamer

Dear Gwen,

Please start stocking in Australia. Buying online is annoying and expensive. Also, can you please produce more animal print bags (such as cheetah and leopard) because I'm obsessed!!

Regards, Robotindisguise

Dear Gwen,

I like shoulder bags. I'd really like more L.A.M.B. shoulder bags. We don't all have bodyguards to carry our bags for us. Can you please create the perfect L.A.M.B. shoulder bag so I don't even need to look at other designers?

Thank you,

Rae

lmkhlh2006 · Jun 24th, 2008, 10:29 PM

Dear Gwen,

Could you guys please release the bags and matching accessories at the same time? I'm sick of seeing a really cute key pouch and then not being able to find the bag until 3 months later... Also I would be more than willing to try out any prototypes that you guys have, bags, shoes, clothes and pretty much anything else (except perfume because I'm allergic)...my address is...

Thanks,
Lindsay

p.s. here are some cyber flowers to bribe you

No sh*t huh!!!!!

knasarae · Jun 24th, 2008, 11:44 PM

Dear Gwen,

Please make more shoulder bags. Also please make every print available in every bag style. However, if it is not cost efficient to do this, please consult with me before deciding which ones go into production.

Thank you kindly,
Knasarae

Dear Gwen - ^^^^ what they all said!

You know - another thing that I was thinking about... you probably don't need me to tell you this, but girlfriend, L.A.M.B. retail stores, ala Armani, Prada, Coach would be HUGE.

Your brand, image and identity is so strong, visual & hot - the stores would be amazing - and, hello - also the perfect place to carry/showcase your full line, and to show off every new item/style/pattern each season. How great would it be to show off everything properly, and have everything styled/displayed the way you want, rather than having to depend upon the questionable whims of a mixed bag of buyers from stodgy department stores.

The concept gives me chills - I can picture L.A.M.B. stores rocking all of the hottest shopping destinations around the globe.

I know, I know... staffing is always an issue with retail, and if you get the wrong people handling it, it could go in a direction that you don't want. I just want you to know that I'd be glad to pitch in and work at slave wages for you any time in exchange for a decent discount, I've got tons of useful retail and retail related management and marketing experience (not including being a world class shopper :).

Anyway, just a thought, I think L.A.M.B. flagship stores would be so amazing & I do hope you're planning to launch some.. unless you have already.. have you??? I've never seen any myself except that online 'official L.A.M.B. store' - which frankly looks a bit 'officially D.O.A.' to me every time I've visited it.. but THAT is a topic for another email!

Dear Ms. Stefani:

I love your L.A.M.B. handbags and accessories line. However, in light of both the increasing price point and success of the aforementioned, I would like to see the following changes instituted: (1) future handbags and accessories covered by a manufacturer's warranty against defects in workmanship and (2) a Repair Center. If these changes are not feasible, can you please create touch up kits to repair color rub off on Lux Signature items?

In addition, please produce classic Lux Signature (1) prints (e.g., Saddle, Rasta and Silver) and (2) handbag shapes (e.g., Mandeville, Alston, Montego and Oxford) every season. I assure you that they will continue to sell. Thank you in advance for your prompt attention to this urgent matter.

Regards,
WinterStorm

Dear Gwen,

Since you have already received a boatload of mail from my fellow lambies about bags, i would like to take my time to write to you about your fabulous clothing line.
Clearly, i love it cause its the shit. However, unfortunately i have been having trouble with your clothes fitting me correctly. Contrary to misguided popular belief, not all girls on the smaller side lack a rack! I've had to return the dress and shirt that I have purchased for this very reason, which was a heartbreaking experience to say the least.

Please take this into consideration when designing and producing clothes in the future.
Sincerely,
agreenst

ps. Please please please bring back a saddle exeter! I would love you forever, more than i do even now.

theglamorous · Jun 25th, 2008, 06:45 PM

Oh I love Lamb.

christinag · Jun 25th, 2008, 06:52 PM

Pssttt... hey Gwen,

Have you noticed our 'cheaters' buying up MJ & RM? Might be a good idea to check out that thread and see why lambsters are into those bags, just a thought!

Myself - I look at Marc & 'Becca when I'm thinking: shoulder bag, less structure, more leather, more lusciousness, and vivid colors.

And another confession, for your consideration: I still can't get rid of my ongoing lust for a patent Burberry Beaton shopper.
Maybe it's my inner chav, I don't know. I wish L.A.M.B. offered something shoulder baggy and patenty and shopper-ish but so cool that it would erase that darn Beaton from my brain.

Thanks for listening!
