Did anyone pick up their free nordy club gift? I went yesterday and was shocked by how nice the gift was, parfums de marly, kilani, la prairie.

Hi everyone, I’m in a dilemma and need your help. I really don’t use my vca 5 motif YG guilloche bracelet . I have the 5 motif onyx bracelet as well and use that often but somehow don't reach for the guilloche. I was thinking of selling it and putting the money towards the small JUC necklace ( the solid choker like style ) which I’m in love with 😍. It does cost 13k ! Given the current resale market, what’re your thoughts ?

Looking for something more practical than the classic medium flap and also a tote.

The reason I am asking is because for the past 2 quota bags I have picked up they have not been things I have requested. For example last year I asked for a B25 or B30 in red or green. My SA replied saying she had something for me and to come in. When I went to the appointment I was so excited and the bag she pulled out was beige. I was shocked.

I was wondering if this is something that happens often. Or do most people know exactly what bag they are walking in to pick up.

Thank you.

I own many designer purses and always buy them directly from the designers store or from their website. A few times I have also bought from FWRD and Farfetch. I have never bought from ebay until now. There was a purse I really wanted and never ended up buying it when it was available from Saint Laurent. So I searched online to see where I could find it available. The only website I found that had a few for sale was ebay. I wanted one that was pretty much brand new and there was a listing that had the purse still with tags on and plastic still on the side hardware. The seller has 168 feedbacks and all positive. 168 isnt alot but better then 10. Everything looks legit in listing but then again they are just pictures and could have been taken from anywhere. You just never know if thats what they are actually sending you. Before I bought the item I messaged the seller and asked if its authentic as it doesnt say that anywhere in the listing. Then I asked if ebay authenticates it first before the purse is shipped out to me and the seller replied and said it was authentic and that ebay will authenticate it. Based on that I offered $300 less than what they were asking and they countered for $95 more and I accepted. Well I see its been shipped but its going strait to me and not to ebay first. I contacted ebay and they said that the seller didnt have it listed under the authentication program and that ebay isnt going to authenticate it. WeLl thats not good. Now Im worried. Why would the seller tell me its going to be authenticated by ebay and when it isnt? I messaged the seller and am waiting to hear back. Its alot of money to spend and I dont want to get ripped off. Hopefully thats not the case. What do you guys think? Has anyone bought a designer purse off ebay before?

Dear all, I saw a beautiful bag from around 2009 stam bag Robert Leslie. Does somebody know who or what is the Robert Leslie stam Marc Jacobs? It’s colorful and I saw this in very variations. However, I couldn’t figure out the “Robert Leslie” 😀. Do you have an idea? Thanks so much.

I tried on the rockstud heels today and so badly wanted them to feel comfortable but my foot was wobbling. Then, I tried on the shorter VLOGO Signature Toe Pointed Pump in the smaller height.

Does anyone have this same issue with Valentino pumps that your foot wobbles? I have Sam Edelman pumps that are 4 inches and do not have this issue.

I was looking at the Soleste Diamond Pendant in platinum. It’s small but classy and matches my diamond hoops.

Was also considering the Cartier DAmour too.

Thoughts? Sorry for dorky pics the SA took them.

Hi Hardwear owners! I was cleaning my silver microlink bracelet today and noticed what looks like significant wear on the links. Most of the tops of the links look about half as thick the rest of the link, and the clasp looks like it's getting close to worn through! Is this just wear and tear? I have been wearing it 24/7 for over three years now. I understand silver is not the strongest metal but am sad if I'll only get a bit longer before it breaks.

How are your bracelet links wearing? I was considering getting the small size and/or perhaps gold...do you think the 18K will wear longer than silver? Would love to see pics from anyone else who wears their Hardwear a lot.

After several years of an Apple Watch, I'm back to wearing my Tank Française (medium, stainless) - and I think it would look nice stacked with a bracelet. I don't mind mixing metals. (I wear a Trinity ring on the same hand.) Also doesn't have to be by Cartier. (I wear a Love in YG on the other wrist and don't want to switch for assorted reasons.) Any suggestions? Thanks!

Sorry in advance if this is too minor a topic for its own thread, but I am going in circles about this and hubby is of no help. I recently tried on the juste un clou earrings in WG pave and fell in love. However, I just bought the small panthere watch and pearl c de cartier earrings (they are off for post adjustment and then I shall share mods!), so I feel it more responsible to wait a little.

However, the itch won't go away and so I ordered the plain RG JUC earrings (arriving Tuesday with luck). BUT my local jeweller just got in a C de cartier diamond necklace with a 0.51ct stone, G, VVS2 at a good price and here is my dilemma...

Get the necklace instead (which has also been on my list) and wait a bit and go for the pave juste un clou earrings later down the line or keep the focus on the plain RG JUC earrings?? I know this is 1st world problems, and so I humbly seek your thoughts and opinions

Attached is mod shot of me trying on the JUC WG pave. I stupidly didn't try on the RG plain at the time as I was looking at the pearl c de cartier and multiple other things and the SA brought the JUC WG pave on a whim.. I am wondering if the RG might "drown" a little in my red hair?

Hello!

I popped into Chanel and picked up this gorgeous sequin bag. It sparkles in the light and is so glamorous as an evening bag. However, I am unsure if it is worth $8k. I’d love some opinions whether I should keep it as a collectors piece or take it back. The detailing is beautiful but I’m on the fence if it will be tacky/trendy in a few years. The lettering is very subtle in the light and gives the bag a lot of texture. Anyone here any a sequin bag that they still love without regrets? Thank you!!

Hello Cartier lovers,

I met my awesome SA today and I am impressed by the new hinged locking mechanism of the regular sized love bracelet! It has the same locking mechanism like the small love bracelet but enhanced/upgraded where you are only able to turn the screw halfway clockwise. There is no way to turn it 360 degrees in either direction. It comes in WG and YG with or without diamonds. So i am totally interested as I am now able to take it on and off! Sorry i did not inquire about RG. I do have pictures but my SA asked me to not post it till the release date on October 1st! I am soooo excited about the new hinged love bracelet! Plz do not ask me for photos in my DM! I will ignore the request as I value my relationship with my SA and he is aware of the purseforum. Thank you.

Featuring 18 carats, the 1969 Nano Or bag is estimated at 250,000 euros, surpassing the value of the legendary Hermès Birkin and Chanel Classic Flap

Those tiffany pouches aren’t that great. I really don’t like having my necklaces rubbing up against itself.

For those of you that travel with your jewelry — particularly larger necklaces like the hardwear pieces — did you find something you really like?

I also regularly wear a metro bracelet and rings, but I don’t generally take those off, so I am less concerned about a travel option for those.

Does anyone frequently mix RG and WG? I haven’t seen a whole lot irl, but have been wanting to achieve the most neutral metal combo as possible. I feel like this might be close? I’ve been trying to sus out my personal coloring/undertones and I think I find it difficult to lean all the way into YG or WG when wearing many pieces all at once (like in a stacking style). I was initially inspired by the two tone Tiffany lock bracelet in RG and WG, even though I might not go for that specific piece. If you have a stack of RG and WG bracelets, rings, etc. please share pics!!

Has anybody purchased 2 of the single Love studs and worn them as a set before? It would much appreciated if you can please share any pros and cons that you have experienced with doing this.

"Hermès executive chairman Axel Dumas is considering a push into haute couture as the Parisian house emerges largely unscathed from a luxury slowdown that has exposed the widening gap between the strongest and weakest brands.

The 54-year-old Frenchman said Hermès, known for its colourful silk carrés scarfs and coveted Birkin handbags, would resist emulating peers that have made forays into eyeware, travel or hospitality, because it would require ceding operational control along the way. But he said: “We could do couture — we don’t rule it out.”Haute couture is the most exclusive service offered by a select number of luxury houses, such as Chanel and Christian Dior, where garments are custom made.

Gowns can run into the five and sometimes six figure price ranges. While Hermès has a fast-growing ready-to-wear fashion division designed by Nadège Vanhee and offers custom leather goods to select customers, it has yet to venture into couture."

What do you think about this?

please help me decide between the Cartier Love studs or the Hermes Farandole studs

Hello!

I was wondering how do I take a picture of the microchip inside the bag? Someone said a macrolens attached to the phone, but what kind is best because I want it to be as easy as possible. I was trying to get my bag authenticated, but no one will do it until I get the most clearest pic of that metal plate inside and I'm tearing up the bag trying to get it!

Any of you ever had any luck requesting a special order from Bulgari? I was looking at the double Serpenti viper ring but would love it in yellow gold rather than rose. Thanks!

Edit: haha, just found it on the US site. Question still stands though, cos ideally I’d like it with emeralds rather than diamonds. I know, really pushing my luck now. 😆

Can we talk about how stunning the collection was this year! Finally, seeing a return to what Bottega Veneta used to be all about for me.


The tailoring was beautiful, just the right amount of whimsical.

It’s s long time ago I have been excited about a BV show. Only 2 looks I didn’t care for and the some of the men’s tailoring was too exaggerated and oversized for a shorty like me, but overall bravo to MB.
