Whatever Happened to Incoco Nail Stickers?

Specifically, the plain old french manicure tips ... it's as though any type of french manicure nail sticker decals just don't exist anymore. I've searched Amazon and grazed the internet for days. Nothing. I am not talking about fake nails ... just the tip stickers. If anyone uses them, let me know, please. I've used my very last set and it's hard to teach an old dog new tricks when it comes to a great home grown french manicure..,,

Blurry blindstamp B25

Hi there! seeking advice please 🫶🏻
A reputable reseller has a b25 in my favourite combo available. I went to see it in person but the blind stamp inside the bag was rather blurry. It looked like someone did it poorly the first time and then re-did it again, creating fatter letters that are less defined. Has anyone ever seen a blind stamp like this?

The sales said it’s probably because the craftsman had to restamp after an unsuccessful first attempt. It makes me uncomfortable but I love the combo so much. What do you think about the authenticity?

Many thanks in advance!

Authenticate Chanel Classic Flap

Hello, I am considering buying a second hand Chanel Classic Flap Medium, gold hardware, vintage. It is ca 1991-1994 but the serial number is rubbed off. Would you dare buy it from a private person?

Is it possible to see from these images that the purse is authentic?

I am not mistrusting this seller by default, but I am just having a bit of second thoughts due to no serial number.

Which Messika Necklace?

Which Messika Necklace?

  • Move Uno Pave

    Votes: 3 30.0%
  • Gold Move (non-pave, 1 diamond)

    Votes: 1 10.0%
  • Baby Move (non-pave, 3 diamonds)

    Votes: 6 60.0%

Hi All! Trying to decide on a Messika necklace for everyday wear on its own and also for occasional layering. I’m debating between the move uno pave and the gold move uno (non-pave). If I go non-pave, I’d also consider the baby move (the one with 3 diamonds).

Do you think the pave is too fancy for everyday/casual wear? For non-pave, does the baby move (3 diamonds) look better than the gold move (1 diamond)?

Does anyone have the Miu Miu Matelasse mini bag (photo attached) or something similar? Wondering how it holds up in the long run

Does anyone own this bag or a bag similar to it with lambskin Napa matelasse stitching? I’m wondering if the stitching “flattens” or deflates over time. It’s a big investment considering I won’t be able to wear it everyday (because of the light color and it being lambskin) so I want to make sure it’ll be worth buying. Also, how delicate is the bag? I treat all my bags well and store them in dust bags when they’re not in use but do you have to baby it when you’re wearing it because of the soft leather and light color?

LOYAL TO DOONEY, BUT TEMPTED...

I love my Dooney bags and am very glad I purchased each and every one. The quality and styles have me hooked for almost 25 years.

Surprisingly, I purchased two L.K. Bennett box clutches this week. I don't know what made me go to the site since I haven't purchased since the British brand was sold.

Anyway, I really didn't need them, but I tend to purchase items where I have gaps in my wardrobe and I spot a good sale. I bought the Dotty suede clutch in the color trench ( $275.00 on sale for $82.00) and the Iside pale blue suede box clutch ($318.00 on sale for $95.00).

They have clothes, shoes, boots and accessories in the up to 70% off sale. I purchased 2 pairs of the suede Floret court heels in nutmeg and a bright pink.

They might have something to go with your Dooney bags. I just thought I would let you all know since we seem to like quality and classic styling (which is why we are Dooney fans). I did try to find shoes that will work with my D&B bags.

Shipping is from London, so it's $25.00 to the U.S., so it is better to buy more than one item. The shipping doesn't sting as much when you buy 3 - 4 items. I think free shipping starts at $350.00. Hello to everyone!

Cartier C de Cartier necklace or Love necklace interlocking rings with diamonds

Which necklace to choose?

  • C de Cartier necklace in YG/RG

  • Love necklace with interlocking rings with pave diamonds


Results are only viewable after voting.

Hello, beautiful ladies and gents!

My niece has graduated from college this year, and I want to treat her to some nice jewellery. I’ve narrowed my choices down to two options:
  • Love necklace in YG with interlocking rings and diamonds (one ring is covered in pave diamonds)
  • C de Cartier necklace in YG/RG (I’m aiming for the .4-.5 carats one)
I believe they are pretty similar price wise (C de Cartier one will probably be a bit more expensive, but that’s ok).

Which option would you prefer and why? I’m honestly stuck. C de Cartier seems to me as a timeless classic necklace, which she will wear for many years to come, but at the same time, interlocking rings are so fun and interesting, with pave diamonds adding a bit of chick to it. My niece is also a very active person, and she tends to wear all her jewellery 24/7. Which option will be the most durable and carefree?
I appreciate your thoughts. IMG_2597.jpegIMG_2598.jpeg

Sweet Alhambra bracelet or sweet butterfly

Hello!! I just had my 30th birthday a couple days ago and I would like to buy myself a piece of jewelry. I’ve decided on either the sweet mop Alhambra or sweet mop butterfly bracelet. I can’t decide, I think the butterfly is very underrated which I like (it doesn’t scream vca) and i already have a sweet carnelian necklace, vintage Alhambra necklace in gold, 5 motif Alhambra bracelet in onyx and regular sized onyx Alhambra earrings.
But the only thing holding me back from getting the butterfly is I feel like it’s too young & possibly too trendy/cute ?
