Cartier Trinity Earrings for sleep

Hi lovelies,

I’ve thinking of getting the Cartier Trinity earrings (probably in the small size) as my everyday earring to wear 24/7.

However, as it’s not a huggie, I’m worried about getting poked by the stem backing while I sleep.

Does anybody have any suggestions for how to make it more comfortable to sleep with? I was thinking of keeping the backing at the end of the stem every time I go to bed - is that plausible?

Any advice would be most appreciated.

Where can you find rings with extremely round edges?

I could not find any rings where the edges were extremely round. The edges should be cylinders. The material of the ring should be shiny and slippery. The ring should be wide (between 7 and 10 mm). The ring should have several half cylinders attached to the flat side of the ring. The inside is flat, the outside has several half cylinders, and the edges are cylinders that are extremely round. Does anyone know where you can find these types of rings?

What are some fancy hair accessories FOR HER?

Mini Anjou Question

Looking for advice, does the mini Anjou fit easily over the shoulder? Also, does it look ok over the shoulder being how small it is?
I’m looking for a bag that would go well over my shoulder or crook of arm. I need a new carefree tote to replace my medium Longchamp le pliage. I don’t like totes as big as the Neverfull MM.
The mini Anjou looks perfect in pictures but I worry that it may be too small also and uncomfortable over the shoulder.

Help me find a similar daily bag

Hello bag aficionados!

I need some help to replace my beloved daily bag, which in my opinion was perfect for my lifestyle (dog-walking, errands in the city, easy access, traveling).

It was the coccinelle chara bag.

It really took a beating - the clasp in the front is loose now. I loved the simplicity of the design and how practical it was with hand and shoulder strap.

The LV Capucines looks great as a "better" replacement but I dislike Louis Vuitton..

I am open for the material. I would just like similar functionality and size.


Thank you for your help!

Price mistake on Ava?

I have been interested in the Ava bag for over a year. Mainly the canvas one (undecided on the color). That one retails for € 1350,- ($ 1700)

I was looking on the 24S.com website and saw they have the tan leather Ava with the gold chain for only € 950,- ($ 1225,-).

Does this seem like a mistake to you? All the other leather Ava’s retail for about € 1800,-, but they have a strap and not the chain. Or are they just discontinuing this one and therefore decreased the price?

What should I do? I already have the mulberry lily in oxblood which I could wear with similar colours. It feels much more fancy than the canvas one, and I dont really know if thats the vibe i’m after. But it feels like such a good price! Am I being blinded by the price and should i go with the canvas one? Or is this one much more value for money since its leather and should I go for this one?

Opinions on the puffiness of a Caviar Jumbo

Hi everyone, I was looking at purchasing this Chanel jumbo, in pristine as new condition. However it seems like the quilts aren’t as puffy. I’m not sure if this is due to the caviar leather used in that season (series 18) or if it’s defective. Looks like it’s more of a rigid matte caviar leather. Could I please get some opinions? Is this normal? My other M/L CF in my collection is much puffier/shinier, but does have a softer caviar feel to it.

Should I go ahead and purchase this or continue searching. Seems like the stiffness of the leather is helping keep the bag in good shape though.

*please excuse the black lines I had to cross out a name.

Thank you

New rose gold frivole pendant in small size

Hi! Has anyone gotten this necklace?

I have the mini in yellow gold and I love it but the size is very dainty and for some outfits I would like to have a bigger size. I’m trying to figure out the size on other people than the models on the site, any mod shots and advice would help a lot!
Thanks 😊

1 motif pendant - White gold guilloche or white gold pave

I wanted to start adding some pieces in WG. So I went to the boutique to try on a few pieces. Sorry I forgot to take pictures. I was able to opt out the MOP but I’m stuck in between WG pave or WG guilloche. My question is, would you guys still get WG pave if you already have a YG pave? I do prefer diamonds as they are more carefree and they sparkles in the way I like, a bit more than how guilloche sparkles. And my YG pendant is my favorite necklace I have been wearing pretty much non stop since I got it. They didn’t have guilloche pendant but I was able to try the 20 motif as a reference. I really like it too. I think look wise I love them both. But longevity wise, I prefer diamonds. But.. if I get diamond, I feel im not gonna feel like I got a “new” necklace since only difference would be the color of gold and there’s not much gold on these pendant. Plus pave is more expensive. Sigh what do I do? I wish I’m in the world where I can just buy both without blink of eye

Diaper bag recommendation

I’m going to be a first time grandma. Looking for recommendations on a backpack or tote that I can also use for a diaper bag. Don’t want anything too large. Love crossbody bags also. I won’t be carrying too many things, but it does need to be large enough for a changing pad some diapers, a few bottles, extra change of clothing, etc..

How to draw a ring that you remember seeing somewhere?

I remember seeing a ring with rounded corners and the colors pale copper and gray combinations in stripes. It had two pale copper and one gray stripes, with the gray stripe between the two pale copper stripes. The outside of the ring had half cylinders with these stripes. The inside was flat and the corners of the ring were round. It was also a wide ring. I do not know if that was the exact design though, so I want to try to draw that ring. However, I am bad at drawing, so do you know how I can draw it with an online tool?

Milestone birthday gift - what would you choose?

A question just for fun: I have a milestone birthday next year, and am already thinking about what kind of thing I might gift to myself 😉. What jewelry item would you buy yourself for a very significant birthday? I already have a collection of basics (diamond studs, eternity band, everyday necklace) that I’m happy with - I’m looking for something more dramatic or fun. But I’d love to hear what you all would choose!

JUC Ring PAIN Question

I really want to buy a JUC ring (not sure which yet) but have seen video reviews that mention that the nail head digs into their finger leaving a red mark and gets caught in their hair. I have also read that you should size up so that the nail head doesn't dig into your finger when your fingers swell up in the heat.

Has anyone here who has a JUC ring had this experience?

Medium Andiamo or Parachute?

Medium Andiamo or parachute?

  • Medium Andiamo

    Votes: 22 75.9%
  • Parachute

    Votes: 7 24.1%

Hi all - I can’t decide between the medium Andiamo or the large parachute for a roomier tote bag I can use for travel. The parachute seems a bit more user friendly since it doesn’t cinch like the Andiamo does, but I like that the Andiamo has a crossbody option.

What does everyone think? Anyone have both?

Made in Italy

Hi all!! question, has anyone had a bag that was made in Italy where there were no letters in the numbers sequence that would indicate the country the bag was made. (correct wording is failing me right now sorry). I can’t trace the bag back to a style with these numbers. I guess my question is back in the 90’s did Coach use the style in the number sequence or was it after.

Chanel Raises €700 Million From High-Grade Private Debt Market

This is curious given how much cash the business generates. Though they did talk about buying a property in NYC.

Chanel Raises €700 Million From High-Grade Private Debt Market​

  • Luxury fashion house borrows from US private-placement market
  • Deal follows similar transactions for Ferrero, Remy Cointreau
By Silas Brown
(Bloomberg) -- Chanel has raised over €700 million ($758 million) from a privately-placed bond sale, people with knowledge of the matter said.
The London-based luxury fashion house is the latest big European business to raise debt privately, following similar deals for German engineering firm Robert Bosch Gmbh, Italian chocolatier Ferrero and French drinks maker Remy Cointreau.
These so-called US private placements are a form of private debt that allow blue-chip firms to directly tap institutional investors such as insurers. That enables borrowers to bypass volatility in public credit markets.

The move by Chanel comes after it cautioned that conditions in the luxury industry are growing more challenging, following double-digit growth in its sales and profit last year. Chanel Ltd. sales climbed 16% on a comparable basis to $19.7 billion in 2023, while operating profit rose 11% to $6.4 billion, it said in May.
Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and Societe Generale SA arranged the debt for Chanel, said the people, who requested anonymity when discussing private matters. The notes mature in 10 and 12 years.
