If you own the Petite Malle Souple, would you get the side trunk (too similar?) or the PM E/W? Or neither. Looking only at classic canvas - I have a leather Loewe that seems very similar to the side trunk. I’m hesitating only in that - the side trunk feels like my Puzzle and PM Souple had a baby and it might be nuts 😂😂

Help Me Choose — Vintage TM Chain Veneta

Hello! While shopping the Fashionphile flagship store (for a totally different bag) I fell in love with this vintage BV with embroidered metal chains. The only drawback was the color, I felt the white too stark and prone to color transfer. I want an everyday bag, so am considering brown or black, both in the small size. All my bags are black, so I’m drawn to that one, but my husband thinks the brown is more casual and could be more of an everyday. In my defense, the black could be everyday too! I think I like them both equally, hence why I need my PF fam to weigh in.

Wearing exotic bag all the time

I absolutely love my exotic bags and wish I could wear them all the time. However, I usually leave them at home if it looks like it might rain. I aspire to be more like the Olsen twins or JLo, who confidently wear their exotic bags regardless of the weather forecast (or at least I assume based on pictures).

What do you all think about using exotic bags in any weather? Do their bags stay in good condition? Should I just go for it and not worry about how the bag will ultimately look?

Neonoe bicolor monogram

Hi everyone!

I hope you are well and enjoying the summer.

After getting the store credit for my defective canvas Neonoe, I will be getting the Neonoe in bicolor empreinte leather, however for the life of me I can’t decide on the color.
It will be my every day bag like the old one used to be.
I think I’m in love with the turtle dove/crémé color (that I have tried and looks good on me) but I’m worried about color transfer and the bag not being as wearable in winter. I do wear a lot of dark colors and jeans, not really brown “neutral” colors as I am as pale as it gets.
On the other side the black/beige was the one I wanted for the longest time, haven’t tried it yet on me but I feel black/beige/red and gold colors in a bag may be a bit louder.
I did try the all black though it looks good on me, the leather is half as thick as the other two so I’ll skip it.

Any advise? If anyone has feedback on the color transfer for the turtle dove color or in general the leather quality/issues of the model I’d be grateful!
Thanks a lot in advance!

Selling my Chanel flap with Sotheby's or Christie's

Has anyone sold a Chanel bag with Sotheby's or Christie's? I'd like to know if one is better than the other, or general experiences. I tried to sell a bag on the online portal (for a fixed price set by Sotheby's after authenticating), and they instead decided to sell it in their 'salon'. However, after four months it still hasn't sold and they now say that UK-based bags can't be sold online. So I'm considering trying my luck with Christie's instead. I prefer a recognised auction house as I feel they're more credible and they do all the legwork.

Can Anyone help dupe the Chanel Coco Flash color Boy

Hi ladies - so I LOVE the Chanel Coco Flash lipstick in the color Boy. However it doesn’t stay very long. It is the perfect taupey-beige - non - pink, non-orange leaning brown so I can’t seem to replicate it in either a lipstick ( satin) or lipgloss. Closest I’ve come is MAC lipglass in Explicit but it is too sticky and I want to stick with the quality of higher end / luxury. Can anyone please suggest anything that looks like the color Boy - I am in Myrtle Beach and there are NO high end stores here to see cosmetics in person- I moved from Jersey / NYC border and was used to Nordstom and Neiman Marcus to see in person. Only Dillards which has VERY limited choices in Dior ( their glosses seem to lean orangey) and Chanel. Nothing seems to look like BOY. Thanks in advance.

Thoughts on next Birkin and MK wishlist?

Currently have a Pico in Black, K25 in black with GHW and a K25 Etoupe bag. Figuring out my next wishlist… most loved Birkin combos? I’ve been eyeing the B25 in Noir with PHW and the gold on gold.

Which would you put on your WL if you had the above collection?

I also love the mini K in Vert Jade and Menthe. Any thoughts on these? Would love to see some pics of Minis or K25s in these shades. Thank you!

CHANEL Lambskin Quilted Small Wenge Wood Flap

Anyone know what this bag sold for originally? I got it as a gift but will never use it. Was thinking of selling and want a fair price. I looked online and they sold one for $6500.

Different leathers used on flamencos?

Hi all - I purchased a NWT angora flamenco (original anagram ver) from an ebay seller and am a little surprised by the feel of the leather? I have an old mini flamenco in rosemary that is smoother and more buttery in feel than this new bag. Did the anagram angora bags come in a different leather? Certificate card reads "100% Vacuno-Calf Skin" but I'm not sure if that's different from the nappa.

No other red flags aside from this textural difference. It's authenticity guaranteed per ebay and I'm using legitgrails to get another opinion

I am deciding between a couple of beautiful pieces from Harry Winston. I do not "need" any of them, so it just comes down to what is a favorite at the moment which I am having trouble deciphering! I also can't try on in person so all photos are not me. Any input would be amazing :smile: :heart:
