Hello! Been revisiting my LP collection lately (I have a LLH, a MSH, and a small neo with the shoulder strap and top handle). Traveling to Paris in a few weeks-are there any France exclusive items to look out for? Something hard to find in the States? Would love a souvenir.
The Neo was the last bag I purchased so I am out of practice. Casual lifestyle post Covid-driving kids to activities etc. (work bag is a Neverfull and remains the same).
What should I consider?

I used to buy a lot of H. Less so in last few years. I would just ring around stores to get what I wanted and then get delivered or travel.
I now see that European stores all simply go through to a central number - and a very unhelpful person at the end of that line.
So am I missing something? How do I find out if a store has what I’m looking for? The very unhelpful central line person simply said to go to store. I’m hundreds of miles from most stores!!!!

I am so torn. I went in to buy the white. Then I saw the green and really loved it…but I’m worried that it’s too trendy and I’ll never wear it. And now I’m questioning if I should just get black and make it easy but I don’t love black. I’m so confused. What would you do? Please tpfers!

Hello everyone !
I'm probably going to pull the trigger on the mini Alexa soon ... The problem is I have to choose between the old vs the new version !
My style is comfy with a touch of vintage and I love love love soft leather... I don't know if the comparison is ok but for instance I hugely prefer the old Chloe Marcie over the new one if that can help !
My choice would be soft polished buffalo in black with silver hardware but it's so hard to find
Any advice highly appreciated !

Let’s share our August 2023 Chanel purchases here!

Hello my wonderful tpf friends! Happy August! And a lovely shout out to @23adeline for reminding me I was a bit slow starting this August thread today as the PI hit at the stroke of midnight my time last night, and gave me a shock!2 PIs in a span of 2 months which is a first.

But none the less we will still be buying the LV goodies that we love or have preordered so let’s post the eye candy here to share with everyone.

Also wishing the august babies a wonderful birthday month too! Enjoy everyone

I have been shopping on Etsy since 2015. Never had an issue with an item where I felt compelled to return or complain. For 7 years. Beginning last October, I have consistently received items that are overpriced, fake, cheaply made, poor quality, broken etc. Of my last 10 purchases 7 have been garbage. The other 3 have been such amazing quality. Anyone else notice this? Anyone sell on there? It seems like the site went from sellers who take pride in making unique products to crap from a flea market.

I’m trying to decide what to stack with my tennis bracelet and Cartier JUC. I’m worried about scratches with the Guilloche. I’ve heard you can’t restore the gold since it’s laser cut. But I find the Guilloche very pretty. Is the hammer a better compromise for scratches? The stone bracelets are beautiful, but too delicate for daily wear IMO. If I went with a stone it would likely be MOP which I also think is divine, but it has the potential to shrink with water, hand washing, etc. do you think these are meant for stacking at all? Or would it be better to wear alone and without my current stack? TIA!

I got a few quotes from fashionphile as I want to refresh my collection and am wondering what to buy. I have a bunch of black bags so I plan to sell my black quilted shopping tote, so black gabrielle, and iridescent beige chevron statement flap (if I decide on the beige classic).

From the Ferragamo website...

Hug handbag medium (also comes in small)


Neiman's has a good shot of interior


Also a pouch, though I think proportions look odd


New Gancini symbol (on some items) and yay for a back pocket!

So I just got my first Kelly (a 28 Sellier in stoupe) and want to wear it anytime I can, however a few of my other pieces that I love are in gold (my Oasis sandals which are my dressy go to shoes when we travel and the new strap for my Apple Watch). Would they look odd together? Do I need to re-evaluate a bit my travel/capsule wardrobe?

Hello,
Could someone tell if it is possible to get a Birkin 25, which i want to present to my girlfriend, having no purchase historic?

Thanks in advance!

Moving this from the sales/deals thread. I posted about purchasing a small tan puzzle from BG with their 15% off welcome code plus the 15% rakuten cashback and I know several people placed orders after that. Mine came in today after about 2 weeks and is clearly a floor model. There is a dent in the flap, a nick of missing leather on the base of it, and the corners are dirty (both leather and stitching). If it were black I probably wouldn't have been able to see half of the wear and tear. The anagram is debossed and not white as pictured, and it did come in a loewe dust bag- for those that were interested in that info. It is going back. While it was a good deal I'm not willing to wait for another to arrive in bad shape again.

Another passing... Really enjoyed the Pee Wee Herman show as a kid.

I'm so torn! I like both the Alma bb (DE or epi) and the My Heritage speedy 25. I have reservations regarding the size of the Alma bb. Concerned it may be a bit too small and I don't like playing tetris in my bags. I currently have a my heritage classic speedy 30, but really wish I had chosen either the 30b or 25b and had gone with a different color scheme. My current bag is navy/gris with gris lining. If I had it to do over again, I'd probably choose marine/fuschia with fuschia lining in the 25b.

Any opinions or thoughts would be definitely be appreciated.

Hi everyone! With a price increase looming, I'm thinking of making a quick purchase by end of day today. The Pochette Metis East West has been haunting me for a while now and the PI might be the thing that pushes me to make the decision.

I'm just not sure which to get! My wardrobe is 99% casual (like, mostly athleisure or occasional jeans/joggers and tee with sneakers) but I feel any of these prints could work. I'll probably wear it crossbody or occasional shoulder, but not likely use the chain unless I have a reason for something more fancy.

Monogram - Goes with pretty much everything.

Empriente Black Leather - Might be a little too "fancy lady" for my wardrobe? I have an empriente black Speedy 20 that I have never carried which tells me I should probably steer away from this one?

Monoglam - Go crazy and get the pretty, shiny bag? I'm really in love with this print and think it might be fun.

Any feedback on the three above would be great! I can't get into the store before the PI so will be purchasing online.

Or do I say to heck with all of these and get the NeoNoe BB in Monogram (which has also been on my want list)?

Hi everyone,

Can you tell me the best site to buy a purse organizer? I have several Saint Laurent purses: Camera x3, Small Puffer x2, Toy Puffer x2, Niki Raffia in Medium and Jamie Raffia. My collection has grown huge this year! and I feel like Id like to protect the inside. Im not sure about inserts for the toy puffers but for the rest Id like to get an organizer.

Is it better to buy felt? If so which felt is better 1 mm or 2mm thickness?

Thanks in advance

Please HELP me pick a colour for the Buci bag. I gravitate towards colour but open to black. I can’t decide!!

I’m a bright spring if that helps with my colouring.

Thank you in advance!!

I’ve been wanting the YG Guilloche bracelet for some time now and have popped into several stores while traveling to see if it would serendipitously be available for purchase. I’m told by advisors that I can place an order for one but it would be about 4 months or so.

I’ve also been checking the website daily to see if it’s available for purchase. I called into customer service and was put on their waiting list which the sweet representative told me is about 6-12 months long? Strange that they seem to have differing timelines, but it must be different inventory.

My question to you all… if you have a YG Guilloche bracelet, did you order yours online or find it available in store? Or did you order it in the store? How long did it take for you to get it in hand?

Does anyone have any experience shopping in the Grand Cayman? Is Cartier or Rolex cheaper there vs. the US? Thanks for any info!

I'm looking at golden South Sea pearl studs. I have a golden South Sea pearl pendant necklace from Mikimoto. It's simple and perfect.
Now looking at studs. Online, Tiffany has 9-10 mm. Haven't yet been to the store. Online, Mikimoto has 11mm studs. Also haven't seen them in person. I'm in NYC so easy to visit them.
The price of the Mikimoto pearls is 5X the price of the Tiffany. Without seeing then in person, and assuming they're both amazing, is Mikimoto worth it?
I have to add that my personal preference, (personality defect?) is to buy the best always, and I've been happy that I have.
So please help me out here.
TIA
Here's my MM necklace.

Hi! I just got my brand new K28 from my local boutique last week. I noticed that there’s no rain jacket or “rainhat” in the box. I can always buy another branded one but would you reach out to your SA? He opened it in front of me, so not sure if this was supposed to be in the box? The leather care book is included but not the “Rainhat”.

Hi all! Hubby and I are going away for our 10 year anniversary. Yay First real child free trip in years. Which bag works with these 2 dresses? I have other bags but I obviously don’t want to bring a super high value bag as we will be in a hotel and I don’t love leaving it behind. I plan to bring a big tote, my mini nylon Prada backpack for day shopping and one of these for dinners. The dresses are so different it’s stumping me. Planning to just bring a pair of nude heels for both dresses. Thoughts? And could also bring the light blue delvaux clutch/pouch and use it worst case as I may use it a catch all in my tote anyways.

I was wondering if you travel with your Goyard... I saw the question on the Hermès forum and it piqued my curiosity.
Do you take your Goyard on a business trip or on vacation? If so, which bag do you prefer? Do you protect it in transit? If so, how? What was your experience like traveling with your Goyard?

I'm thinking about carrying my Saint Louis PM black/black with me on my next trip to Rome and Milan...

Hi! I bought a Vlogo reversible belt in Pink/Dark Brown (rose couture/fondant) from Browns Fashion and it has a strong chemical smell, possibly paint but it gives me a headache. It was in dustbag and box and the box has the smell too. I also ordered the exact same belt for my future DIL from Italist and it has the same strong chemical smell. Does anyone have this belt and had this issue. And has anyone ordered from either of these online shops and gotten fakes? I think it would be weird that I ended up with 2 fakes from 2 different online boutiques. I appreciate any help.
Thanks!
