My new obsession is patent leather. I've gotten over sequin, leopard prints, metallic, and shearling for now.
They may not shine if there's no light, but when there is light, it's a sight to behold:

YSL Le 5 a 7 black patent:
YSL Midnight small clutch red patent:

Hi there! Anyone know what bag Tina Fey is carrying in the first episode of Four Seasons on Netflix? It looks like a deep forest green.

I wear my rose gold JUC and white gold D’amour bracelet everyday. I’ve been on the hunt for a white gold or silver bangle (other than Cartier) and I just saw this new design by DY. Does anyone have this bracelet? Do you think it works with my current stack? 🤍
Pochette Metis Lock Issue?

Hi everyone, I have a quick question.
Is it hard for you to close your bag? I noticed I have to press directly on the leather tab to hear the “click” and get it to close (circled in black) —pressing on the hardware itself doesn’t seem to work. I hope that makes sense...
With my older PM from 2018, I just pressed on the hardware itself and it clicked shut easily (circled in red). Has anyone else noticed this difference? Or did I get a defective one?
The sales associates told me that it was normal as they were also struggling to close the bag… I took it home because I didn't want to cause an issue but it's still bothering me.
TIA!

Watches: Quartz vs Mechanical vs Automatic (quick cheat sheet)

Hello all, this is nothing new to watch lovers but I see mechanical and automatic used interchangeably as if they were the same and sorry, I just had to scratch an itch. 
Taken straight from Google AI:
A watch movement, also known as a calibre, is the internal mechanism that powers a watch and enables it to tell time. It's the "engine" of the watch, responsible for moving the hands and powering any additional features like chronographs or calendars.
There are three main types of watch movements: mechanical, automatic, and quartz.
Power Source: Mechanical and automatic movements use a mainspring, while quartz movements use a battery.
Maintenance: Mechanical movements require winding, either manually or automatically, and may require occasional servicing. Quartz movements are typically more low-maintenance, as they only require battery replacements.
Accuracy: Quartz movements are generally more accurate than mechanical movements, as they rely on the precise frequency of a quartz crystal.
Price: Mechanical and automatic movements are generally more expensive than quartz movements, due to their complexity and the craftsmanship involved in their construction.
Feel free to add on anything else you find informative/helpful. Or if there's something wrong, please give an update. Thank you.

There are three main types of watch movements: mechanical, automatic, and quartz.
- Mechanical Movements:
These rely on a mainspring, which is wound either manually (by the user) or automatically (by the movement of the wearer's wrist). They use a series of gears and springs to regulate the release of energy, driving the hands and other complications.
- Automatic Movements:
A type of mechanical movement that utilizes a rotor (a weighted wheel) to wind the mainspring when the watch is worn. The motion of the wrist causes the rotor to rotate, which then winds the mainspring.
- Quartz Movements:
These use a battery to power the watch, and a quartz crystal to regulate the movement. The battery sends an electrical current through the crystal, causing it to vibrate at a precise frequency, which then drives the hands and other functions.

Can sandals be made shorter in the front?

I know I need a pedicure. Just got my winter feet out of socks!! I also have one foot a half size shorter than the other. 🤷🏻♀️😂
I have a pair of Aquazurra tequila flat sandals. The SA talked me into them, said they “looked great” last year 🙄. I really hate the pointed space in front of my toes. My question is could a cobbler shorten these at the front to make these closer to the tops of my toes? Has anyone had this done? Does it look as silly as I think it does?
