first Burberry scarf!

Hi everyone! I have a work reward coming where I can select any item from YSL, GUCCI, or Burberry - up to $750 in value. I am looking at getting a Cashmere Classic scarf, but I won't see them in person and I want to choose the right color.
I am a pink/purple person and I was wondering if anyone had any feedback or photos on the below colors:

ALABASTER

PALE CANDY PINK

SOFT PISTACHIO

SOFT LILAC

SOFT PEACH

Customisation

Hi! I am considering purchasing a vintage cabas alto and customising it with standard keepall/speedy handles to make it a handheld tote/travel piece rather than a shoulder bag. I’m aware I will have to remove the original straps and hardware. I will upcycle the strap leather to reattach the new handle hardware portion back to monogram canvas. hardwareWhat does everyone think?

SJP SATC Fendi Baguette

I just placed an order for the Purple Rain sequin baguette! Yay! It officially relaunched today! I was also lucky enough to secure the nano version from the website a couple of days ago. The nano is in store ready to be picked up, but my Purple Rain won't be delivered until the end of February. It's okay, I'm just happy I was able to get 1 out of 105! Good luck to all those who want this same bag!

Loose Touret

Is it normal for a touret to be a bit loose? I know it is not "normal" but is this a thing that can happen? It is not loose as in it is about to fall out but it turns very loosely instead of having a little resistance if that makes sense. Has anyone else experienced this with their Kelly or Birkin

Thank you :heart:

Panthere rings

Hi everyone. I'm looking at these two Panthere rings! I like both, however, I prefer the big one more. My only problem that the big version is little too much for "everyday". And for that price I would love to wear it as much as I can. On the other hand, the smaller version is more suitable for everyday? I'm not sure. Considering that I can't find a lot of pictures on social media (unlike Love and JUC), I believe it's not that popular or indeed it's for special occasions.
Guys, what's your opinion about these two rings? Maybe some of you own one?

Certificate of Craft (Lifetime Warranty)

What are your thoughts on the latest announcement from Bottega Veneta? Do you think bags purchased from authorized retailers are included in the warranty?

Chanel belt bag?

I've been thinking about getting a belt bag, one that can also be worn crossbody. The ones that are being sold now seem so tiny though, I would only buy if it fits my phone. I've seen some vintage ones that are a better size but they don't have chain belts which I would prefer.

Does anyone have a belt bag, are you happy with it and wear it a lot? Or is it a trend that's fading?

Perlee clover ring advice?

Hi dear TPF'ers!

Could I get your opinion on what I should do?
I've been looking for the older 13 mm version of the Perlee clover ring for some time now. Unfortunately it is discontinued and also not resizeable.

I was excited to find it recently in my size! Here's my dilemma: because the ring is so tall, it actually fits best on my left hand ring finger, as it is just a touch longer than my right hand ring finger. I think if I were to wear this as a right hand ring (as I had originally hoped) I would have to find the size to fit my right hand middle finger.

So...wear this on my left hand on occasion, and just not wear my wedding rings on those dates? Or return and hope to find it in a slightly larger size in the future? Do you ladies sometimes just rock your VCA rings instead of your wedding rings?

I guess another option is to buy the current version, which would be thin enough to wear on my right hand ring finger. I just do prefer how the older version looks.

Thanks for helping me think out this silly "dilemma" :flowers:

Neonoe Black Bicolour Empreinte - Deal Breaker or......

Hi Everyone

I have the black bicolour empreinte speedy B25 and I adore her. Use her everyday. Now scared that I will wear her out so am considering another bag in the same print to swap it out and save the wear and tear.

I love the Neonoe but don't love not having an internal pocket for my phone.

I can cope with putting my lip balm etc in the pouch that is attached to the side but with the open internal space not having any divider, will it just become a black hole and I'll never be able to find anything in there?

If you have the bag, how do you find it?

Any regrets?

I am also concerned about how easy it is to access with the drawstring. Does that soften and get easier to use over time?

I already have a Graceful MM - otherwise I was looking at the Neverfull but the Neonoe in Bicolour is just next level hot to me and with no internal divider, it seems to be able to hold alot more than a canvas Neonoe.

Would love your advice.

Michael Kors Recommendations for similar size/style to ‘LOVE’ Jet Set Carryall Tote

MIL (50’s) uses this MK ‘LOVE’ Jet Set Travel Carryall as her daily driver (I haven’t looked for the tag/serial number, but comparing to online).

It’s still in good shape but the straps are cracking and just thinking of Christmas gifts!

From what I can tell she has strictly MK, but I don’t think it’s because she’s necessarily brand loyal but more the “tried and true” of shopping the same place. So! any suggestions for something around the same dimensions/style as the MK Love Caryall would be appreciated!!!

**PS I’ve guesstimated on its size but I’ve seen anywhere from 10.5”w to 15”w listed online, handle drop between 8-9”. Help! See link for example photos: https://www.tradesy.com/i/michael-k...ash-greynavy-love-leather-shoulder-/24366903/

New Loulou from Neiman Marcus came damaged

Just received my first YSL bag, small loulou, from Neiman Marcus. I was so excited when I opened it. But this is what I found… scratches and big blob of glue on leather…. The price tag attached showed the old price ($2290).

I am already starting a return process with Neiman Marcus, but they said they cannot exchange it so I would have to order another one again. I am nervous if I will be receiving another bag with defects….

I just wanted to vent and also hope to hear from you all that receiving two defective bags should be quite rare. Or is this expected for YSL products in general??

Help! Etiquette for returning a remote/special order

My amazing SA in London got in a $6k dress for me and has been holding it for months now because their online payment system/my cc weren’t cooperating. Now that I’m finally back in the area, I went to the store to buy it, but thought it looked smaller than expected in person and discovered it doesn’t fit! Is it terrible etiquette to not purchase the dress after all the trouble my SA went through to get it shipped to the store and then hold it forever? Or is it not a big deal? It was a super limited item so I have no idea what’s right. Thank you so much for any advice!!

Belvedere 2 PM strap length

Hello everyone!! I recently purchased the Belvedere PM in black on black and I’m in love with it… except for one problem: I find the strap length quite long. When I compared it to my Cap Vert I see that it hangs much lower. Do you all know if GOYARD can add holes to the strap, or should I just take it to my local shoe repair specialist (I’m just worried about messing up the strap ) any help would be greatly appreciated! TIA

Valextra authenticate…thoughts on this bag?

Hi Valextra enthusiasts! I am new to the brand but saw this beauty listed on a consignment site for $450. I did a moderately thorough search on this forum but have never seen anyone post about this style before. I can’t imagine Valextra fakes are popular (minimalist, no logos, no brand recognition with the general population). Does anyone have any insight on this bag before I pull the trigger? Thanks in advance!
