Is it me or?!?

I was looking through Tiffany’s website for the T line for a ring.

I’m not sure if it’s because I’m looking at it at a weird angle in bed/ am wearing glasses or maybe it’s a photoshopped image or the camera angle but don’t the rings look insanely big on the models’ hands/ fingers?

Like I’ve seen the ring in person and always thought it was quite dainty but online here it looks too big somehow?!?59ABEFA4-1FE7-4A35-AF7C-5F00482D9D7B.jpeg5A129C22-C1D8-419E-803E-BA4E18A0BD6B.jpegC5B887A6-722B-41CF-9F95-8936FEAD3E58.jpeg

Passed Poshmark's authentication, now deemed a fake by Poshmark after reposhing

Hello,

Just wanted to share my experience. I bought a pair of Chanel ballet flats on Poshmark in 2019. It was deemed authentic by their authenticators and it got sent to me.

Fast forward to 2022, I reposhed the same Chanel ballet flats as I've never used it. It sold and got sent to Poshmark for authentication. I received an email from Poshmark that they cannot confirm it as authentic and I cannot relist the same item as the sale of counterfeits are against their policies.

It is a good thing I kept everything, including the card Poshmark sends whenever the item passes authentication. I emailed them asking them how can it pass authentication the first time, so far I have not heard back.

PS1 Tiny in Saddle?

My new to me Tiny in Saddle arrived today. I thought the color would be something close to this (image from ref. thread):

….this is what I have:

I’m so confused. It’s a mousy, kinda blah, milk chocolatey brown. It was purchased 6/17 from PS, and it says Saddle on the receipt. I’ve seen a zillion pix of PS bags in Saddle, not one looks like mine.

Does anyone own The Age Bag from the brand Advene?

Been contemplating this Age Bag from the lesser-known brand Advene for a while but the price point is a little too high for me given there’s no crossbody strap. The design looks cool though. Any real user wants to share your feedback? Is it heavy? How do you like it in terms of practicality and capacity? Is it worth the ~600 USD price point?

Chanel Slides

Hi everyone! I’m able to get a pair of these slides from 21s but I have no idea what size I would need! Does anyone have these and can you tell me if they run typical to Chanel sizing (small)? I’m usually a 7.5-8 (39 in Ballerinas and espadrilles) and can only get these in a 38. Will they be too small?

Thanks!

Louis Vuitton Stephen Sprouse Neverfull from Fashionphile

OK, I've always wanted a Stephen Sprouse LV bag, and I saw this on Fashionphile. But is it worth $3,450? I love it and the green Stephen Sprouse is my favorite, too, and I just love this. I've read some horror stories about purchasing from Fashionphile, so I wasn't sure if this was worth the money they're asking.

What do you guys think, should I do it?

Leather Intrecciato Structure Clutch Bag

Hi BV fans! I’m new to the brand but have become enamored with the various clutch/pouch styles BV offers. One I haven’t been able to find discussion about is the “structure clutch.” It looks so lovely and sculptural but I also have no idea how to think about capacity/how the shape changes when packed. Does anyone have this beauty? TIA

Would you give your bank info to a second hand reseller?

I have a few Chanels that I am trying to sell. They are jumbos so FP doesn’t want them, only wants minis and smalls according to them.

I just submitted to MyGemma and it was a bit freaky, they called me 12 min after I hit “submit” with an offer over the phone. They pay immediately once they receive the bag but they do it via wire transfer. That makes me super nervous. I asked about other forms of payment and they offered snail mail check.

Would you give your info for a wire transfer? I have never done business with MyGemma before…

Which colour for K25?

Hi all! Hope everyone is doing well! I have a dilemma on picking my k25 colour...I have a k28 in black sellier epsom and b25 in gray togo, originally I really wanted a k25 in pink (rose sakura or mauve sylvestre), but now as I think more, I feel like I will get more use out of a dark neutral colour. The other thing that bothers me is the dark grain colour for light colours in epsom over time.

Do you think it's too much to have a k25 in black? Should I pick sellier again or retourne? I personally prefer structured bags more so leaning towards sellier, but in phw? or should I pick navy such as bleu nuit or bleu indigo? I love gold too but it's harder to match my outfits, and not a fan of etoupe

any thoughts would be much appreciated!

WESTCLOSET ID - SCAM ALERT

SCAM ALERT

Westcloset ID (on Google now renamed as LUXURIOUS to escape Google searches of reviews of her scam)

Physical store with Singapore business registration - owner’s name is Ringga Dwi Rizky Irianto (public information from downloadable business registration doc from ACRA) - you can find her identification number and addresses in such a doc as well.

Two scam modes she run -

(1) Collects pre order deposits for bags (mostly Hermes) that do not exist. Does not deliver the bag, and refuse to refund deposit. Victims collecting since 2021 and 2022, scam amounts ranging from $7.5k to >$100k.

(2) Takes in consignment bags, sells them or GIVES them to older victims to pay off owed amounts, and withholds payment from consignors. Multiple consignor victims have already surfaced. Withheld proceeds in the tens of thousands per victim.

She will make empty promises and sell you pity stories related to her health and her children, including her dying and then revived after 8 minutes (yes, what a joke!). She will claim she is “not running” and her “store is open” - strangely though, never open when you want to collect money.

Victims, COME FORWARD, DO NOT STAY SILENT! Many of you have reached out and we have done the right things to ensure crooks and scammers like Westcloset get taken down. In this age, it’s law enforcement and social media and public awareness. Let’s do our part to protect one another from crooks like Westcloset!

Here’s a link below to a thread with a few victims. There are many others out there so let’s band together!

Light moisturizer makeup for exercise -BB creme?

I have never worn makeup other than eyeliner and dot-on concealer when needed if I have a little red spot to cover. Now that I am in my 40's I would like to find a very light but water-resistant and tinted face makeup to ease into wearing makeup on the skin of my face, ideally with some SPF coverage. I currently just use a very light moisturizer with SPF on my face. My main challenge is that I am a daily runner (right after work, so no chance to wash my face beforehand), and I hate the feeling of foundation, traditional face powder or even traditional thick sunscreen when I am running and also would not want something that would come off onto my clothes when my skin gets moist from exercise. I have slightly dry/combination, sensitive skin, so most makeups make my skin start to flake and peel immediately (primer beforehand does help - this is what I use under my dot-on concealer, and it has made a big difference). I have read some articles about recommendations for makeup to wear for exercise, and it seems that most recommend a water-resistant, light, tinted BB creme with SPF. Does this sound like a good place to start? Ideally, I want something similar to a light skin moisturizer for sensitive skin that will give me some light even color and SPF. I would love recommendations for specific brands, since most of the products recommended are no longer available or have new formulations. I would like to start with options under ~$60 since I will probably need to try a few before I find one that will work. Thanks!
