Which watch next ?

Okay…. So I bought one watch and now I’m truly addicted. (This is going to be a problem 😂)

Deciding on my next watch to buy, which one do you like more?

(Also.. do you think the diamond bezel on the datejust is too flashy for every day/ casual wear?)

2nd love Bracelet

Hi everyone, I have had my love bracelet in the regular size, yellow gold for about a year and a half. I love it so much. I have been debating adding a second love in the regular size in yellow gold with the 4 diamonds. What do you all think about this? For those of you with 2 does it get heavy? Are the diamonds worth it?

Bad quality Bottega bag purchased in Italy

I just recently had a family member help me purchase a Bottega bang bang vanity bag when he was on vacation in Italy. When he returned to the U.S. and gave me the bag, I realized that the zipper is almost impossible to zip, and it just feels like it is defective zipper / poor quality bag. This is my first time purchasing a bag from Bottega, so I’m not quite sure what to expect. I know that on their website, it says that items can only be returned in the country it was purchased in but does anyone know if Bottega will let me at least exchange the item in the U.S.? Or if they will fix without charge? The bag was purchased less than a week ago. It would be extremely frustrating to have spent thousands of dollars on a bag I can’t even use or have to spend money on to fix.

28mm or 31mm datejust

Hello! I’ll be buying my very first Rolex. (I have the small panthere in steel already)
My Rolex will be my second watch and most likely the only watches I’ll ever own & want.
I went into an AD a couple of days ago and told her what configuring I wanted. My dream watch is the two tone datejust, jubilee bracelet, fluted bezel, champagne face with diamond markers & size 31mm.
She called me only a couple of days later and said she has one available for me exact same watch I wanted but it is a 28mm. I am 5’4, and my wrists are petite/average I’d say.
When I tried both sizes on in the boutique I loved the 31mm more but I said if a 28mm becomes available that I would take it as well.
Now that it’s available I don’t know what to do. It seems too good to be true to get one so fast in almost the exact one I wanted.
I do love both sizes, but I love the 31mm more.

Do I jump on this opportunity to get the 28mm ? Or do I keep waiting and see if a 31mm comes available eventually?
Thank you !

Help with next Cartier purchase!

Recently got my Love Cuff in YG. I’m already vying for another piece to add to my collection.
I like the diamond small JUC..but not sure if I really love it…

I would really like to add another love Cuff in yellow gold. I was considering white gold but it seems too dark for me.
Can I see some of your stacks with 2 love bracelets? Am I nuts for going for 2 love and not a JUC. I’m just not sure if it’s for me. TIA lovelies!!!

Hi everyone i am interested in seeing all the luxury vintage bags that you have invested in. With the newest bags quality going down and prices going way high i am starting to prefer vintage .

VCA Turquoise WG 20 motif question

Hi everyone, I am in no way soliciting a sale.

I am just interested in everyone’s thoughts before I go ahead with a sale.

I purchased a turquoise 20 motif WG hardware necklace in NY in 2011. I believe it was the last piece for sale in the US as they stoped production that year as they told me. I have worn the piece on and off (maybe 20-30 times) and as I have other pieces it does not get the wear that it should. I now have a grandson and 2 children (adults) who are looking to purchase houses for themselves.

I am thinking of selling the piece to give the proceeds to my adult children instead of it sitting in my safe. I am just after what everyone’s thoughts are re: how to sell (maybe an auction) and realistically what the piece would be worth.

Any opinions either way would be appreciated.

Advice for next Chanel Bag 💙😬

Hi lovely ladies!

I m thinking of getting another bag or two from chanel soon - currently in my collection - 2 coco handles one medium one small, chanel classic medium, chanel jumbo, mini square, woc, one mini reissue, two 22s in small (caramel otw to me)

I’m thinking of another 22! Is that too much? Probably medium I’m about 5’ 5 or
Another mini reissue (love the light grey on the site) mine is coral

Or the seasonal below (in larger size) could only find the mini one on the site

Or last one - mini 22 in pale yellow 😜

But I’m getting the chanel Kelly in pink from a reseller already, so I want another one that is slightly larger so that I can use at work if necessary - I have a separate laptop bag usually ❤️

Thanks in advance! ⭐️

LV Carryall Vibe/Dark MM

Hi purse lovers!!
Hoping to get some help to decide whether the LV Carryall Dark MM is a good bag to get. I came across this bag from the upcoming Murakami collection but loves the underrated look with minimal touch of monogram. However, it looks huge on the pics and i am worried about lamb skin as an every day bag. Does anyone have this bag that can give me some insights, pro/con on it. How’s the wear and tear? Do you use it as an everyday bag or just travel? Any modshots would be wonderful!!
Thank you all for your help :smile: happy holidays!
