Etienne Aigner

I need help authenticating this purse - I can’t find any information on it. It’s old but in great condition and has original stamped on the metal logo. It’s an Etienne Aigner bag - curious to know the price range

Brands that make nickel-free white gold (palladium white gold)?

I’ve been on a hunt to find which jewelry brands have white gold that is nickel-free and made with palladium instead! Specifically with earrings, I think I have a mild nickel sensitivity that I don’t want to get worse. Please comment any brands that you know of or any recs you might have!
So far I’ve confirmed with these brands:
♥︎ VCA
♥︎ Cartier
♥︎ Tiffany
♥︎ Chaumet

LE dix First confused....help me out

Hey there ladies

Forgive me if this is redundant.

I'm confused..I've never been good at authenticating the earliest bags, and my research has left me puzzled.

I've always wanted one of the smooth black le dix firsts, but I'd probably like the caribou also of I saw it in person.

But I'm lost as to what order they were issued in, and which label goes with what leather? And if they are all flat brass or not? Do they have mirrors and straps?

And is there a dark blue one too?

Also does anyone have one of the original 25, and how do we know that's the number.

Again forgive me if these are dumb questions. When I searched I got a big jumble and some expired pics.

Thanks if you don't mind walking me through this....

LV Ready to Wear Repair

I purchased a RTW LV sweater and wore it once. I was mortified to see that there was a hole in garment by the seam. My CA told me to take it to a tailor and they will reimburse me. I am so upset. I spent a fortune on this sweater and it is unacceptable to pay this much and need a repair immediately. Does anyone have any recommendations? At the very least, I feel I should be able to get store credit. I would prefer to get a full refund. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks. IMG_4640.jpeg

Help me choose which cardholder

Which one?

    Votes: 22 50.0%

I’m getting conflicting info from everyone. I’m looking to find a new cardholder since I’ve had my LV coin purse for 5 years now and it’s time for a change. I don’t really use cash much but I do carry a $20 “just in case”.

I’m looking for an everyday card holder that can fit in all sizes of bags including small crossbodys and can’t decide between these two. Added a poll to help with the decision. Thanks!

Necklace doesn't suit me - advice

Hi all,

I bought a sweet alhambra in hammered RG - I had tried on the sweet carnelian and liked the RG but wanted something a bit different. The SA said they could order the all rose gold but there would be no returns or exchanges, I agreed to the order anyway. Now it has arrived, it looked nice in store but in the natural light the colour pulls orange and doesn't suit me. I would have exchanged for something gold but the SA said it was not possible. Is there anything I can do? And if not, what is the best way to sell?

Anyone have any suggestions as to what I do next?

I sent Rebag my squeeze bag, with everything including the box. The bag is in excellent condition. They received the bag, according to Fedex on 11-11. They didn't pay me, so on Friday 11-22 I sent an email stating that I wanted my bag returned to me. I was sent an email the following Tuesday stating that my back would be returned within 7 days. When that went by without any bag, I sent an email and was told the bag would be sent out by last Friday the 6th. That date has come and gone, not bag, and now I've sent 3 emails to rebag that have gone unanswered. No tracking info, no indication that it's been sent. What do I do now? Rebag has my 5k Loewe bag. Any suggestions?

Thoughts on omega style necklaces?

Hi! What are your thoughts on omega style necklaces? I saw one in a jewelry store yesterday and really like the way it sat on my neck. I have a very uneven neckline due to surgery in that area, and necklaces often sit assymetrically, especially shorter ones. But this one actually held its shape AND it lay nicely against my skin.

Are omega necklaces "in," "out" or are they a timeless, classic style?

Thanks! (some pics below from the internet to illustrate what I'm talking about - these are not me, just photos from an image search)

VCA Guilloche in yg

Hi, I’m purchasing the 10 motif onyx tomorrow but also thinking of putting an order for the 10 motif guilloche in YG. The boutique didn’t have it in store for me to try so my SA had me try the one with pave diamonds just to give me an idea. Do you think the 10 motif guilloche will look too much on me?

Chanel mini rectangular - how rare it really is?

Yesterday got my first Chanel bag in Berlin. Just a question for you guys. Is really chanel mini rectangle that rare? Yesterday I went to Chanel first time in my life, I had no purchase history. I wanted to ask about mini rectangular, but was sure that I will have no luck, since everyone says that its rare. One thing - I went with my friend who bought there 2 bags few years ago. I asked for chanel mini rectangle, the lady looked at me, probably was thinking if its worth to show me, and she told me that she has only one left. But I kinda felt that is was a scam and she probably has a few. I don’t know why, it just felt dishonest. She showed me and finally I bought it. I was shocked. I didnt expect that. So what do you think, how is it. Are they really that rare? Was I just lucky? Or they say on purpose that they never have it?

Vintage Murakami eye candy

I think there’s some gorgeous photos of members’ vintage Murakami items hidden away in some threads and I think they deserve their own thread.

While we lust after the new collection, shall we make a little gallery here with photos of our just-as-beautiful items?

I only have a photo of my cerises bucket but will post photos of my panda pochette once there’s a bit better light here.

Pouch with strap

Hi - does anyone have the pouch with strap in the white/brown triomphe print? Or has felt it in person?

I thought it was canvas, but reading the description it says it’s “textile” fabric. Curious if it’s going to be durable or not.

In comparison, this other textile pouch looks more woven: https://www.celine.com/en-int/celin...tile-with-celine-jacquard-10J502FRK.14ML.html

Holiday Pendant 2025 - any guesses?

Since that we're only 10 months away from the next Holiday Pendant, do you have any guesses? Even though I don't wear much yellow gold, I'm still hoping for a yellow gold. Maybe we'll finally get the purple we deserve...Diamonds in Dubai had lots of cool suggestions for this year's Holiday Pendant, sodalite, thulite and amazonite were stunning! If it's white or rose gold again (I wouldn't have a problem with that either though) all the stones would look fantastic with it too. I'm also raving about pink mop in white gold for a holiday pendant

Help me choose! First time shopping Loewe…

Hi everyone! I’m interesting in buying my first Loewe puzzle bag and would like some input on the small vs mini size and people’s preferences on leathers.

I’m a mom who likes the option of wearing top handle or crossbody when needed and my everyday carry consists of two phones - an iPhone 16 and 12 mini, small wallet (LV Rosalie coin purse), hand sanitizer, lip balm, and a car key fob. On occasion it would be nice to fit a mini umbrella, a small pack of tissues, an extra lipgloss, and my earbuds (Powerbeats pro).

From videos online it looks like I could fit my everyday items in the mini but would like to hear if people find it hard to take items in and out with the narrow opening. The small size would definitely fit all my optional items but the difference between the mini seems so big I worry it will not look good as a crossbody bag. Perhaps it’s more of a top handle and a crossbody when needed type of style.

I am trying to understand the leather options, being a mom I want something that is fairly low maintenance and should withstand minor scratches and activities like getting rained on or not having to worry about spills like milk or spit up haha gross I know but it’s bound to happen. Any recommendation for a durable yet soft leather? I intend to use a bag insert so not too worried about losing the shape. Am confused between the classic, soft grained, smooth, and satin leathers.

I typically go for black colors to minimize staining but I really like The Sand color. I worry about spilling coffee or food when I’m out at restaurants so then I tend not to carry my light colored bags out. I guess I should either have a chair to place it on or carry a bag hook for these reasons.

Any advice is much appreciated! Hope everyone’s having a lovely weekend.

Want to cry. Purchased a bag from Bergdorf's.

Bought a Prada bag from BG, specifically because my credit card had bonus points with them. Took time off work to sign for the package.

Bag arrives smashed in their gift box, handles folded down. Not a luxurious experience, but I just want my bag.

I open and unwrap all tissue paper - the shoulder strap is missing. MISSING. Not coiled up inside; I triple checked. I have the same bag in grey, and know what to look for. The stupid luggage tag I could have done without BUT NOT THE SHOULDER STRAP.

Customer service says no exchanges, just drop a 4k bag in the mail and wait over a week for a refund, and I can repurchase. Never mind the credit card bonus is over, so that's lost regardless.

I'm so sad.

I know there's wars and illness and this is NOT a life and death situation, but I'm still so sad and disappointed. It was my Christmas present.

Las Vegas Cartier purchase

I was in Las Vegas last week and purchased a new Love Medium in PG. I did arrange with them before hand to have several items that I was interested in trying on. I debated between a regular sized Love in PG and the medium. I thought the medium looked different enough with my other pieces that it was a good fit.
I also tried on the new Clash mini earring. They are totally adorable but very small. I did't buy them.
The SA who helped me was fantastic. If you want her name message me.

Purchased my 2nd Alhambra bracelet today

I am so excited! After asking for opinions here, and contemplating between a few choices, I decided to go with the yellow gold guilloche bracelet, which I put on order today. I was deciding between the yg signature perlee bangle, the alhambra blue agate, and ofc the guilloche. I’ve been apprehensive due to the wait time, but I decided, it is the next piece that I really want to add to my collection. Does anyone else own the onyx and the guilloche bracelets? If so, do you like the way they look when worn together? Waiting for several months is going to be tortuous and I hope I made the right decision. For anyone reading this that has the all gold guilloche, how is it holding up for you? Particularly if you also have a stone one as well, how does it compare in terms of wear and tear? Anyway, I am so excited and I couldn’t wait to post about it. Everyone has always been so kind and offered great, fresh perspectives. I’ve never really had to wait for an item— not this long anyway, and the anticipation is already killing me! Ha! Thanks for reading!

Side conversation— I will more than likely, the majority of the time, wear them separately. With that considered, does anyone think the onyx and gold is too similar, like base colors, and maybe I *should* consider a more fun color pop of color?

Pls help me decide which to purchase next. JUC pave bracelet or JUC pave ring or VCA 10 motif onyx necklace.

Hi guys, I can’t decide what my next piece will be. I’m deciding between regular JUC with diamonds and the thin JUC ring with pave or the 10 motif onyx necklace. All are in my wishlist but I can’t decide which to purchase next. What do you guys think? Which one would make more sense to add into my collection now? Took a picture of the JUC bracelet with the ring but I don’t have a picture of the onyx necklace on me but it was also very pretty.

These are what I have in my collection (all in yellow gold:
Serpenti Pave bracelet
5 motif Onyx bracelet
Single motif onyx necklace
single motif guilloche necklace,
Single motif pave necklace
Sweet alhambra in MOP pendant
