New Threads

Just one as of today. One or two max, with possible maintenance TBD ... Recommendations for BBL and Moxi are one per month 4 times, with maintenance TBD (subjective, everyones' results will be a little different from others).

For what it's worth, They all fairly complement you in terms of colours, I think the first is too low-contrast and some of them are a bit ditailed and fiddly in terms of design (for harmony's sake). I think On A Summer Day looks most in-keeping. You have a lovely complexion, also a med-strength contrast levels and strong features. Basically, from what I can see you are both balanced and/but strong(ly defined). The colours on On A Summer Day are balanced (neither too yellow or too blue) soft but defined by the design, the pale pink is balanced by the blue-smoke (no idea the official names) the all-over design and geometrics compliments your cheek bones and your lips, best with what I can also see in your wardrobe in these pics (naturally defined, luxe layers / contemporary wardrobe)

I went yesterday...she did the roots with the same pale red and added pieces of a brighter red....def not blonde now

My hubby is smitten with his new large Caramel. I loaned him my first release robot trick for it’s debut in Tokyo. 🤖⚡️

Good morning,
I am thinking about getting the JUC pendant necklace. I feel like I don’t see many people wearing this necklace but for those of you who have it- how do you like it? I have a love pendant necklace and 2 VCA pendants so I’m thinking about switching things up a bit. Pics are welcome too

I have a pavé JUC pendant necklace in yellow gold, and I really like it. The two-sided design is a nice feature, with one side pavé and the other plain. I initially thought I’d save the pavé side for going out, but I’ve ended up wearing it daily for months, pairing it with casual outfits and even to Pilates. When I want a change, I just flip it to the plain side.

Since getting the JUC necklace, I’ve barely worn my Alhambra necklace—maybe once or twice. I like how easy the JUC is to wear, but one thing I don’t love is the single-brand look. Since I already have several Cartier bracelets, I sometimes wonder if I should have chosen a necklace from a different brand to add more variety. That’s the only downside for me.

Yes, it’s beautiful… but it seems to me stores normally only have 1 of each model in stock? Do you know something about this? I’m afraid of not finding this model available in physical stores of Switzerland anymore…

You can only ask.

Please don't be embarrassed, the fault is with Hermes

That JUC choker is dreamy. There is a woman in my community who wears hers regularly. I just love it on her and just might own it myself one day Sell what you don’t use, there will be another happy customer ready to love it. I am always in favor of selling something that I no longer use nor love, especially to fund something else!! It’s a win win.

I agree! Great advice!
And the juc choker was like love at first sight.After a long,long time I’ve really wanted to buy something.
Manifesting that we both own it some day😀

Do you have a picture of the business flap?

This was introduced >10 years ago and at a very friendly price. There might be some pristine ones listed on the resale market. I favour this over Jumbo as it is casual and roomy (fits a Surface device)

TL;DR: For both of my bags, I knew exact specs in advance (purchased from the same SA), but how I came to know them were different from bag purchase to bag purchase. For more details, read on!

A little bit of background for context. My home store is a five-hour plane ride away. I purchase in store one to two times per year. I buy the occasional smaller ticket item between visits from other stores when on vacation, or online if I see something I have to have. My SA has ordered a handful of items for me, either by sourcing them from another boutique or by placing an online order at the end of my appointment. I generally don’t purchase from her between visits. I send her a list in advance of my appointments, noting that I understand stock may not be available and encouraging her to select other items she thinks I might like. She has said she likes my approach and has even helped me find a last-minute add to my shopping list at a different boutique in the same city, letting me know it was fine to just stop in and purchase the item from an SA at that boutique.

I am up front about bag requests. I do not seek the purchase limit year after year, but when I want a bag, I am serious about it. For the first bag, I asked in person during ann appointment. She took some specs and said she would get back to me; however, there were no bags for me that trip. This gave me time to do some extra research and what I really wanted was not what I asked for the first time around, so I consider the delay in my favor. I sent her a list in advance of my next visit and, at the end of that message, reminded her of my bag wish. I was specific about B30 Togo PHW and let her know that. I sent a list of colors I liked and said I wanted something “along those lines”. She let me know in advance a B30 Togo Etain PHW had come in and that I had been approved for it. Etain was on my list, so I was thrilled! That was 3.5 years ago.

This summer I was ready to add a second bag. I wanted a lighter color, but still preferred B30 Togo PHW, so sent her a list of colors to give her an idea of what I was looking for. She brought up my bag wish near the end of my appointment. She didn’t have anything that came close to what I requested, but shared with me what was available in a B30. Unfortunately no combo made my heart sing. She asked if I had considered a B35, B25, or even a K28, offering to let me try on sample bags so I could get a sense of proportion. We ran through several options and I found a combination I liked, even though half the specs were not what I originally asked for. The boutique was not allowing same-day purchases, so she said now we keep our fingers crossed and wait to see if the SM approves. B25 is popular and my spend is only OK (maybe an average of $5K per visit; I really don’t keep track), so I was nervous. She let me know I was approved and I loved it when I saw it, so took it home.

I ordered a candle and received a sample of Rose Roche. Didn’t try it yet but will surely let you know when I do!

The seller has a receipt but did she originally purchase it? Receipts can be faked.

I'd ask the seller to cover the cost of authentication. Or, at least contribute 50% towards it, especially considering it's her mistake that she didn't enrol in their programme before listing the bag.

The main thing, though, is that both the seller and eBay have confirmed you can return with no problem. eBay's buyer protection is really good.

Exactly! The receipt could be totally fake. I hate making people think I think they might be scamming me LOL. But its too much money to spend without actually knowing if its real or not.

Yes, thats true. It is the sellers mistake they didnt enroll in authentication program so by rights they should pay for authentication or some of it. I should have looked into it more though. I just asked if ebay would ****************** and seller said yes and I bought it. I wish I would have noticed the listing didnt say anything about that on it and then I could have told seller and they could have changed it before I bought it. Oh well lesson learned.

You’re welcome
Those were the days (I miss that generation of MJ )

Thanks for taking us down the MJ memory lane! I still have a few pieces from the "old MJ" collection.

I tried on the rockstud heels today and so badly wanted them to feel comfortable but my foot was wobbling. Then, I tried on the shorter VLOGO Signature Toe Pointed Pump in the smaller height.

Does anyone have this same issue with Valentino pumps that your foot wobbles? I have Sam Edelman pumps that are 4 inches and do not have this issue.

beautiful! So yellow diamond? The one I was looking at only had a .10 ct center stone.

Yes it is a yellow diamond. The yellow is a lot more intense and vibrant IRL.

Are both of her bracelets in sterling silver or gold? Wondering what the wear and tear is like on gold vs silver.

Click to expand...

Both silver.

I like wearing the small JUC with my watch. It’s super light so does t scratch anything. A few of us here wear them with our Rolexes

I love the juc earrings on you! I say wait and get it down the line after the pendant, since that’s a good price

If you can afford it, and you have the lifestyle to wear it often, then yes, it's for you.
I no longer have an evening nightlife, so I can only admire from afar!

RIP.. Dame Maggie Smith.. you were one of a kind, gracious, charming & enormous talent

This looks SO MUCH better than Chanels ngl

Personally I love the screw mechanism with quarter turn and the satisfying click sound. I appreciate how easy the bracelet is to remove. However, I do not love the hinge gap on the other side.. perhaps an unavoidable design element but not great in my opinion.

Considering the H Kelly and H birkin in gold are millions of dollars this is clearly not the most expensive.

The basic pieces

If you have a good relationship with your T&Co SA (explain to your SA exactly what you stated in your first post!) you can try asking for a “soft” necklace case. They fold over, and have clips to hold the necklace together. Similar to the VCA one I believe. When I purchased my 20” sprinkle/dbty necklace, it was placed in this instead of a jewelry box.
