Got this amazing gift last week from Miu Miu and never got a change to post it. The box itself is actually pretty heavy and the top red part is made of metal,

So I am still wondering about the little tag (I swear I am not crazy just have some time on my hands lol).

I finally had the chance to look with my bigger loupe. There are more hallmarks on the side of the tag. Some are very faint but one is a little better to see. It is a tiny salamander/lizard and a star between a T and C.. I googled and Tiffany never used this stamp. On the other side it faintly says 750 in a box, which makes sense. Another one looks like a faint N with more letters I can not read.....so I am wondering if they had an old tag laying around and just buffed that stuff out. lol Not sure how I feel about that ?!

Any clues would be great. If not I will have to keep looking for an explanation. And yes, this was bought in an original Tiffany boutique in Germany for 1700 Euros.

I've had luck taking bags to my shoe repair shop at a local Canadian mall seven years ago.
If you can find recommendations in your area, it is worth talking to them and showing them your bag.
It won't be as expensive as the specialists that deal only with handbags.

I think the answer to this really depends on your lifestyle. There are some people (like myself) for whom a gold bag, even for an evening look, is completely out of place - and there are some people for whom a gold bag just makes perfect sense, stylistically. Are you the former or the latter?

I would wear the gold clutch with light, slightly distressed jeans, a white shirt, and the matching Bottega shoes, as well as to formal, dressy occasions. I think gold pops an outfit, but maybe outdated? Going to a Children’s Hospital fundraising gala and wearing Alice and Olivia off the shoulder long, ruby-colored dress. That’s what got me started! Probably should tone it down a bit. Thank you, I appreciate and value your opinion❤️

Hi! Can any kind souls here help to weigh their Chanel 25 Black calfskin Small and Medium in please? I scoured the whole internet and cant find any information. If it's too heavy, I can save a trip to the boutiques. Thank you so much!

I don’t have a scale, and mine is the caviar medium, but I would say it has weight to it. The leather and hardware are substantial (thank goodness!) which gives it some body. I wouldn’t call it light, but it’s also not bad.

How cool I didn't know they had such a program!

Yeah I was super happy with it.

I have both mini and small cf. While I do love my mini (light pink from last year) I love small cf more. Since my mini is light pink so they aren't so comparable but small cf is so versatile and classic. I'm petite so the chain length on mini kind of bothers me. Double chain is just so much easier to use. Lambskin looks more gorgeous though for size I prefer small cf.

ClassyPurseCollector · Feb 6, 2025

For anyone who has been following the Chanel 31 Mini Shopping Tote over the seasons, can anyone confirm whether it’s always been shiny lambskin leather? I’m also seeing aged calfskin, shiny calfskin, lambskin, etc? This season’s shiny lambskin seems puffier than previous seasons, but only comparing this based on pictures of preowned bags from previous seasons. Would love some insight into this!

Joeli7 · Feb 13, 2025

I've been eyeing these bags for years, someone here posted about them before the pandemic, but for whatever reason I haven't pulled the trigger. This one looks like the straps might be too thin... hope to see some reviews from TPFers!

Which blue color is more appealing to most people in birkin 35; azure blue, Zanzibar or Mykonos? Thank you for your input…

Market is fickle...curious why it matters to you which blue sells better. Care to share?

Curious to know how this turned out, @arayanna_a - did they take it back to finish the repair?

Sorry for the very late reply.

Unfortunately, they didn't want to take the pouch back in for repairs. Seems like the canvas had a very small tear where the leather tab is sewn and their excuse is that if they tried to repair then tear might be open up more. Honestly, I didn't even realize that there was a tear because it was so hard to look for it.

I told them that even if there's a tear, the pouch is still functional, and the unfinished repair with the inner lining wrecked and the zipper pull missing makes the pouch basically unusable. Furthermore, the lying about why they rejected my repair is totally unacceptable.

So they begrudgingly gave me a compromise of an exchange for another item which I haven't taken up yet. The worst part about this is that they didn't want to issue a note about the exchange and just told me to contact this particular SA if and when I wanted to exchange it.

But what frustrates me is that, I messaged this particular SA enquiring about the Cherry Blossom launch and if its possible to order the Neo Noe bag but it has been radio silence since my message and it has been over a month since I messaged him on WhatsApp. I don't mind an apologetic No but the not replying at all is just so unprofessional. I am in Singapore and my regular SA quit a few months after Pharrell's first collection and so far the SAs I end up meeting and msging have been not replied with any updates or progress on things that I want.

So I don't know what to do now, just exchange it for any item and let the ordeal pass and I can move on forever from LV or continue to hope to finally get a reliable SA. Not good or great, just reliable.

I vote for vintage pave pendant. You will have lots of opportunities to get your LO something. Get this for yourself!

I absolutely love that! It’s a time to think/care about myself too! ❤️❤️❤️

Hi Everyone!

I currently have a small WG Cartier Juste un Clou ring that I wear every day on my index finger. Absolutely love it! Am about to get a small WG Cartier love ring to go on my middle finger on the same hand and am wondering if I should also get a small VCA Perlee ring to stack on the same finger as the small Love ring.

Wondering if anyone has all 3 and is kind enough to show how they will look together? For an everyday wear look.

Index: JUC ring
Middle: Perlee + Love

The colour of gold doesn’t really matter as I’m just curious about the overall design look.

Would love to see a photo if anyone could help

TIA!

Trying to check if they still have this in stores! It's so pretty!

I’ve seen several at various stores in the white version.. saw the pink but it sold.

Cherries and wine · Feb 18, 2025

I have both and prefer the college. The college holds a little more and has an outside pocket for your phone. I agree with the others that the marmont looks dated. I don’t use mine as much anymore.

I LOVE the fringe necklace - it is so unique and imho just that perfect Goldilocks between statement and dainty.

However, if you’re not in love with it then wait until you find something that makes your heart go pitter-patter. The DBTY is classic but I personally could not buy one that is so marked up just because it’s Tiffany (I mean I do appreciate original design and love Elsa Peretti’s works but I just feel that with the DBTY it’s so basic and not impactful enough for the premium). Many jewellers online like James Allen, Blue Nile, Whiteflash etc or your local jeweller can create something exactly as you want it.

I’ve also heard people complain that the stones in bezels often flip…that would drive me nuts! Maybe one with dangling diamonds, like this Roberto Coin one?

This is a beautiful idea! Thank you :-)

I confess I'm really leaning toward the fringe. It really is special!

Thank you so much for your respond 😀

Gorgeous! By chance would you be able to do a modeling pic? Thank you!

harmini · Feb 5, 2025

I think it’s an inherent part of the design - meaning it’s going to happen, especially with the soft leather. The only thing I would suggest is to put your stuff in it and start using it. To be honest, I can’t really see a problem. It is a gorgeous bag!

Stacy31 · Jun 2, 2025

Hello! Does any have any intel on the new tote that is supposed to be released? It resembles the onthego, with a wicker front and ostrich on the sides. Colors are cognac and beige/wicker. I can't find it anywhere, but I've seen it as an upcoming release on YouTube. I even contacted LV customer service and they couldn't find it either. Price allegedly around $4700USD. TIA

I was cleaning my bags the other day and noticed corner wear on my black lambskin mini. Def wore the fastest of any of my bags and I'm super careful! My caviar woc shows zero corner wear and it's been worn a ton. So I would say it depends. At one time, this corner wear would have bothered me, but now I've learned to enjoy my bags as they are just things and not overthink it.

I love that attitude...I try to have the same. Control the things we can, but don't stress over what we can't!
