"Every day necklace" (suitable for to wear in the office) - white gold/diamonds?

I’m on a similar search. I don’t have a Chaumet or Boucheron boutique near me, but I would love to be able to try on the Boucheron serpent boheme pendant XS motif in pave diamond, or the Pivoine pendant.

And for Chaumet, the Bee de Chaumet solitaire diamond pendant in a 0.30 carat size.

Sorry I can’t speak to personal experience with either, but love the look of all 3.

I own the Cartier D’Amour large diamond pendant (but in yellow gold) and do like it, but it is very very tiny. I also personally prefer the setting on the Tiffany Diamond by the Yard and would have gone with that one, but I have very sensitive skin and the back of the diamond pokes me on that piece. Many have no issue with it, though.

Good luck with your search and please update us if you decide on something!
I have the serpent boheme and the pivoine pendant and they are gorgeous! Go for it! The serpent boheme in XS is more on the dainty side though, it is does not have the same presence than the pivoine. The serpent boheme in S has a nice presence and is suited for everyday as well (it’s the size I own).

Neonoe dilemma… help 🙏🏼

With what you have described your daily essentials are, I suspect speedy b30 might be too big for your needs. If you are open to the idea of speedy, I would suggest for you to try speedy b25 - it’s a surprisingly roomy bag and will fit all your described essentials with a lot of room to spare. I am 5’4 as well (though sadly not a petit anymore) and I carry about the same amount of essentials in my bag - phone, mini pochette, toiletry 15 , sun glasses and a compact wallet and I find speedy b25 too roomy for my needs (I have both speedy b25 & 30 and I haven’t touched my speedy b30 in years). I am not sure if you are a “strictly canvas” lover, but if you are open to LV’s leather, I would suggest to look at NeoNoe in empriente. I have had mine (Noir) for about 5 yrs now and had no issues whatsoever. Good luck on your decision!

Buccellati bangle

My only concern with the Marci bangle is the underside. It looks like it will create some indentation if it sits higher up the arm. See the hallow area underneath?

The brush finish is a nice touch! Not a fan of the diamonds sticking out, but the diamonds do flash brighter and look bigger in pictures compared to Cartier’s love bangles with diamonds. It is pretty and unique / not trendy.

I found these pics on a reseller’s website.

I think the thin Marci you tried looks good with the rest of your bracelets and Cartier watch. It has a delicate look to it and the diamonds stand out more than in WG.

Saving Bags?

Paris has a lot more bags than other stores, so if you are asking for a relatively common spec (let's say noir togo GHW), it's likely it'll be in stock (particularly at FSH) and not so much need to hold. I had to have a bag replaced once, in a very often seen combination, and it took maybe a day.
great insights. Thanks! Mine was the smallest store of the 3 in Paris but I guess it is still having a good amount of bags - especially when I asked for classic neutral colors.

Help style brown romy flat ballerina

The shoes are fun.. I'd wear them with an ankle pant to show off the shoe. Cream works with
this color & a fun printed summer dress would also work. Jeans & shorts will work well as suggested by
your SA.
In the fall, I'd pair it with a chocolate trouser, just have fun trying different options & see what looks
good to your eye

They are beautiful and a perfect neutral shade. They will look great with summer dresses, jeans, smart trousers and smart/casual shorts. I wouldn’t worry too much about what colour you put with them. They should work with most ❤️
This is quite helpful. Thank you. I don’t have any shoe like this and wasn’t sure although I love them and they are comfortable. I have to step a little out of what I’m used to and just wear em.

Shopping in Europe

I don't shop Frivole, so I cannot advise re: stock levels.

However, if you're staying at nicer hotels, try sending an email to the concierge(s) with what you're looking for. They should be able to get the ball rolling with a local boutique (being able to pick up the phone and converse in the local language definitely helps), check stock levels, and schedule an appointment.

In my experience, this works virtually everywhere in Paris except Hermes (naturally).
