New Threads

I love love love both designs so much and the SA told me that all the signature bracelets are OOS and would need a deposit + 7 months wait so I got the alhambra.

But not sure which bracelet I should get first for a first luxury bracelet?

Thanks for your help in my quest to make up my fickle mind

I feel the 5 motif is quintessential VCA piece so I would start with that! My first piece was the white mop 5 motif too so I may be a little biased.

Mine was like that. Even the handles left indentations on the bag when I saw it in store. But I stuffed it and overnight they were gone and haven’t come back even using two weeks. A few small lines but I think it’s normal— just the nature of lamb skin on a soft sided bag. Stuffed with a small pillow it’s perfect, so maybe an insert would minimize?

how is the wear on the bag now

I just caved on the saddle too but, in the grained leather new dark tan colour. Velvet depends on the weather in your area and pets... Velvet attracts a lot of dog/cat hairs, if your happy to get a lint brush out regularly OR have no pets then I say go for it!

Is the entire oblique pattern done with velvet, or just the stripe that has the CHRISTIAN DIOR?

I don’t want to hijack your thread but I just love this little bag so much and am so sad it is being discontinued. Wanted to show you mineView attachment 4858767

@krawford this made it into the Purseblog Roundup for October 3

The Chanel is a classic and the MPA is a trendy piece :/

Should I worry about this thread fraying on top of the shoulder straps?! I noticed it is double stitching and reinforced…

I'm sure I'll be posting many more pics of her in the future, but, her PF debut!:View attachment 4858388
She really does look so green in darker lighting... I'm still wrapping my brain around this color and how I'm going to style it. But I do know for sure, I LOVE HER!

It's beautiful! Would love to see some action shots with outfits!

Feeling Incognito walking down the Spanish Steps and chanelling Jackie O but more like Jackie Oink

Maybe I’m just don’t like cold so much, I’m using cashmere scarf. So depends on you capacity to stand the cold weather.

Yeah I agree, so many differences between same bags, one can have a scratch on hardware, another can have glue residue or a misalignment issue or leather that isn't as puffy...I can't believe all the defects I'm seeing on brand new bags.

How do you like the speedy? I love the print even though people think it looks crazy lol.

You know, if you like the idea of a toolbox, you could put a different strap on it to make it longer, or crossbody even. There are alot of non H strap options that look great from places like etsy. Just a thought..

Ah good call... the toolbox isn't a love affair for me but I always forget there are 3rd party straps out there. Do you have any faves?

Which did you keep? Is this the small? I’m thinking of buying one...

lisaphalange said:

I finally treated myself and bought the black puffer. Two actually, because I couldn’t decide on silver or gold hardware.

I know the difference is subtle, but would love your opinions on which you prefer. I can only keep one. Thanks for any advice!!!

Love that Bag will ship to London. Based in Canada, though.

Much appreciated! Thanks!

Aribb said:

No problem. I truly hope you get yours very soon. Mine are Vert Bosphore and Rose Extreme. I would love to get more natural colours, like gold, etain or etoupe but my SA said that’s most people want and I will have to wait for a very long time for those colours; therefore, I got those less popular colours which I happen to like and didn’t have in my collection.

Click to expand...

I bet the Vert Bosphore is gorgeous!! I tried a VB L26 and it was seriously gorgeous but functionally wasn’t there for me. I can’t imagine how cute it is in a mini! Congrats on your lovely hauls this year!

I may be late to this but both jucs look YG! Is the rg older than the YG and it faded?

Click to expand...

You are correct!

Anyone?

I have a love in rg with 10 diamonds on the same wrist as an ecrou in YG (And a VCA in YG). I have the JUC in WG with diamonds on the other wrist, paired with a tennis bracelet. I’ve thought about putting the WG on the same wrist as the rest, but that seems jarring to me for some reason.

Beautiful necklaces! I am having the same dilemma here. tbh, by looking at the photos, there is no major difference between the small and the large size. Actually I could hardly tell the difference between the two. Is there a major difference in real between the two sizes? (can't go in store and check due to lockdown)

Didn’t try necklaces, but noticed that the chain on Diamant Legers bracelets varies depending in the size of diamond. The bigger the diamond is, the thicker the chain is. To match the chain thickness of VCA bracelets, I opted out for a smaller diamond.

Modeling picture, please!!

Yes please! I'm really interested in adding this one to my collection but haven't seen it around much. I guess cuz it's a LE for fifth avenue?

Hope to read more reviews and comparison between Kate and Envelope

Can I wear the guilloche everyday? As in sleep and shower with it? I am planning to order the 2020 WG Guilloche holiday pendant.

Thanks in advance!

Thank you so much for your description! Very helpful!

I also wanted to correct myself - BV did so ‘seasonal’ colors... Anyway, glad I could help!

hello, I’m hoping to get an answer here as I can’t seem to find it anywhere else. I just purchased a vintage Cartier trinity, as I wanted without exterior engraving, however I just noticed the Cartier stamp is in the gold ring which seems off to me as my previous research has led me to conclude the engraving is an has always been inside the rose gold one ( as is the case for my trinity coed bracelet purchased from the store). Perhaps someone can help me if this is a clear indicator for it not being authentic ?
Would so greatly appreciate any help

I have it in rose with diamonds and love it!!

No worries if you can’t post an action shot but also wondering- do you like it for daily/casual wear? Is it heavy? I’d like this as an everyday necklace.
Thanks!!!!
