I am looking to add versatility to my purse collection. Are these Liz Claiborne bags a bang for my buck or should I go for a better brand. They're currently on sale for $28 at a retailer. If anyone has a faux croc Liz Claiborne bag what is the quality like and the longevity of the material? Thank you.

I'm a navy gal, however, I do have a black birkin with PHW and an indigo kelly. Still, I would say to go with the navy. (You can always get black later.)

Just realized the glazing on my Neo noe canvas in noir is peeling all over! I have used it a bunch but I’m not rough with it. I have read old posts about this being a relatively common issue. My question is, should I try to start a repair online or take it into LV (Charlotte-south park)? It was purchased online in May 2020. Thank you!

I've had the same issue took it to the store they replaced the glazing few weeks later same issue I've gone back to the store today they gave me credit I got the neverfull mm empriente leather I wasn't going to chance another neonoe.

In the end, it's just something to help you locate your passport when it's in your bag. You're going to have to remove it, doesn't matter what cover you choose. Make yourself happy.

Hahaha I spend more time having to take it in and out than actually “using it”.

passes away
Tall, graceful & expressive she was beautiful on the stage. Glorious to watch
She was truly transcendent in the world of dancing & paved the way for many dancers.
May she RIP

Bals' studs are rounded, not pointy, at the end.

Lol. It just "struck" me just now what you mean by your concern on the studs being on the shoes! :giggle:

Do you think it’s a year round color? I have the Andiamo clutch but it’s in a darker color and would love to get it another color that can be worn year round

It was introduced as a Spring color but it is definitely year-round. I was also originally planning on Fondant but like KTag I saw the versatility of Pinecone over Fondant and was immediately sold once I saw it IRL. It was a little tricky discerning the true color online.

Hi all - any views on the the Cartier Losange Leather Shoulder Bag as an everyday carry for men?

Has anyone had experience with Cartier Leather Goods? Other bag under consideration is the Prada Brique Bag.

I appreciate and opinions/feedback.

Thanks!

I love Loewe but don't have a formal Loewe bag. I was offered a mini Flamenco in python and it would've been a beautiful more formal option!

That is exactly the case. Something sharp must have caught into the PVC. But it is not the end of the world; even the cotton canvas base is extremely strong on its own. I guess even if you'd max out its theoretical capacity (which you won't, no one does), it would still last for years and years.

thank you for this! makes me feel so much better about using her for work again…on rotation with the rest of my bags of course

Hi, just wondered as I was looking at the backs of the earrings- once soldered, do they fill the hole where the optional post can go? For example I see on my yg guilloche earrings there’s top and bottom position for the posts to be screwed in (2 holes) but the large yg frivole only has one…

I didn’t solder large frivole but my 3 motif magic earrings & YG guilloche : the second hole is still there they didn’t touch it / seal it.

I could use some advice on overcoming makeup perfectionism without spending too much money or time searching for the perfect products. I'm not into having a huge collection, but I end up with quite a few while trying to find what works for me. Sometimes I love a product initially, but then notice flaws after a few uses. I'm also mindful of my environmental and financial impact. I have some sensory issues with lipsticks and found some formulas I liked, but they sometimes end up flaky or the color seems off. Any tips for managing this?

Lipsticks can be challenging because in addition to being flaky & not long wearing, they can change
colors which is disappointing.
If there are flaws perhaps the application needs to be changed or the right brush..
Makeup today can be hit or miss, so guiding someone can be challenging & not really sure that
there is "product perfection"
Online buying doesn't appeal for the most part because color descriptions can be misleading
in store options seem to be a better choice if their is a particular brand that appeals
There are many who really do well with drugstore brands especially for lips, JMO

Yeah, I wouldn't recommend using setting spray around the eye area. And I agree with everyone else with the options of using eye shadow primers, layering and re-applying when necessary.

My daughter is 13 and we’re visiting the US in February. A visit (or many) to Sephora or Ulta is on our to do list. She really wants Sol de Janeiro mists and Rare beauty.

They definitely do! One time I was in the San Francisco store and I really wanted to purchase the jet black Boston 50. They kept telling me it was out of stock and they didn't have any in store. However, I saw an SA bring out that exact jet black Boston 50 for the people that were behind me in line who I'm assuming have a much better purchase history. I pointed it out to the SA I was working with since I told her before I even arrived to the store that the jet black was exactly what I wanted. She just said "oh sorry we try not to bring limited edition items in front of everyone else in the store since then everyone asks for it". I've only purchased wallets from Goyard before that but it was still kind of annoying to experience that but it is what it is. I ended up just getting the classic green in the end but yes they def do need a purchase history for those limited edition items clearly!

Thanks for your suggestion! I had thought about that too. The size is actually quite nice, but so unusual that it feels a bit wrong for me! I think I'll try a SO for the vintage size. If that doesn't work, I'll go for the cute size and save up for a 20 Motif

I think that is a great idea. SO and MTO are on hold for now, but it will give you some time to decide

A1aGypsy · Nov 11, 2024

I would encourage you to try both on. I a big lock bracelet fan but the Tiffany ring has to fit just right and DY’s quality isn’t getting great reviews right now.

And congratulations on your milestone!

Nail polish?

(I mean, with the caveat that it is likely not a good idea but, I’d probably be tempted)

I would be tempted to do exactly this lol. :hugs:

Are you happy w/the HP guilloche pendant? What do you think of it compared to the pave pendant? Is one more casual/every day than the other? Versatility?

I have the RG paved VA ring and wear it every day … it is really a very easy and versatile piece. So I would advise for the paved one if you have to choose one only. But I have both type (paved and guilloche) and if you think you would like both at the end with time then better buy the HP that will be more expensive and difficult to find than the paved that is usually available at the boutique. Keep in mind that guilloché can scratch if you stack or aren’t careful. More important for bracelet and rings than necklace and earrings though ! The HP can be engraved at the backside

I saw these in person once , the mini one looked very small and the shape makes me wonder if everything will just slide together in the bottom.

Since the sides are folded and stitched together inside , it also takes up room.

It's into November and I know Chanel beauty has released their holiday sets. I don't know if they've released boutique holiday packaging or if they've started gifting yet yet, but I wanted to start a thread for it

Please share your 2024 holiday gifts or packaging!

I don’t think I’ve seen this out there but I wanted to share this great hack. The bag strap for the men’s day bag is way too long for my frame and I wanted a way to also wear it shorter like the women’s day bag. You will need an adjustable slide buckle. Photos attached to illustrate the instructions.

Step 1: open one side of the strap and slide the buckle through to the middle of the strap. The top side of the buckle should be facing up and at the top side of the strap.

Step 2: Slide the detached strap through the O ring attached to the bag.

Step 3: Weave the detached strap through underneath the buckle. Do not pass the metal stud through the buckle.

Step 4: Secure the end piece together by pushing the stud through the last hole of the strap. Tada! Now you have created an adjustable strap

Thank you all for the support!
The LV store took the bag back and they will make a new one for me. I was not insisting on refund cause I really want this BB, and the store manager assured me that the craftsmen will produce the new bag for me much sooner then if I should decide later and buy a new one later. For this particular colour it’s 52 weeks waiting according to the manager. And in my case of so bad quality control, they would do their best to shorten the wait time.

I will definitely post the pics of the new bag here.

52 weeks? It's a bag, non a skyscraper!!😳
