Helloooo ladies!! I am back from a long vegas weekend and soooooo much has happened while I was gone on this thread. Just wanted to post a quick update. I carried my sequin bling, bling speedy and fuchsia Dior pouchette on my trip. I can successfully (but not happily) report that I did not buy anything on my trip. I should make clear that it was NOT due to my strong willpower but rather lack of time to shop. I wanted to window shop bags at Crystals and Ceasars but it was not meant to be. When that happens, my urge to shop becomes greater. Will have to try and be good, but no promises. Will try and do an update post soon.


Glad you had a great trip!!! I saw the weather was perfect this weekend there. Did you happen to see the lanterns from the iRise festival on Sunday evening there?

Hi Lou, I was not aware of the Rise Lantern festival and just googled that. That would have been super cool to see and to release a lantern. However, it sounds like the logistics were a nightmare. By the way, congrats on your STUNNING new Burberry. Burberry leather is really very, very nice. And it translated well in your new bag pics. Enjoy her!
 
I'm still waiting for the store to call me back about my tote. This is what the stitching looks like. From the front you can't tell I wonder if the threads are just to dry and weak.

Welcome back Amor!

I can definitely see the problem with the stitching you are showing us. I don't like that this is already happening on your tote in an area that will get normal stress from use. I hope they call you today dcooney, I think it may be time to call them again.

I have not used it yet and will not. Just frustrated as I got rid of most of my other totes and really could have used it this week.
 
MSD - if you were naughty please share! And yes brrr on Missouri, the weather there is only slightly warmer than Chicago

Lou I love the Burberry - it looks so soft and delicious!

Amor - YAY on getting to use your bling Speedy ❤️❤️❤️

DC - I hope you get your tote fixed/replaced. Maybe now is the time to be brave and use your Totally? :)
 
dc- Hope you get the tote problem resolved soon!

mimmy- Love the hillier! Looks AMAZING after 5 years!!!

lou- Gorgeous burberry!!! The leather looks fab! When's your b-day? Mine is next month too.

lvk8- You've done an amazing job living out of a suitcase! Hope the house hunting is going well!

jenny- Your pashli is beautiful, I love seeing pics of it!

amor- Vegas and blingy speedy... sounds like a match made in heaven!!!
 
My Coach FOS order came, but everything is going back! I'm glad that I placed the order, so I could see my fave style wallet in two different colors IRL. But I'm not in love with either color, so back they go.

I also submitted for quotes from Yoogi's and Fashionphile for 4 bags. Of course, they aren't as much as I would have liked them to be, so I am deciding what to do. I may contact AFF, but I don't know that it'll be much different there. Guess I should just suck it up... don't think it's worth the hassle and potential disaster of selling them myself. I haven't had any problems before, but paypal makes it way too easy for unscrupulous people to screw you over. Oy.

I kind of want to go to Vegas. I'll admit, I haven't gone since I was a kid. The idea of all those shops is kind of exciting. :D

That's such a disappointment! Hopefully they'll fix the problem!

Good luck!! I hope you get quick sales at least!
