Congratulations on your Diorissimo, it is gorgeous! I liked these bags, too and didn’t move fast enough when they were in the boutiques. Enjoy your new beauty, what a find!
Thank you! [emoji4] I didn't move fast enough, too, so it's also a great find for me. [emoji4] I'll have to skip browsing during my trip at the end of the month, but I think it's worth it. I'm not planing for anything anyway. [emoji4] Yay! [emoji16]
 
And now for pics of my new baby!

I. Adore. This. Little. Bag!

I love that she’s completely different from anything I own. She’s a great addition to my collection!

Mr. S wanted to brighten my spirits after the surgeries which were really weighing on me the past couple of days. I was beginning to hold a massive pity party which just isn’t me. :frown:

He said he bought this specific bag to help break me out of my “it must be perfectly practical but also emotionally soul stirring” craziness. He reminded me I don’t need to apply math and logic to every decision.

And... I’m just giddy!!!! It’s sooo cute, fun and feminine without being completely twee. It also practical as it has a removable shoulder strap and is teeny but holds a ton!!! :tup:

Once I’m ambulatory, Mr. S. is going to take me shopping to get some rose gold jewelry to coordinate. :loveeyes: And, as soon as I have normal post op feet, he’s getting me shoes. So yippee!! :happydance:

Thanks for letting me share and being excited with me! Ban Island is officially and happily left in the distance!

I kind of suspect it might be this bag coz your DH urged you about getting it before. [emoji16] I think he’s the keeper. [emoji4] Get well soon so you can further enjoy all the gift. [emoji4]

Oh it is? Maybe the leather is really thick?

It’s 2 leather fused into one. The tourillon on the outside and flat calf on the inside. But interestingly, once I load it up and put it on my shoulder with the long strap, it’s not as heavy as I think it’s going to be. It’s just right. I guess the weight distribution must be very good. I can’t wait to use it tomorrow. [emoji4]

I’m behind on this thread as usual, but so sorry to hear about all your surgery woes and really hoping it’s all behind you now :drinks:

The first time I went into an LV boutique was the fall of 2016. LV simply hadn't been on my radar before then. DH and I were in San Francisco, and my knee had a major fail right in the middle of our trip, so I was in a world of hurt. :annoyed: I was definitely NOT looking my best! No makeup, no energy to mess with my hair, and in yoga pants because my knee was swollen too badly to get my regular pants over it.

I hobbled into the boutique, and DH (who is super-protective of me) asked whether they could bring me a chair while I looked at bags. The SA immediately rushed to accommodate us! She brought EACH of us a chair, offered us coffee, and then started showing us the bags I was interested in. She let me take all the time I needed, and in the end I left with my adorable red Capucines BB. The experience cemented my relationship with both that particular SA and LV in general.

Absolutely love this! The colour, the silhouette, it’s just lovely.

To kick off the month and kill off this month's quota, I received a box today and inside is something I've been looking for for a long time.

I love this bag since it came out, never get a chance to try one until it's gone, but somehow think this can be the right size (which lucky me it is), and finally, after years, I finally found one in the color that I love and the exact size that I like, and in a price that's too good to miss.

So, my addition for this month, a medium size Diorissimo in raspberry. [emoji4]

(isn't it funny we just discussed that they often discontinued bags too fast and too many? [emoji16]) View attachment 4123340
Congratulations! Very pretty colour and practical style. I hope you get a lot of use (and happiness) out of it!

This is so awesome. I just love DH's attitude - you are so lucky to have such a tuned-in guy looking out for you. I'm sure it's because your partnership goes both ways. Congrats on bag, surgeries, DH, future rose gold jewelry, future shoes!!
