I hate that I wasn’t able to make it to launch today! Did anyone go? If so, what did you see? Does anyone have any pics of sunglasses?
I went, surprisingly no lines or crowded. They did not have what I want. So here are some pics but they got beautiful fall colors if anyone likes those earthy tones. Caramel, browns, olive green, yellow, orange. Oh there was this pink classic with shimmer so pretty in person, but due to yellow lighting inside the Botique I couldn’t capture its beauty that well.
RTW I found one jacket to my liking but they didn’t have my size. The beautiful black jacket was little heavy it has beads woven in. However it was 43% polyester and polyamide and viscose. I don’t think I would want to pay over 10k for a jacket made 94% synthetic material.
It used to be more fun to go these launches/trunk shows.

Thank you! Yes there’s one from 23A - do you mind sharing why you sold your 21A? I’m considering a pre loved chevron one from 20A and a new quilted from 23A but the new prices really give me pause…
I replaced it with 20A chevron (my HG)! Then I bought the 21B so black mini rectangular to “complete” my little collection but alas I much prefer the 2.55 to the classic CC turn lock. That’s why I added the 23A one back to my collection :smile:

Thanks! Yes I prefer the reissue to the classic CC turn lock too. I purchased a pre loved mini rectangular not long ago but the strap is just a little too long for me and I love the reissue strap’s ability to double up as a shoulder bag.

It is very difficult to capture the colors in this collection. Even in house lighting they don’t show as IRL. Thanks for posting @zaraha

What did you think about the white dress? I didn't see it in any of the looks but I'm not that eagle-eyed perhaps. Did anyone?

I don’t think it was a runway piece. I saw it on leurstyle on IG. Comes in black and yellow, too.

Is it just me or are the non-runway pieces often better? I got two dresses today, neither of which I knew about, but my SA picked for me. I’m in some sort of in-between level where she orders from the buy books for me, but I can’t pick my own stuff.
