Dudes and their Diors

I got two small goodies! Will reveal them soon!

Here they are! I wanted the DiorQuake belt since seeing it on the runway but it was so over-sized that it would only work on women. Then they came out with the smaller size which was perfect for me.

This Saddle cardholder was an unexpected purchase (I went to Dior to get the DiorQuake belt). It is so cute and is nicer than the Galliano-era Saddle wallets because the grained calfskin is very sturdy, and the rounded portion of the flap actually goes a bit past the edge of the card holder so it makes the saddle shape a bit more dramatic. As if I needed another SLG, but I couldn't resist.

This cardholder was $510 (CDN). The belt was $880 (CDN), which is high for a belt that isn't reversible in my opinion.

Lovely cardholder! How are you liking it? Is the 'D' likely to cause scratches inside a leather bag?

I'm loving it! The D is "rounded" and not sharp in any way so it is unlikely to scratch a leather-lined bag.

How does it compare to the Chanel flap cardholder?

I have not examined the Chanel cardholder myself so I don't know how it compares (sorry). Hopefully my picture of the interior helps with any comparison.
