My Dior mini bag family!

View attachment 4812087Hoping to add the D-Dior mini tote soon. Anyone tried on that bag? What are your thoughts?

Nice collection! Both bags you have are so cute.

I haven't seen this bag before in stores, and it looks interesting in photos. I think leather bags that are inspired by paper shopping bags are really fun, but I prefer the Balenciaga one because that one looks even more like a paper shopping bag, whereas the Dior one looks like a leather bag.

Honestly it looks a lot like balmain and Balenciaga bags that are on the market now. If you like it and it suits your needs just get it. It's a basic and practical tote bag that makes sure everyone knows it's by DIOR even if they never heard of the brand.

Edit: I think I must've posted at the same time as aj... I guess we basically agree. Sorryfor the double post!

Anyone with contact to the Waikiki boutique. I’m this close to pulling the trigger on that little Stussy tote.
Try calling the number listed on Google or the Dior website for that boutique, during a non-busy time like within the first hour of opening. They are more likely to pick up if there are not many customers to serve.

I was hoping to find one and have it shipped overseas. Seems our local store won’t be stocking on this style. ☹
Try giving them a call to see if they will even do that. They don't seem to even transfer products between the US and Canada, probably due to having to cross a border and dealing with customs.
 
I told my SA that I wanted this bag in grey, and he was actually able to offer one to me a few weeks later! I had a chance to buy a number of Air Dior items since the beginning of July, but aside from a T-shirt that I really liked that someone bought my size of while I was at the boutique (and the last size remaining was so large that they couldn't alter it enough without using the T-shirt as just fabric for a new T-shirt), nothing really stood out. My SA continued to offer me items as they came in periodically after the launch, but I declined them because I didn't like them, like the bandana scarf which I should have bought in retrospect. Seeing images of it on Instagram hanging from the side of shorts made me want to try out the style, after I declined the item:facepalm:.

I didn't like this Pouch with Strap initially either because I thought that it looked too plain, but after seeing it on Instagram, I started to really like it. My brother was also raving about a grey small Balenciaga pouch with strap that got me thinking that I would much rather have a Dior version. Besides, I wanted to get a Dior Pouch with Strap, and I think this is a great simple edition to get it in. So I told my SA that I wanted it, and here it is!

(The DiorAmour piece is a notebook that my SA gave me.)

Got to preview the winter collection today with @averagejoe and now both of us are probably adding some things to our wish lists.

Love this new bi-color bomber!

The zipper in the back is so cool too!

Also loving this new Saddle!

The buy for this collection was quite small, and the one thing I wanted (the ‘carpert’ oblique B23s!!) didn’t make it into production apparently.

We left empty handed but with our wish lists a little bit longer I think LOL.
 
I purchased the newsprint pouch with strap before the $200 USD price increase last month and the oblique explorer loafers about two weeks ago.

I’ve used the pouch about 5-7 times and already got the zipper tape dirty

I wore the loafers for the first time today and they’re super comfortable. I wish the enamel Stussy version wasn’t almost double the price of the oblique - they’re so good!

Very, very nice! I did notice the sharp price increase on the Pouch on Strap. The increase was $250 CAD for the basic models!

I will have to watch out for the zipper tape on my new Pouch on Strap, as it is very light-coloured like yours.
