Enjoy it! I have the regular rectangular WOC in this 19S iridescent pink and know how gorgeous it is in person.

Will definitely take more pics once I've actually broken them out (was waiting to spray them down with a shoe protectant since they're a lighter colour)! But as for comfort and fit on me they're true to size but lean toward a slightly more snug fit and are really comfortable. I could see them being uncomfortable on someone with a wider foot (my friend tried on a different pair of trainers and she said that she wouldn't be able to wear them for a long time).
I will say that as much as I love them, I don't feel like they're amazing quality compared to other designer trainers and are definitely going to be an occasional wear for me opposed to my Prada or Balenciaga trainers which feel more hard wearing (and tbh I'm known to beat my shoes to a pulp and am not precious with them). BUT then again with all that said when I got my first pair of Gucci Ace's I thought they felt a little cheapy but had a much longer life than I anticipated so maybe I'm not the best judge of character in this area haha. (noting that I took my normal size in the Chanel's as I did with the Gucci's and Balenciaga's but Prada's I sized down as they run a little large on me if this also helps!)
I was finally able to acquire this 24P black mini top handle (thanks to a good friend)! 
So chic! I just picked up a pair as well but haven’t worn them yet. Thinking about going to size down. I got my regular 36.5 and although I don’t slip out but have too much room in the front.
I bought 6.5 and go between a 6.5 and 7 in Chanel. I can’t wear their ballet flats because of the sizing. 6.5 tight, 7 my foot comes out. Love these!
Me tooooooo and my heart is so full! Where did you find yours? Isn’t the lambskin this season soooo nice 🥰I was finally able to acquire this 24P black mini top handle (thanks to a good friend)!

I bought this today as a celebration of finishing a course I have studied for years!! I have thought about VCA, Cartier and Chaumet as I felt they are more “proper” jewellery brands, but I really can’t help from falling in love with this bracelet

Thank you! I've been thinking about coming back to make a video once in a while, but just unsure.
I well intend to, once I complete the dispute with my credit card company and feel safe—I don’t wish this reseller to perpetuate this manner of fraud on anyone else. They should be named, shamed, and warned about. Their attitude when I first contacted them to note the condition of the item received being different to advertisements and claims was… not civil. That’s an understatement. Reseller, I have no intention of going after your husband (?? Non sequitur?! I wasn’t aware of their family, nor is it relevant, and I certainly wouldn’t involve them, ever. This isn’t personal. It is business) in a dispute regarding a transaction—a deliberately fraudulent and misrepresented bait & switch / con (though on advice I initially avoided inflammatory language, and remain cautious in my phrasing, I am privately in rage mode now—I do not want them to get away with this on anyone else. It’s the principle of the matter above all.)
And thank you, everyone, for being understanding, sympathetic, and kind— plus tolerating this downer of a series of posts, in a thread that’s usually reserved for sharing and spreading joy amongst a community which appreciates beautiful artefacts and craftsmanship.
But yes. I don’t wish this to happen to anyone else, ever. Once this case is safely closed, done and dusted, I’ll post the seller to protect anyone else from falling for the honeyed words and filtered photos/videos—I can’t be the first mark, although I was an unusually inquisitive one.
I’m going to cheer myself up by looking at & hearting your lot’s gorgeous acquisitions now. I really enjoy the posts which include a story behind them; they feel like a bonus treat.
like many of you, I love the IRL shopping / boutique experiences, viewing items (clothes, jewelry, furnishings, handbags, you name it) in person; there’s really nothing like it, is there? Finding something special which you’ll treasure for the memories, the company, to commemorate a life event and so forth… no matter how exxy or comparatively small, you’ll always have fond remembrances when donning or using your beloved item, & feeling like a catwalk superstar. (I thought this would be one such purchase, since I had an accident which made it awkward to hobble about shopping IRL until recently…lesson learnt :/)All’s well that ends well! And you got a nifty pair of trainers and a darling teal wallet out of your trip! (I love a colorful SLG; makes it easy to spot in one’s purse and sparks happiness when one opens it to fork out card or cash!) Love that the associates of Dior treated you as they should, NBD—your ostensible gaffe sounds perfectly charming and endearing! I giggled at your description of it as a ‘Carrie Bradshaw moment’.
Congratuwelldone! 🩷 You deserve a commemoration for your work, effort, cleverness, (& possibly sweat and tears) placed into your achievement. It’s a gorgeous coco crush model; I love the sprinkling of diamonds and the color! In times of doubt (which I hope are rare), you’ll always remember your achievement when you glance at that bracelet as proof of & pride in what you managed to accomplished! Yay, you!I bought this today as a celebration of finishing a course I have studied for years!! I have thought about VCA, Cartier and Chaumet as I felt they are more “proper” jewellery brands, but I really can’t help from falling in love with this bracelet
(I have a dear, brilliant friend who got a Maria Tash piercing after finishing her anaesthesiology qualifications. It sparked something of an addiction—& she looks absolutely rad with her ear jewelry. Unconventional? Maybe. But I’d put my life in her skilled and fashionable hands any day! I hope you have many more occasions to add to your stack—or jewelry or reminders of choice—in future. 🎉)
Ohh, luscious! That blue is radiant! And what a fantastic story filled with delightful memories (I especially like that you took her for a twirl to see the sights, architecture, IM Pei and the Louvre)—and a Valentine’s pressie to boot! The shade’s versatile and an eye-catcher for sure.View attachment 5952064View attachment 5952065View attachment 5952066View attachment 5952067A sapphire blue rectangular mini, bought in Paris for a Valentine’s weekend away

I am obsessed with the raffia bags from 24C!! I texted my SA immediately after they walked the runway....I can't believe I am still waiting for them to arrive after the collection launched in November! I know, I know - first world problems haha
