Just got my Comics eyeglasses case yesterday. I absolutely love it. It fits both pairs of my eyeglasses so I don't need to carry two different cases now. The colors are so much more vibrant than the pictures portray.

Alright, so haul for today!

First, i went to my fave consignment shop and browsed around, and got my eye on this mono/Noir Pallas MM. The price was good, condition very good, so I decided to take it - it has been on my wishlist! (Again, please Excuse all the cardboard boxes around, we are still renovating)

Then I had my appointment in LV and I was planning to buy some zippy, look at Cosmetic pouches and buy a reykjavik gradient scarf. And maybe just try on the Loop since it has Fascinated me a lot lately.
Well.. this is what I walked out with:

Nice Mini in Mono

And the Loop PM. What really made the difference was that it had the strap which allows me to Wear this crossbody, the longest option was long enough. And i’m soo excited.

Okay! This is my haul for today. Thoughts?
Also I think I might be off to ban island for a quick stay.. until my Alma BB arrives in a week or so!

I saw the Essentials scarf when I was in London and decided not to get it. Fast forward to January and I decide I do need the scarf! Unfortunately LV will not post to my location so I had the scarf shipped to my friend in the UK. she posted it straight on and it took 11 days to get to me as it went from depot to depot in the UK.
Finally she arrived yesterday and so much softer than what I remember and I am really pleased that I did get my scarf in the end

What an exciting day!!!
 
Had some fun at the Champs-Elysee store today and picked up a few things. I was there a bit unexpectedly last night and didn’t really feel ready to shop then, but before going to bed I did a bunch of research and decided I’d like a red kusama item.

I first asked to see the alma bb or the speedy 20. They didn’t have the alma in red and the speedy 20 was perfect for my needs. But then they brought out the YK Capucines!

Then I picked out a wallet for hubs - taiga amerigo (sorry, no pics ). Then I looked at their jewelry. Almost bought the volt ring w/ diamonds. Then I saw and tried on the Loop and it’s so cute, so I got that too!

It has been a very long time since I bought an LV in store (I’ve been slowly downsizing my collection) and I hadn’t been following LV’s collections, but I took a 2-hr window to ooh and aah and make some quick decisions before heading out of town. I’m here from San Francisco for work and realized last night the good pricing!! I’m so thankful to have had the time!

Congratulations! I love the Capucine on you! The color is so nice, isn‘t it?!

Thank you! My first time trying on the capucines and it’s a special one!

Thank you! It was such a nice surprise to be able to visit to shop! I hadn’t planned on it and I feel like I was out of practice, but it’s like riding a bike…

Also, I learned it’s only the 2nd largest LV shop, even though it’s the flagship. The largest is in Hong Kong.

Congratulations! I love the Capucine on you! The color is so nice, isn‘t it?!
Thank you! I agree - it’s a great color and I specially noted it because one option would’ve been to get a capucines in a solid color, thinking my first capucines should be a more classic one, AND the kusama speedy 20, but (1) it seemed excessive and (2) the red capucines is a different red than the kusama, and I preferred the brighter red w/ more orange undertones than the solid one. AND I like the contrast between the formal elegant shape of the capucines and the playfulness of the red infinity dots! ❤️
