Hey guys. I got this preloved twist your buttons WOC this month and I absolutely love it. Two issues: 1) I think it’s a bit long for me crossbody - thoughts? I have the chain clip but it’s not useable on the twist buttons chains obviously. 2) The backside has pretty noticeable color transfer. The front and the straps had some spots but they all came off with a simple wipe and now spotless, but the back color transfer/yellowing seem to be here to stay. Part of me says who cares it’s on the back and it’s normal wear, but part of me wonder if I should return and just buy a new caviar white WOC (if I can find one and be willing to spend a couple thousand more lol). Thoughts are welcome

The color transfer would bother me, even if it's on the backside.

I would steer away from white WOCs period and go for a splash of color. You cannot expect no color transfer on white bags, lambskin or caviar. Because WOCs are crossbody bags not handheld bags. The threading would also get dirty too down the road.

I'd return and go for a fun, rich seasonal color IN CAVIAR.

Picked up this cute bandeau yesterday! Fell in love with it before I heard the price which, at $350, is almost twice the price of an Hermes Twilly, or an LV bandeau. It’s wider and longer than a standard Twilly and comparable in length to, but not as wide as, the larger of the LV bandeaus (the squared-off ones), but not enough to justify being that much more expensive. Left behind a light gray WOC (looks to be the same one @trak168 posted up thread), but I couldn’t stomach the price (about $3,500), so left it behind. That was hard, but I just bought two LV Speedy 20 bags (more functional for my lifestyle anyway), so need to spend some quality time on Ban Island on my own accord before DH buys me a one-way ticket!

I have this one too! I love that it features a Jack Russell pup! (My favorite breed of dog and my favorite fashion house)

Twinsies! How do you plan to wear yours? I bought mine to tie on the handle of my black YSL Sac du Jour.

I still haven’t worn mine out of the house yet. It is currently wrapped around one of my sun hats, and here is a picture with wrapped around the handle of my cch. It wasn’t a precise job, I had just quickly wrapped it to see how it looked. I would do a neater job when I actually wear it out. 24F106E3-9784-4F90-A9EE-5403F3589279.jpeg
