My late bday gift to myself! I finally got it! Without preordering (but it was hard)!

She’s so pretty! Omg! Congrats on your purchase and happy birthday!

I went to the store today in hope of ordering it, but my CA said she can’t even place an order for it anymore. I have to wait and see if there will be one available in the store later.

So this arrived yesterday evening...
This is the Rose Gold Mini Pochette Accessories (M80947).
My 1st Vernis Monogram piece since 2007's Amarante Sunset Blvd.

Initially I was sadly underwhelmed as it appeared very plasticky-looking and unlike the shimmery shine of my other Vernis items. So I told myself to wait and see if it appeared better in natural sunlight the next day . Glad I did. The sparkles are very subtle but the embossing is much deeper than my Sunset. I think the color is more shiny taupe/cafe (to me) than actual rose gold. I'm a sucker for all rose gold items :P.

They did enclose a small polishing cloth as is typical with Vernis items. :tup:

First pic is natural light. Second pic is direct sunlight, which is when you can actually see it's glittery shine. FYI the hardware is yellow gold and not rose gold.

Thank you for these gorgeous pictures!! What a stunner. I ordered this yesterday and to my surprise it has already shipped (thought I was going to have to wait a couple of weeks). My SA offered me either color and I wound up with rose gold, it is just so different and gorgeous and I think the color matches much better with the monogram canvas trim than the amarante does. I'm so excited to see it in person!!

This comparison is so useful to me! Thank you! I’ve been debating whether to get the Loop as the PA is proving impossible to get here in Japan.

These photos suggest it may be a suitable substitute:biggrin: so gorgeous!
Thanks! I'm happy that you found it useful.
I'm trying sooooo hard NOT to love this bag. But I do :love:
Congrats!
Thank you! The Loop really is gorgeous in person. :tup:
 
Hello. Has anyone ordering online started receiving the holiday packaging? I wanted to order a men’s fragrance but I would like the holiday packaging since it’s a Xmas present. TIA.
 
Technically my partner's purchase and on the last day of October but he only unboxed it today so it counts as a November purchase I guess? Heh. He had some store credit to use and I was the one that wanted to check out the Nigo collection in person, but turns out he was the one that bought something:

The Tokyo Besace - I like that the heart is a luggage tag and removable, which makes the bag less busy.

Magnetic closure but the leather is very very nice and supple.

Unlike the normal Besace messenger, the strap is held on the bag with two knotted ends, which I presume is the Tokyo/Nigo influence on the bag design.

Close up of the denim drip monogram and the luggage tag. The tag looks like it will scratch and wear quite easily...
Excellent purchase! How is your husband loving this one so far? It is still available for order, but I am curious how the knot will hold up over time with use.

He's been carrying it over the whole weekend! Seems to love it. The size is definitely great and can hold a day's out of stuff for sure. I also had concerns about the strap but it should hold up OK - the eyelets are reinforced with metal and if there's wear and tear the strap should be replaceable or repairable down the road. The heart tag has a predilection to turn inwards though - not really an annoyance but the front of the tag of course looks better and more coherent than the featureless back of the tag.

I think this is a great price point as well for a messenger from LV, my partner was eyeing the soft trunk wallet but at the same price this is definitely more worth it.
