What kind of extension cords do LV owners use?

[jelly-baby]

I am getting nostalgic when I see this thread. Has it really been 6 years ?!?

I observed that nowadays they sell extension cords with extra accessory just to double up the price. I am not reallly ok with this. Who needs an extension cord with an extra extension ?!?

Totally. That additional gold carry handle is really not necessary with the cost of living these days

I'm going to boycott Gucci cords until they get in line with the Panetone colors for each year. Once they coordinate with Panetone colors, have a Double G at one end and a horse bit at the other, I'M IN!

Agreed! Extension cord designers should know these can double up as belts and bag straps! Sheesh ..

Off topic, please forgive.

At a Starbucks and look at this mess! No one is using an extension cord, but the complete lack of thought for design, placement, coordination, and general messiness of the situation is so upsetting.

And I am sitting right next to it all. What a rough way to start my morning.

Anyone around here ever hear of color coordination? Please!

Ugh! Sorry you were subjected to this visual nightmare! The Board of Directors of Starbucks should act on this immediately! And shareholders must hold them accountable! There's no excuse for lack of color coordination and design. For the cost of six caramel soy lattes and two fudge brownies they could retrofit thousands of Starbucks stores throughout North America. I hope they do, and do it quick! Until then, I suggest wearing extra dark sunglasses to lessen the horrific impact of clashing colors. Did someone say "fudge brownies" ?

I can't believe this nonsense!!

I was about to go into a Starbucks today, but after reading about the horror @MidlifeFashionPrincess went through, I couldn't do it. Until SB does something about design and color coordination, I'm getting my caffeine fix elsewhere. And taking my designer Extension Cords WITH me, thank you very much!

The last time I was at Starbucks using my MacAir, the plugs were the ones on the floor. My power cord just barely made my laptop sit on the desk. I had a large file to download, so I quickly finished my job and my drink and ran away! Hahaha.

It's imperative to have the right EC when downloading large files. You can't leave those jobs to chance or we'd might as well bring on the Apocalypse. And thanks to Starbucks you're playing with fire by simply hoping one's cords will work. I heard Louis Vuitton is in collaboration with Alexander McQueen and Hermes to create cords for this very task. They'll be monogrammed orange cords with skull prongs. But we got to keep this hush-hush for now so they can make sure the counterfeiters won't be flooding the market with fakes. There will be knock offs soon enough at Target. But you won't be able to use gift cards on them.

I can't wait for the release! Any intel on the release date?
Any info on the lengths of the ECs?

I want a Starbucks Pumpkin Spice version of this collab cord!

 

[rose60610]

Home Depot, Menard's, and other hardware stores will open at midnight for the worldwide launch of this long awaited collaboration cord. Don't tell anyone, but it will be retractable. This means it will conform to any length you need it for, (up to 30 feet) and it won't leave the slacked portion on the floor. Unless, of course, you want to show off (and who doesn't??) and coil the slacked part around your neck like a snood. A functional EC and clothing accessory all wrapped up into one. That's the power of collaboration! There will be holiday and seasonal versions including Pumpkin Spice, Peppermint, Orange Dreamsicle, and Mocha. As expected, the amount of vachetta and number of skulls will vary with the seasonal versions. For the die-hard traditionalists the cords will have vachetta trimmed with glossy box calf, and gold skull charms. This might be a little too flashy for some. There's nothing wrong with a run of the mill bright yellow EC, either. It still puts you "in the club" .
