Ok guys so the vintage Chanel bag I’ve been trying to hunt down is not actually vintage but I still can’t figure what the name is and what season it’s from I’ve only seen two girls own it and they don’t even know the proper name. Somebody please help me try to find it 😂


My sister is getting it for Uni. It’s seems like practical and durable bag. It’s also super cute!

I think this is the one? Everywhere seems to call it ‘chevron flap top handle’ but I don’t know if that’s official. The details on this listing say 2017-2018 production.

Gucci princetowns has anyone bought these to a cobbler to widen them or does the leather loosen with wear? I returned these for the Brixton because it felt like my heel was constantly hanging out of the heel when I tried to walk in them( I sized up and have wide feet) gutted because I really liked them! Are they comfortable to walk in?

Hello everyone, new here and I'd like to ask for your advice.

I have used two Longchamp Le Pliage bags before. (Yes yes, I know they are very last decade and no longer cool etc. but I still love the shape and the practicality of them.) I was considering a new one, as my current one has started to tear open from one of the bottom corners (it is very well loved). I also looked at the Ralph Lauren Keaton. They are very similar in shape and material and I thought maybe I could go for a different bag this time.

Has anyone used the RL Keaton before? Did you find the straps etc. durable enough? I take good care of my belongings but at the end of the day, it will become an everyday bag and I can't be too precious with it. The straps look a bit more delicate than Longchamp ones which is why I'm undecided. Thanks in advance x

I don’t own either of these bags. My advice is get something different. New bag New you :))

Has anyone used Flannels online before? What’s your opinion? I have a friends discount to use but I’ve never used it before. I’m worried I’m going to get scammed even though I’ve been in the shop and know it’s not fake 😅 I’ve seen some really good sale items but their pictures don’t look as good as they do on the designer websites. Help 😅

How much is the discount and what are you buying? What would put me off using them is the lack of after sales compared to buying from the brand.

Hii everyone need your help. I'm really interested in getting a new piece of jewellery (ring or necklace) and like the idea of the standard cartier love ring/ juste un clou but EVERYONE has one which puts me right off. Are there any other suggestions anyone has? Just a girl in my late twenties wanting to treat myself 🥲🥲

me sat here with my love and juste un clou rings on thinking I’m edgy 👁👄👁

just kidding 😂😂 they are so popular now!! Have you consider any of their other lines? Recently I’ve been loving the clash de Cartier range. Oh also, it’s very understated but the perlee rings from VCA are so dainty and pretty.

what’s your budget like? Dior have some beautiful fine jewellery necklaces. Also the Cartier love necklace is really stunning and not so basic! I also love the trinity collection if you’re one that likes mixing metals 🥰

Does anyone have the Chloe Lauren trainers and can vouch for how comfy (or not) they are? I like them a lot but have heard mixed reviews, some people with feet ripped to shreds, and others saying they could walk miles upon miles.
I get on fine with my Veja Campos, which I know some people find tricky…

Has anyone ordered from Luisaviaroma since Brexit? I'm not sure if there will be customs fees if I buy from them - they say there will be customs fees for countries outside the EU but don't know what they're likely to be and can't find a clear answer anywhere!

I really want a Celine Triomphe cap but they’re sold out in all colours online and in store. I’ve just found one on Vestiaire brand new in my size but its £470 which is over £100 more than the original price…I don’t know what to do!!!

Yes I saw the same hat the other day on HEWI. I think it was in black.
Will they release the caps again ?

No it’s not this one but it’s very similar. The one I want has gold top handle and the cc logo is bigger. The hardware is matte gold. Those two girls either don’t know the name or gatekeeping 😂

Love all of these! I think I read that Dior jewellery tarnishes really quickly, does anyone know if that’s right?

It isn’t real gold, just gold metal so I would think it might do? But I’ve never owned one so I’m not 100% sure 😭

You can also get inserts with a zip top which adds a bit of security, but I’ve only seen them on the LV Facebook groups as more bespoke ones so might be a little more money than the one above (but like £30/40).

Actually just googling I’d forgotten the bespoke ones you have all sorts of combos put in so like a drink bottle holder, keychain.
Try Handbag Angels and Papillonkia as a starting point.

I wouldn’t recommend papillonkia personally. But there’s always Mono liners and Samorga, which are the original.

Hi ladies! I'm making my first Celine purchase in the New Year and looking at the belt bag - this has been my dream bag for the last few years but I've kept putting off purchasing until now. I'm treating myself after a God awful year. I'm torn between the micro and mini so wondering if anyone has either and what are your pros/cons?
