Personally, I'd avoid it. With the sheer amount of exposure they've had, they're on the way out.Hi allNeed your advice please
I’m thinking to buy the Jacquemus Le Grand Chiquito in the beige linen (exact in picture). Do you think this bag will go out of style/is it worth it?
Thanks so much to you both, love this thread for giving great practical advice!! It is a special purchase from me to me so something less branded will give me more wear in the long run! Thanks xxThis might be an unpopular opinion so apologies in advance, but if this is a special/rare purchase I’d say don’t get them. Purely because they’re just costume jewellery and won’t last forever, you’d get a lot more for your money eg not just something plated, and in a timeless/really special design rather than some CC earrings. Also would suspect you’d get more wear out of a less branded item too…?
Or even something vintage which would be cheaper than buying new/bespoke jewellery would be lovely!
ive seen a necklace I really like! Is this place legit? Have you bought from them before?
De beers do beautiful diamond studs
It looks the same as my watch - it's a 26mm Datejust in yellow gold and stainless steel, with a navy blue face and diamonds. I absolutely love it. I was worried it was a bit small when I first got it, but now I think it's a classic and I never take it off.
It was quite busy Monday so weekends would likely be busier - depends what time you get there but first or last thing is usually the better options
Good luck finding something special to you
with jewellery I’d avoid any brands tbh and go directly to independent jewellers to ask, it’ll be the best quality you can buy & you’ve got a contact to help with the item in the future (eg resizing, repairs). I think people would be surprised to know that having an item made to your spec isn’t ridiculously expensive, it’s insanely good value for the money imo!Designer jewellery wise.... I do love my Tiffany bracelets and Cartier ring (wanted a very special inheritance purchase!) I wear all of them everyday
Honestly I wouldn’t care. You know it’s the real deal and that’s all that matters.Guys, what would you do if your friend purchased a fake of a real designer item you owned?
And to expand on it, what would you do if they got compliments on it and people said “awwww you and scorpihoe have the same bag”
Nothing - what exactly could you without coming across as an awful person?Guys, what would you do if your friend purchased a fake of a real designer item you owned?

This would really really annoy me but as you did say it’s a friend I probably wouldn’t say anything. If she was going on about it and pretending it’s genuine I might be tempted to ask which store she got it from or something like that. But no if it’s a genuine friend I don’t think you can really say much without seeming a witch even though it would irritate me too. I would still use yours though as it’s genuine!
I wouldn’t tell her I know it’s fake. Think I would still wear the bag but not when seeing her.
Yeh I would just take pride in knowing mine is the real deal and avoid wearing it at the same time she is
I wouldn't say anything. It will make you come across as a bit snobby which I'm sure isn't your intention! Fakes are everywhere, just one of those things, they do annoy me too but at the end of the day, the quality is poor and I want my bag to last for years. With the cost of living going up, I think a lot of people are putting their money elsewhere or simply can't justify spending hundreds if not thousands on a bag.
Even if hers was real I probably would avoid wearing mine, mainly as I hate wearing the same as someone I’m with!
I wouldn’t care to be honest but I’d find it a little amusing of course. I’ve got the real thing and no fake could ever compare.Guys, what would you do if your friend purchased a fake of a real designer item you owned?
And to expand on it, what would you do if they got compliments on it and people said “awwww you and scorpihoe have the same bag”
I don’t think it would put me off but I wouldn’t wear mine when she’s wearing her fake cause I don’t want to deal with the comparisons. I wouldn’t say anything because its no of my business and I don’t want start drama.
