Just wondering does anyone have any Veja trainers? Keep looking at them and I like them even if they are quite simple. Are they comfy and worth the money?
I have 3 pairs and I’ll probably get another one soon. I love them! Stylish, so comfy and a great price.

Anyone have a Loewe bag? I’m loving everything wicker and knit and baskets lately. My reservation is safety, it seems most of them don’t close? Part of the look of the bag I suppose.

gonna delve into reviews on YouTube tomorrow morning but would love to know if anyone has one!!

I picked up a couple in tk maxx a few years ago and the quality is really great - thick and squishy.

I do. I've got a Loewe basket bag and I got an insert from etsy for it with a zipped top. I absolutely ADORE my bag and it had many beach trips in the summer

ETA this is my bag ❤ I have 0 regrets of her purchase lol

Just to go back to the Hunza G convo - I have big regret over buying one!

They say one size fits all - I’m a UK10/12 and 5ft9 and it is so short in the body that the scoop at the front comes down way too low and it squashes my (average size) boobs. Basically I look like a middle aged 1970s wrestler in it.

Also it has a load of snags on the bum where I dared sit on the edge of a swimming pool in it. I had such high hopes but never again!

Laughing at your wrestler description but oh how bloody annoying! Whack it on Vinted, it’ll sell on there no probs.

Does anyone have a YSL velvet bag? I’m looking at a second hand one but not sure on the wear and tear.

I wouldn’t recommend velvet. I don’t have one but velvet is not a durable material. Unlike leather which can wear in, imagine what velvet will look like after a couple if years of use.
Obviously if you can afford it and don’t really care then go for it but personally I never buy velvet because of issues with it

They're crap aswell. I googled. Literally a black shoe with a green tick....
Yeah they’re horrible, I was really disappointed. I am very girly and love girly touches to all of my stuff so I was hopeful for this. I think the iconic Tiffany colour is very hard to match with anything else. I would have preferred a white and silver shoe with tiny Tiffany blue touches.

Thanks, probably needed someone to tell me it was a bad idea! I definitely can’t afford for my bags not to last.

I'm considering this too... and also the McQueen trainers - anyone have any experience of either? Or as an alternative, I was thinking about some Louboutin trainers. I think I just want some fancy trainers really!

I'm feeling a wee jaunt to Bicester this week whilst I've got some time off work. Nothing in specific wanted....I just like a snoop lol

I wish they'd get a LV though (will never happen...) but a girl can dream 😆

This might be a situation more related to buying and selling but wanted to ask here because people seem very knowledgable! I recently sold a designer bag on eBay, it was rejected by the eBay authenticator. I’m outraged because I have the receipts from Selfridges and on a side note I have doubts about how reputable the authenticator eBay uses is. So the buyer wants to purchase outside of eBay, I think she really likes the bag. So my question is, do you know if there are risks to me as a seller if I have the money before posting the bag?
I know many people buy off Facebook groups, so I’m assuming this is how it works?!
