Loewe Puzzle Bag anyone?

Really hate when high street tries to copy something so much rather than original ideas

I sometimes like their bags (colours, textures, etc) but they ruin it with the RI label

Here you go https://katemiddletonstyle.org/item/grace-han-small-love-letter-bag-black/

I was on that site yesterday because I really loved the black high neck knit dress she wore last week but ended up looking through all her previous outfits, she’s always so on point

Didn't buy but did love...was over 1k!

FML how expensive is Chanel these days?! Considering a pair of 2 tone ballet flats and you’re looking at around £800 which is RIDICULOUS!

Agree, I didn't want Hermes Orans but then @Scorpihoe got them..

Love this

I didn’t need a Celine basket bag (@ATV2021) or a Celine belt (@Lilly Lou) and I’m sure there have been others

Amongst random smaller purchases, I got myself this cuff bracelet. I absolutely love it as bangles were all too big for my wrist and this sits perfectly

I’m looking to get a new day to day bag now that I’m finally out of the baby bag stage. I need something biggish to throw kids crap in, smart enough for the office and not overly complicated. I’m drawing a blank and just thinking the LV Never Full ? Any other suggestions please

I love the Neverfull but I'd maybe go for something like the Longchamp Le Pliage, especially if you're planning on putting kids stuff in it. I try not to baby my bags, but I know I'd be gutted if I got any stains or major marks on the more expensive ones. Le Pliage has served me well over the years, I don't feel guilty about throwing it around and it is a really great price. If you do want to spend over £1k though, can't go wrong with the Neverfull.

(I'

Oh excellent! Love it when a plan comes together. It's a great coat - nice and light but it's lined and if you buy it a bit bigger (I'm between sizes and went for the larger size) you can layer jumpers under it. If you go for it, I hope you love it.

Love the enabling that goes on on this thread, it’s my guilty pleasure! Though I’m definitely poorer since I started following it

Has anyone found any good Black Friday deals?

I’ll be honest ai think they’ve been shit for years. I really don’t think any of them do “deals” anymore.

 

[Its_Me]

I really need some advice... I'm undecided between getting a LV speedy 25 or small Givenchy Antigona?

Which one do you think would be a good investment?

I don’t really know about Givenchy but Louis Vuitton prices are always increasing. I’ve had my speedy 30 about 12 years and it’s 3x what I paid now. Obviously I wouldn’t get that if I sold it on but I never would anyway it’s too sentimental being the first designer bag I ever bought. The Antigona is pretty classic though and has held its own for a good number of years now so maybe just go with which one you like most. Not always an easy decision I know ha.

cheetham hill do fakes that are cheap as hell. If it wasn’t so dodgy I’d be buying some and comparing them to the real ones I have.

I used to know someone who had a Cheetham Hill Burberry scarf and kept comparing it to my real one, it did my head in. It didn't look anything like the real one, not only the pattern but the material was atrocious.

 

[EasterEggs]

Mulberry have had a sneaky price increase - a regular Lily is £950 and a Bayswater is £1,195!

I haven’t bought anything for ages but I’m soooo tempted by this

Ow no Vivienne Westwood has died

Dug out my first ever Vivienne Westwood dress to wear tonight... lounging on the sofa with a large amount of sparkling wine. Love her and everything she did

 

[If you say so...]

Huge thanks @Its_Me yes I get anxiety doing ebay too! Some nutters on there for sure.

And thanks everyone, I have a load of boxes gathering dust that will be soon be turned to cold hard cash!

Please don’t sell boxes It helps sellers facilitate sales of fakes

I didn't want the YSL Envelope Clutch but there it is, sat in my basket, taunting me. And I KNOW I'm going to cave, it's just a matter of time

Does anyone have any opinions on the new shop in Blanchardstown Shopping Centre, Flannels ? I’ve never heard of them.

Honestly don't buy from flannels unless you absolutely have to because what u want is sold out, their customer service, returns is shite. Your better off shopping at Arnotts/ Brown Thomas or just using flannels for window shopping
