That's a beautiful colour and that leather will be lovely and comfortable to wear. I have a white pair in a different, stiffer leather and I'm currently wearing them around the house with socks trying to break them in :rolleyes:
Get the hairdryer on them too! Can make them a bit more supple x

Any thoughts on a Loewe Basket vs a YSL Large Rive Gauche tote to use on holiday?
I prefer the look of the basket, but I’m slightly put off by how “open” it is. I also have a baby so need to carry quite a bit out with me.

I ordered the Loewe basket in a medium and a large and the large definitely felt too big and cumbersome even though I do need the room. I can’t decide! Any other suggestions?
The Rive Gauche is huge (and I’m a ‘capacious’ bag kind of a gal 😶) and I’d be put off by how easy it is to mark.
Have you had a look at the ysl straw and raffia bags? They have some which are more tote-esque which might solve your problem

I’ve seen AMothersEdit link to a leather Apple watch strap a few times - not sure where it’s from but it may be in her saved links and worth a look 🤷🏼‍♀️

I haven’t - good shout!
I’ll have a look on Seliier and HEWI too - thank you 🥰

On a similar note, does anyone have a Coach Tabby bag? Thoughts? I would never normally consider Coach as not really my style but the little Tabby bags are really cute.
I have a pillow tabby and love it.

Yes occasionally, bank hols and the like - they do a birthday 20% one but it’s hard to find something that’s excluded from their T&Cs.

It is really just back & forth from the carpark to the office. Going to check out Radley & Lululemon! Thank you all ☺

I have a great wee lunch bag so no spillages & think I’ll look into a backpack style when I find out the size so I’m not having a handbag as well!

Hello! I need some help. I am in a super frumpy rut and I don't know where to start. Basically I need a preferably cross body day bag - big enough for phone, keys, bits and pieces and I don't know where to start.
I own one handbag which isn't a changing bag - it's a Michael kors cross body camera bag in black with gold chain. Very simple and does me for most evening events.
But I'm sick of it. Sick of it being my only option!

You all seem to have a lot more knowledge then me - what would be a good option for a nice leather day bag, preferably tan or similar colour that's very wearable with lots of different outfits?
Plus on a budget 🤣 if any brands spring to mind can you help a girl out?? I just don't know what's fashionable any more
i have two coach shay crossbody bags in saddle (rich brown) and chalk (off white) and my mum has basically taken joint custody! looks like coach have stopped selling it on their site which is a shame as it's a perfect bag imo - fits in phone, portable charger, 500ml water, wide purse, extra tote and i could easily squeeze more in. it has a top handle which can sit on the shoulder and comes with a removable / adjustable long strap. the pebble leather is so soft and great quality, i did spray mine with liquiproof protector that was recommended here.

i got my brown one from fashionette and had a great experience, but it looks like they only have the taupe colour available now. maybe a coach outlet might have some?

linked my original post with some pics!

I ordered a Marc jacobs tote off tk maxx this week. Was hoping it was the medium one but it’s the large so thinking about returning it as wanted it for hand luggage on the plane plus far too big for everyday.
Ooooh I've not seen the large in person !! Is it miles bigger than the medium?

I think it just comes down to personal choice - I’m not a fan of logo belts, I think they easily stray into chav territory and they’re so easy copied but if you like then go for it.
Good point!! Thank you for the advice 💕

Hello all!

Does anyone have advice/ suggestions on designer sunglasses?

I’ve only ever spent max £20 and want a nice pair.

Thanks!

Which is exactly what my partner said 😅

But I’ve bit the bullet and bought the blue! I’m always sensible and buy black or dark brown in leather bags but I just thought “fuck it”
Yeah fuck it, I REALLY didn't want to discourage you- you'll be more careful with it! Things you have to take care of are so much better :)

wasn't expecting the goyard st louis to be reversible! love the bright colours too

looking at sunglasses and would love some opinions - never think any suit me bc i have quite a round face so don't have a go to shape.
torn between:

longchamp (thin gold frame, square)
isabel marant (tort frame, bigger and slightly squarer than classic wayfarer)
