Designer Items, best and worst purchases?

My medallion tote arrived! I got a great deal but sadly the serial is gone and no card etc. One strap will need repairing so I’ve requested some quotes. I wish it were a little bigger but it’s simply lovely

@Scorpihoe I feel like I NEED to see your shoe/handbag collection

 

[judgejohndeed]

I'm so tempted by the iridescent white jumbo on Sellier bet it will be 4k again though

@Scorpihoe I feel like I NEED to see your shoe/handbag collection

Awww thank you!!

My shoe collection is more impressive than my handbag collection I’m very very picky with handbags and deliberate for a really long time before buying one, because I want to make sure it fits into my life, I’ll use it and love it forever! I’m more carefree with shoes because they go on the ground and will inevitably get worn after many uses haha

Over lockdown I started a little Instagram page (can’t give it out because it has my name in lol) where I photographed my shoes with flowers etc. Here are some of the pics!

Wow, your pictures are stunning

I like what you said about deliberating before buying, I do that too! Sometimes it takes me a year to decide if I want to purchase something The Sophia Webster’s are my fav

Thank you, the Sophia Webster’s look great but they’re a bit uncomfortable haha I’m currently deciding what bag to purchase for my birthday in 6 months

I’m being really tactical about it, my mum suggested I write down what I want to use the bag for (every day, occasions etc), how much stuff I want to carry it in, what bag is missing from my collection etc. After hours of searching I’ve narrowed it down to: Chanel woc, Chanel mini, mini lady Dior now I’m going to watch hundreds of YouTube unboxings/what’s in my bag lol

They all have their drawbacks though. The woc is super small and not really a “bag”, the minis are hard to find especially in gold hardware and I tried one on with silver hardware in London and it just didn’t look great And the lady Dior I feel is quite overpriced and looks more “occasion-y”...at least I have plenty of time to decide! Haha

Such a hard choice but the Chanel mini is Do you have pictures of the exact ones that you want? It’s your birthday though so duck it in terms of the price... that’s my advice

I love the spiky louboutins but I just can't handle the heels! I tried on my sister's pair and it was agony

Show us!! (if you want to) x

I'll take some photos when I have a chance to make them inconspicuous (I have distinctive things in my house etc)

They’re my favourite pair they can get very uncomfortable though after a few hours! Okay sure, can’t wait to see!

Thank you Yes! I look at them every week and change my mind it’s these four but the WOC in gold hardware not silver x

The Chanel mini would be my favourite! I think it would go with more or near enough every outfit whereas the Dior is quite a distinct colour that wouldn’t go with as many outfits! That’s just my opinion though, I think you should pick the one that brings you the most joy! Let us know what you decide

I can’t tell you guys how much I love this thread!!!! @Scorpihoe those pictures are stunning

It was my favourite too!! But when I went to London I tried on a square mini with silver hardware and it just...looked weird? Almost fake so I was put off then, but who knows? Maybe that was a dodgy one lol

Thank you!! I think the lady Dior is quite low on the list, simply because I can’t justify the cost, when it’s close to Chanel prices thank you though I’ll keep it a surprise up until I get it and post it here

It’s still for sale but almost £5k

i like them all! The WOC/mini are good for a night out if like me you only need your phone, keys and lippy, but the Diors are also beautiful

Cannot WAIT to go to Bicester Village for my birthday next month!!!

I love a Bicester visit! I’m 2 hours away so only get to go if I’m ‘passing’
Last year when we went we had to book a slot to get into some of the more popular shops like Gucci.
how was LP? They’ve popped up on my insta a few times, how does it work?X

My face when I saw the price

I've used LP a few times - one of the ladies there, Winnie, used to have Vintage Heirloom and I got my first ever LV from her. All items come with authenticity cards and a refund guarantee if needed. They mainly specialise in Hermes but have alot of chanel/prada/LV etc too. They're a tad dangerous haha

Yeah I went Bicester in October and was all virtual queues which was a pest and still the same now. Luckily I'm not too far from them (40 mins or so) and ill be going midweek so I'm hoping that it will be OK!

I hope you have a great time!! Let us know what it’s like and if they have anything good I haven’t been in a while now, I keep getting their emails saying they’re open

I got so much use out of my WOC this year because of not going anywhere it did me well for walks and the supermarket but I used it very rarely before that. It’s not tiny, but I would go for the mini if you like a bit of room x

*that’s out of the two Chanel’s. I would choose Dior over Chanel
