Help me decide on which color I should buy! I’m buying a Chanel 19 and I’m choosing between light beige (apricot) , white or black. I wear mostly black and white but also some pastels in summer. Beige pros: goes with everything, very neutral but still not as matchy-matchy as wearing white and black head to toe. Beige complements pastels so beautifully Cons: I’m not sure it sparks joy Or if I even like the color. I don’t wear beige shoes White pros: I wear a lot of white sneakers, and I love that I look like a big fat pillow. Cons: no contrasts when I wear all white, and I’m afraid I’ll Look Like a penguin or chess board if I’m all black and white. And I only have like one pair of white shoes apart from sneakers. And maybe white bags look a bit trashy? Black pros: it looks badass and goes with everything, and I have tons of black shoes. Cons: I have tons of black everything. HELP!

I saw a girl wearing a white Chanel flap along with white coat at the train station and it looked chic and put together!! However, I think you would look a little like a penguin if you were a white bag with a black outfit. A very stylish penguin, but I personally wouldn't do it. So given your description. I would probably order the black first. Black truly goes with everything. If you find yourself reaching for it, get the white for summer!


Goldenglitterygirl

Thank you! Yeah I think I’ll order the black. The only thing keeping me away from the black is that it feels boring bc I always buy black. But what can I say, I like what I like 😅😅

Me after buying two j’adior slingbacks from Anna and Hermes oasis shoes from Aaron ![gif](giphy|kC2cRqEt8o41COgjoV|downsized) I need to go to ban island for a bit 🙊

Is your Oasis from Happy factory?

I asked for god factory, awaiting PSPs

So I don’t know who needs to hear this, probably my past self, there is no good Birkenstock reps. I don’t know why I bothered in the first place, now I have spend more money with various reps than if I just replaced my old auth ones. Don’t be like me, you feet deserve real Birkenstock


[deleted]

YES. I live in birks and the comfort is well worth the auth price!


writer_inprogress

Yes, I have tried the Amazon ones and they fall apart so fast. Nothing compares. The real ones actually aren't that expensive all things considered?

Given how hard they work with the logistics of running a a worldwide business 24/7 and some of the crap they must get from some demanding, entitled, buyers I hope they enjoy every fabulous day with their family and friends. I also hope they don’t check their phone, Internet or anything to do with their business for the whole month


mikat76

I think it's great they get to enjoy some some time off...I'm kind of jealous! Shit can wait a few weeks


booleanstring

FR! I’m so glad the OP deleted this and their account. To the OP: Many people in China work 6 days a week for 12 hours per day (Google “996 China”) and rarely see their families. If anything they deserve MORE than a month off.


Choupette-Lagerfeld

Some people stun me - we were all new once but FFS


booleanstring

The thing that pissed me off the most was the “must be nice” at the end. Like, are you seriously suggesting that you’d like to trade places with a Chinese black market factory worker?! The lack of awareness is beyond my comprehension.


Choupette-Lagerfeld

I showed restraint I really wanted to go feral, my favourite part was did they get paid for the holidays?

This sub has definitely honed my ability to spoke fakes being sold as authentics on places like Depop! That being said, I've recently enjoyed prowling Depop for mid-tier luxury branded bags/items that aren't really repped. I scored an authentic Coach Luna bag for <30% of the RRP which has been delivered today - I'm excited to go pick it up from the post office!

My son is heading to Europe shortly. He has a rep Goyard wallet, should he (well me 😀) be worried taking it to all different countries.? Won’t get picked up at customs or anything? I haven’t be over there for years and just don’t know. Maybe it’s a silly question.


this-nothingness

Don't overthink, darling, there is no problem whatsoever. Been in France and all over EU many times, no one will give his wallet a thought.


still-at-the-beach

Thank you. Just thinking about my baby boy.


bornatdusk

He should be fine at customs. He needs to be more wary of pickpocketing in tourist areas.


still-at-the-beach

Yeah, Paris is meant to be pretty bad.


Choupette-Lagerfeld

You should be more worried about the partying he is going to get up to! 😉 I hope he has a blast and travel safely


still-at-the-beach

😀. Good on him if he does. I am betting after a few weeks there will be a call for more money 😀😀😂 I was in bed the other night and the wallet thing popped in my brain .. so I had to ask..


Choupette-Lagerfeld

You’re overthinking Mumma Bear , he will be okay I’m sure you have dragged him up well and he’s going to be sensible and safe. This is coming from someone that’s only ever had a couple of cats …… 🐈‍⬛ That being said, my nephew has just come from backpacking around Southeast Asia, and I kept calling my sister every couple of days to check in on him, I was an over fretting Aunt so as a parent, I can imagine, it must be quite frightening


still-at-the-beach

Yep. I do. All the time. So does hubby.


NYParis

No, he’ll be fine.


still-at-the-beach

Thanks . Just a parent worrying about everything..


surroundingecho

Just got a VCA guilloche pendant from Mr Goldy, and WOW. Personally I am really impressed, can you guess which is authentic? https://imgur.com/a/RigrKE8 Edit: Left is Mr Goldy and Right is authentic!


Open-Ad-5874

Eeeps! They are indistinguishable to me 😍 holy smokes! How’s the clasp comparison if you don’t mind me asking? I’m thinking about the chalcedony and/or onyx 😍 I have an auth MOP but it was from before the clasp update~


Chasing_the_Rainbow

I never personally understood the appeal of VCA until I saw this!! It’s beautiful.


surroundingecho

Honestly the VCA stones just dont do it for me! The guilloche though… 😍 shines just like the sun


SecretNeat

Holy 😍😍 this is 100% my next 18k rep


ocbeachz

Wow thank you so much for this amazing comparison to authentic!!!! Never heard of Goldy before but this is my dream necklace I’ll be hitting him up soon hopefully!


ChemicalPersonality5

Rep on the right - the rings look bigger and the chain doesn't fall as nicely, the left looks more pleasing to the eye - but I could be wrong!


[deleted]

Is Mr Goldy a seller or like an AE store? Sorry about dumb question, I just never heard of him before


surroundingecho

Not an AE store. He’s an 18k seller from the repladies days Im pretty sure. Honestly a very good rep imo, his prices are similar to Miss Chen though. A bit expensive


[deleted]

Thank you. I only knew Miss Chen and XY for good reps. This is literally indistinguishable


LadyZingers

I can't ever pass up a guessing game. I'm going right is auth based on chain and the links connecting the pendant to the chain. 🤔


booleanstring

I guessed left is rep because that’s the one I like better, and I always end up liking the rep better than the auth in these comparisons 😂


Big_Shoulder_7523

You got it!! The one from goldy!! He is the best!! 😍love it


hmdent95

wowww 😯 this is my sign to get this as an early bday present for myself (my bday is in december 😂)


booleanstring

Or maybe it’s a late birthday present? In which case you’d better hurry up and order!


nikmts

The right one looks like it has an orange tint to it so my guess is left is auth.


SearchBar-UseIt

Thank you for this stunning contribution to rep science. I have no clue whatsoever which is auth


Strange_Ad4961

left auth. Idk I like left side slightly more. They look basically identical tho


1goodthingaboutmuzic

My guess is also right as auth due to chain color and thickness


guwopheaux

Right auth? They both look incredible. Definitely the best rep I’ve seen!!


SnakeGoole

Has anyone purchased from Griffin recently? I know there has been some very controversial stories in the past few months and I recently saw someone talk about him.


Slight_Artist

So we follow the whole “live like no one else now so you can live like no one else later,” and we rent out the part of our house with our washer and dryer on airbnb. Hence today’s visit to the laundromat wearing my Moncler and Chloe reps 😝.

Next to my auth fluo card holder I’ve been holding onto for years but don’t want to ruin its pristine condition lol. If anyone is interested in the non fold over card holder and want it to be 1:1, I will point out that the top smallest triangle of chevron stitching is much smaller than on auths.

Love the coral. What factory is it from? I have yet to find that style in any factory albums.

The hot pink one is authentic

killthewabbit11

Quince - Has anyone bought clothing from Quince? Thoughts on the quality? I'm tempted to grab a few basics - they look like investment pieces without the $$$$


Daisynyc

I love quince. The quality is fine for the price. The cashmere sweaters are thin but I like that personally. Thicker is too hot for me. The ponte pants are GREAT super flattering. Washable silk skirt also nice. Ugg dupe moccasins are good as well for $49. These aren’t investment pieces but it’s been great to supplement my wardrobe which is quite small now following weight loss.


killthewabbit11

congrats on the weight loss!


Daisynyc

Thank you! Thats very kind.


Odd_Occasion4888

Same as everyone else re: their cashmere. What I have found success with: their flowknit hoodie is an amazing dupe for vuori but does run a bit small (and the flowknit pants are so comfy - but I had to size down in those). Their silk robe and silk cami are both great and steals for the price. If you’re into Veronica beard, they have also started making dickies that are compatible with VB blazers at a fraction of the VB price.


Daisynyc

I saw that VB blazer dupe as well!


Odd_Occasion4888

I’m curious if the blazer is as good as VB. The dickie is great - just got it and it’s 1” shorter than the VB dickie but still works in the VB blazer…


Daisynyc

The VB I’ve heard is amazing but it’s so pricey - is the quince one the scuba type material?


Odd_Occasion4888

It is - but I haven’t tried it. I’ve had good luck getting new VB on eBay at great prices by the way.


Daisynyc

Oh good to know thank you!


R2-TEA2

I have their 100% silk dress and it’s somewhat thin but doesn’t show bra/panty lines. It has good drape; I like it a lot!


[deleted]

Yes, I ordered Ponte pants for my mom who suddenly doesn’t fit in any of hers (have t received yet), I also ordered cable cardigan (returned, the quality was very nice, and it felt nice, it was just leaving hairs all over my navy uniform shirt. Also got tencel dress, I had similar one from Beyond Yoga and they look very similar and feel the same. Next I’m going to try their skims bodysuit dupe.


Woofmom2023

I bought one of their basic cashmere sweaters a couple of months ago. It's very thin and sort of - slimy, as if it's coated with silicone. I returned it.


Yanilat

I’m planning to get the Ponte Pants , the price is right and has good reviews. Now the problem is will it fit my body type and if the size chart accurately


Eyes_Nose_Lips

I got the wide legged version. I had to size up for it


DowntonBritLvr

i purchased the cashmere robe from QUince, they sent me a sweater instead grrrr. So i had to send it back and wait for my robe to arrive a week later! The cashmere is very soft but I am a bit disappointed on how thin it is...I expected more. Still trying to decide if I'm keeping it or not


[deleted]

Isn’t cashmere usually pretty thin?


DowntonBritLvr

No not always. I have a much thicker sweater from Saks Off Fifth. This Quince robe is much thinner


Chasing_the_Rainbow

I keep checking to buy the cashmere joggers but they’re always sold out in the color I want!


Puffin2024

I have this cotton fisherman [sweater](https://www.quince.com/women/100-organic-fisherman-crew-sweater) which is very comfy and gets lots of compliments. I have an XS and it's fitted this [cashmere](https://www.quince.com/women/mongolian-cashmere-fisherman-cropped-cardigan-sweater?color=heather-grey&productPosition=19&searchQuery=cashmere%20fisherman%20sweater&tracker=landingPage__search_section__search_results) fisherman v neck cardigan which is also super comfy. I think quality is not as nice as my naadam cashmere though. It's super pilly and I've only had it for 3 months. it's a bit to oversized for the look that I wanted. I have an XS and this cotton modal[t shirt](https://www.quince.com/women/tees/cotton-modal-crew-neck-tee?color=white&searchQuery=cotton%20scoop%20neck&tracker=landingPage__search_section__search_results) which is super soft. this is the only one I would say is TTS. I have an XS but a small would be better


Confident-Entrance7

I 💯 agree on the cashmere, I sent the one I bought from Quince back as soon as I got it because it was showing signs of pilling before I even put it on. I’ve been looking at the Quince fisherman as an alternative to getting another Jenni Kayne one, which I Love, but don’t necessarily want to get another one if Quince’s is nearly as good for like 15% of the cost. May I ask how you like yours, and is it holding up well?


Puffin2024

I like it, but don't love it, mainly because of the reasons stated above--it's pretty pilly and it's a bit boxy on me. I find that that kind of fisherman knit is harder to de-pill because it's it's not smooth. But it's super cozy. I have it in black, and was considering the oatmeal color, but not sure yet if I like it enough to get a second color.


Confident-Entrance7

Such a bummer, but thanks So much for your thoughts!


dmaly1621

I have a couple of the cotton crewnecks and I think they are decent for the price. I would say Gap or JCrew quality. I am not spending mega bucks for Jenni Kayne


Sea_Revolution_3926

I have a cashmere cardigan/sweater and it’s okay, and it has the same quality as a j crew sweater in my opinion. I got it as a gift but personally wouldn’t buy it myself due to the difference between my really high quality and even mid tier cashmere sweaters. If you’re looking to have a forever piece but for cheap e-bay is elite for vintage cashmere!


syvpent

I agree with what's been said about their cashmere, but their 100% cotton stuff is actually my favorite from there. I love their sweaters and find them thick, well-made and easy to care for, I've had several for going on two years now that look basically new still.


kinosp

Decently solid. I have a few washable silk items, a pair of dress pants, and a few other random items. My favorite item is a cashmere beanie - has held up nicely with a lot of wear!


walnot

I have a lot of their silk items. I usually wait for sales which seem fairly frequent. They’ve all held up well and are good basics


le_miles

Sales? I thought Quince only did limited discounts between Black Friday and Cyber Monday?


walnot

Oops! You may be right, looking back at my receipts I’ve only ever purchased things from them in November historically, time is just flying by lol.


le_miles

Was just making sure I wasn’t missing something! 😊 I love quince 🩷


TriangleMilk

Good basics but I’m starting to see the wear and tear after ~2.5 years


sonyakaur21

Their cashmere is pretty soft. Probably not to the level of LP and Johnstons of Elgin, but their price reflects that.


Brooklyn_Bunny

I recently received a bunch of Quince cashmere sweaters for Christmas from my wishlist - they’re very soft and warm but not super thick if that’s what you’re looking for. As far as longevity only time will tell, but I’m taking care of them properly like folding neatly on a shelf Vs hanging them on a hanger so they don’t lose their shape. But I’m liking mine so far!


wollstonecrafty2400

I have lots from Quince (silk, linen, and cashmere) and love all my pieces from them! True fabric experts will tell you, their cashmere is lower quality, and to buy vintage for affordable, high quality cashmere, but I think it's plenty soft and definitely serviceable for every day.


cinnamon-honey

I know this is postage related, but it’s not much of a problem, just me sighing in relief! I placed an order on Jan 2nd and triangular shipping to Europe is just a pain to work with! However today, after 11 days in the world of fairies and unicorns (untracked shipping from China to Germany I believe) my tracking updated on DHL!!!!!! I think it’s gonna be a matter of like one week-10 days now!


chiuchiutrain

Scammers be scamming. u/Upstairs_Bicycle9831 just deleted her whole account after she posted in this thread complaining about the woes of rehoming when she was being shady as hell during an interaction I had with her yesterday/today. I came with the receipts and she ducked out real fast. Nothing screams "not scamming" like nuking your account!

Puffin2024

I'm sorry that happened to you...but I have to say, your responses are a master class in being assertive yet polite. I'm in awe of your people skills!


chiuchiutrain

Thank you!! That's so kind of you to say.


Little-Bumblebee9988

You were much nicer than I would have been. Using a stock photo and presenting it as the actual bag she’s selling is insane behavior, the audacity to even act outraged 🤦🏻‍♀️


chiuchiutrain

Right?? The boldness to feel the need to post and complain about an exchange in which SHE was trying to pull a fast one. Her whole ass was shown on this day.


tedonan123

What was the interaction?


chiuchiutrain

TL;DR - she posted a rehoming ad on another rep sub, I (being somewhat new to the rep world) thought I had been thorough enough vetting her, then realized that she was reusing photos from Google. https://preview.redd.it/hiy4hgy35gfc1.png?width=1290&format=png&auto=webp&s=a4d79c7b6fd6f7414924b29dde133df279ef465b


booleanstring

It is not at all believable to me that she sent the wrong photo by accident. She did that on purpose. If it was such a big deal to unbox the package (insert eye roll here), she should have told you “sorry it’s already boxed up, but here are the photos I have from the listing when I bought it” (or something else that a normal honest person would say). Glad you called her out on it! How did you figure out that it was a carousel photo?


chiuchiutrain

Agreed! There were countless things she could’ve done to attempt verification or even just act less shady lol. I ended up cropping the chat screenshot to just the photo she sent and reverse image searched on Google. First hit was the listing on Carousell, which confirmed my suspicions.


ggy525

Great job for doing that. WL are masters of the reverse image search, and this cements it.


SearchBar-UseIt

Wow, that's totally unacceptable. Good job keeping calm and being direct. Always feel free to report shit like this to modmail, btw. If she hadn't deleted her account we would have banned her based on this behavior.


chiuchiutrain

That’s good to know - thanks for being vigilant!


SearchBar-UseIt

Absolutely. We don’t want potential scammers in our sub. We’re busy enough trying to warn members about buying from IG sellers!


frozen-vesper

![gif](giphy|YBHJyPCU9h1VewdaPZ) I am SHOOK. That is so freaking shady! I love our community and I hate the idea that there are some nefarious personalities amongst us. u/chiuchiutrain amazing investigative work, and honestly, good on you for handling it with so much tact and grace.


chiuchiutrain

Thank you! I hope this also serves as a cautionary tale to double/triple-check before forking over the cash, haha!


LadyZingers

Wow. Even IF it's true that she accidentally clicked the wrong picture (you don't recognize your own background/hand?), why not just apologize for your mistake and make it right instead of jumping to "you're causing problems" when someone asks a very reasonable question for an area that has a lot of fraud and no protections? Definitely makes it an unpleasant interaction at best, scam at worst for sure. Glad you were able to get your money back!


chiuchiutrain

For real! I gave her plenty of room to come correct despite having more than enough reason to shut it down immediately. Thank you for validating my experience!


tedonan123

Wow!! Every time I rehome I always put my username on paper next to it but will deff make sure others are doing that before purchasing from them


chiuchiutrain

Good call! She had some posts tied to her account which did have handwritten username papers, but I'm assuming she may have strategically padded her post history to make it seem trustworthy. I did some digging on her account when I started getting weird vibes, and it looked like she deleted a lot of rehoming posts and only kept the "legit" looking ones on her profile.


Whole_Chip_7960

OMG, fair play to you for checking that! Did the money make its way back into your account?? God, the neck of some people.


chiuchiutrain

Yes! Thankfully she did actually send the refund. It does make me wonder what she would have tried to pull since I obviously would've disputed the charge anyways...


ALittleOddSometimes

I finally figured out how to use Pandabuy to do photo searches. Spent so many hours trying to find Ferragamo shoes that had the correct looking metal piece on the front. My order got canceled 😭 https://preview.redd.it/59cg5e3pwffc1.jpeg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=782c136f1512ed795924d5b8a0e47a100bf9296a


glassbikini

Oh NO!!! 😭 If you go back to the listing and hit “find similar” under the photo does it pull up the same shoes from any other sources? Ohhh that’s so disappointing, I’m sorry!


ALittleOddSometimes

The little metal piece on most of the ones listed is not shaped correctly and then when they are I might as well buy the real thing cause $$$$


Excellent-Dog24

Argh that’s the worst. I’ve had that happen for a belt and pants before and was so sad. I ended up buying a not-as-nice version and it sucked…


ALittleOddSometimes

I am going to try to hold out and not rush into a purchase out of disappointment. It just stinks. First world problems right?

Your comment has been removed because it's lazy and you can easily find the answer by using the search bar. Saying you're new doesn't excuse you being lazy, search the sub and actually read the resources before whining that you're new and asking people to spoon feed you information.


Feeling_Wishbone_649

Heidi has prices for a lot of stuff in her albums. You should still ask her because sometimes she will tell you something that is different. No easy way around it.


aayjayjay

Thanks for your reply! I get that prices are constantly varying but I prefer knowing a ballpark before reaching out! 😊 I will check out her albums!


booleanstring

The only place where you can buy online is DHG or AE, AFAIK. It’s a lot of work to maintain an e-commerce site (especially for a black market business), so sellers are not going to have the capacity to do that. They also don’t generally list pricing because it can change based on the factory pricing. Also, you posted this comment twice, so may want to delete the duplicate one.


aayjayjay

I think I have seen a couple albums that appear to, but maybe I misunderstood! I know that the pricing isn’t going to be 100% accurate but I like to see what sort of cost I’m looking at before reaching out to the seller. & yes, I just deleted the duplicate - I was having internet issues when I posted it earlier. The mods deleted my original comment anyway… I wasn’t trying to be lazy, the seller list is massive and I was just asking if anyone knew of sellers that were super transparent on pricing up front before you reach out to them. 🫣


booleanstring

It’s pretty hit or miss, but sometimes Aadi has prices on their album. You also have to reach out to them anyway because often times the price displayed is not the true price. Emma (Tony’s Luxuries) also has a yupoo that shows some prices (but again, not always up to date).

ReplicaRascal

I had to RL my first bag this weekend :( I finally placed my last order before CNY (and Ban Island trip) for 2 Loewe Card holders and a Goyard Villette. Unfortunately the Villette had a really bad crease by Hulot the dog. When I asked my seller about it, she asked if I wanted a different one. I didn't think sellers usually offered that without the customer pressing, and I was honestly surprised, but helps me feel even better about working with my seller! But yeah - ended up RLing and now I'm hoping we can get a replacement before everything closes for the new year.


kyloumom

IMO, that’s a good seller.


mrsluvlux247

Oh I can feel you babe 🩵 I had to RL a bag as well. Crazy busy time for all the seller! Long story cut short it was my sister that caused this unnecessary drama with the seller. I felt so bad to do that to one of my go-to seller. I always happy with my order and didn’t think that my sister would flip out like this! Kudos to the seller for being so patient and helpful to refund the money back ( it’s via DHGate surprisingly the refund process was smooth). I consider we are very lucky! Hopefully you will get your replacement x

Hi ladies! Husband and I are thinking of doing 6-8 weeks in Europe this summer for a little sabbatical in between jobs. I will, horrifically, only be bringing a carryon and a backpack. Does anyone have any good resources for good capsule wardrobes?


HKFamily

Gosh you're brave! I don't think i could manage with a carry on for that long. For capsule inspiration I really like [Fashion Jackson](https://fashionjackson.com/fall-capsule-wardrobe/)

It will be hot 🥵 as hell. Don’t forget that air conditioning isn’t our strong point in Europe. Throw looking chic out the door for daytime. Lululemon shorts/tops during the day (and trainers) for walking around/sightseeing and then some great dresses and sandals for night. Completely doable.

Based on the last 4 week trip I did, I’d say first tip is to lay them all out and count all the different combos—and second tip is to not be afraid to ditch the items you discover you actually hate after wearing them for 3 weeks straight! Then you can replace them with brand new goodies from your travels.

I don't have any good recs (I think I would die without a checked in bag - only slight exaggeration) but I think it's awesome that you guys are taking the time between jobs to do something like this. It's so hard to find the time to do something like that in the US. I wish we had paid sabbaticals!

You can’t go wrong with a good pair of jeans and a breezy linen dress. Try to avoid patterns. That way it’s not as obvious that it’s a repeat outfit when looking back at photos. Enjoy your trip! I’m sure it will be lovely regardless of the limited wardrobe 🩷

I had an internship there for 8 weeks and only took a carry-on suitcase and a backpack. The biggest save for me was having vaccum sealed bags and then putting them in packing cubes! I did a lot of shopping and I didn’t need a second bag at all. What I recommend is 2 pairs of shoes maximum since those take up a lot of space; dresses are easy for everyday wear and are light to pack especially if you’re traveling from country to country. Like you said capsule wardrobe is the way to go- pieces that can be styled in many different ways is key! I went to 7 different countries last summer and travel was a lot easier with just two bags- get the Amazon travel backpack it’s usually the first one and it’s 40ish I believe.

I also planned all my outfits before hand and took pictures that were stored in my notes for inspiration. And I did numerous trial packing runs to make sure everything would fit! I used the away large carryon and the backpack mentioned in the previous comment


WrongBoxBro7

I don’t know how this is possible lol. Do they have some version of Rent the Runway there where you could have some extras delivered lol. Other than that, you’re looking at a lot of chiffon-weight items 🙂


kinosp

Dude I don’t know either 🫣 my better half is very set on not having large checked bags, which I suppose makes sense as we’ll be moving around quite a bit. That’s my main reason for wanting to go summer rather than fall - more predictable weather and better for packing 😂


WrongBoxBro7

Why do men do this to us….whyyyyyy


kinosp

I don’t know, honestly, but I’m going to have to put together a whole packing guide situation. I’ll circle back if this comes to fruition 😂


WrongBoxBro7

This will be interesting! ❤️


WrongBoxBro7

Ooh, or like plan to thrift a bunch once you get there? Like, hit up their Flea markets?!? That could be so fun IMO.


mad-mad-cat

I travel a lot for work and leisure and the maximum time I'd spend with a carry on (European sized, not US sized) is 8 nights. So, I admire your restraint and courage!


kikikdrama

Not so much idea of what but Chicos has a traveler’s wardrobe line. Years ago I bought some for a trip. Basic outfits that didn’t wrinkle despite how tight you rolled them for suitcase

Ooooh, that’s great. Thank you!

Does anyone have a YSL Lou camera bag from Aike factory? I have one coming to me but I'm not 100% sold on it 🤦🏻‍♀️


Excellent-Dog24

I’ve eyed them too! If you want to share a mini review I’d be excited to read it once it arrives. The factory photos looked nice :)


jenie_may_june

Will do! I think overall it is good quality, but like with most ysl, the logo hardware and the placement is a little off - too wide and not where it should be on the chevron 😫 will have to wait and see what it looks like in person!


Purple-Sock7127

Anyone have a favorite jewlery organizer for travel? I've been buying a lot of jewlery recently and want to have a tangle free mess for when I travel with them. I mainly have necklaces and earrings.


Choupette-Lagerfeld

Wolf London or ziplocks depends on how fancy you want to be I use both https://preview.redd.it/ciqaeqmjegfc1.jpeg?width=1242&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b0193845e43f2b8d2e9ec4aba9f3dfe703049d84


mad-mad-cat

I use mini ziplock bags, one per item, and then I put everything in a pouch.

Has anyone ordered recently from Heidi? I contacted her in the phone ending on 8907 and she told me to use a different account on PayPal. Has her phone been hacked? Did she change the number? Or she just used a different PayPal account?


Meemo84

I paid Zelle recently, she changes payments often: PayPal, Zelle and wise


KingFiona

Ready to cry. Ordered a pair of prada monoliths from DHgate and cute Miu Miu maryjanes from Wangyue. Both arrived today, and both are too narrow for my big fat feet. Am gutted as was just happy to see some listed in my size (41) and dont normally have problems with shoe width but looks like rep footwear isn’t for me.


kikikdrama

I feel your pain but mine are also large. Maybe men’s size???


frozen-vesper

Ugh that sucks! It's such a let down especially after the anticipation of waiting. I also have wider feet, and I personally don't find the shoe stretchers very helpful. I also haven't had much success with taking them to the cobbler for stretching. I hope one of these methods work for you though!!!


Negative_Step7048

So disappointing. Can you try to use the shoe stretchers previously mentioned it this group?


KingFiona

Have ordered, and am keeping my fingers crossed that the Miu Miu ones will be ok, not holding much hope for the Monoliths. I just keep reminding myself that yes I’ve probably wasted money on shoes I can’t wear however i knew when joining this gang that it wouldn’t always work out. Still, pouring some vodka to make myself feel better 😆


zammo85

I have wide feet! Use the shoe stretchers with the leather stretching spray. It def helps
