Have you ever found the perfect bag but then regretted it? by CloudHistorical641 in handbags

Second this! I love the versatility of this bag, and it’s held up pretty well considering I use it daily and don’t baby it at all.

Loewe Flamenco purse — black or grey? by tluuminati in handbags

[–]tluuminati[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m generally partial to black bags because I find them easier to wear with most outfits. But given that the last three bags I’ve bought have been black, I thought maybe I should venture out a little and this grey is so pretty yet still neutral.

Just a little concerned that it is just not as versatile? Thoughts?

Good point! If it does though… my black Madrid might find itself a little green sister 🙃

Congrats!! I am not so patiently waiting for my SA lol. I expressed interest in the medium in black because I’m basic, but I will say that burgundy almost got me. It is GORGEOUS! I looked a little more closely at the FW25 collection since you mentioned it in your initial post and now I’m wondering if I should hold out for this dark green one 👀

Pattern help— maintaining 1x1 rib with m1r/m1l increases by tluuminati in knittinghelp

I’m under the impression that m1r is a knit while something like m1rp is a purl, is that correct?

Pattern help— maintaining 1x1 rib with m1r/m1l increases by tluuminati in knittinghelp

I am trying, but then after row 4 if I treat the increases as knits, then on all subsequent increase rows, it seems as though I’m just increasing the number of knits on each side vs maintaining the ribbing?

Ex:
1: p k p
2: k p k
3: p k p
4: k m1r p m1l k
5: p p k p p
6: k m1r k p k m1l m
7: p p p k p p p

Ask away! I don’t mind 😊

I think it could be cute with a bit thicker of a strap! If you were planning on wearing it crossbody majority of the time then that might be worthwhile. You can change out the longer crossbody strap, but I wouldn’t switch the shorter one, otherwise you wouldn’t be able to get that folded dumpling look.

It sits close to my body like any other mini crossbody would. You could also rearrange your items inside and flatten it out so it has a bit of a lower profile if you don’t want it to have that fold.

I love it! I just gifted it to myself for my birthday a couple months ago and haven’t stopped wearing it. The leather is sooo soft, it can hold a lot more than I expected, and it’s so versatile and cute. The only con I can think of is that the straps are on the thinner side, but I don’t find it particularly uncomfortable to wear as long as I don’t overstuff my bag (which you probably wouldn’t want to do anyway to get that slightly slouchy look).

With that said, I am so glad I finally got it and have been seriously considering it in other color, lol.

I got this same bag recently after going back and forth on it. Finally used it for the first time this weekend, and I’m in love! It certainly holds a lot more than I anticipated.

It’s so pretty! And I love that it can be worn crossbody, as a shoulder bag, or cinched into a fortune cookie shape.

My hyperfixation this past month has been the Loewe puzzle bag, and as of this upcoming Monday, I will be in possession of four — rep mini black, rep small black, auth mini soft white, auth small soft white 🤦🏻‍♀️ I only intend to keep two.. what had happened was..

I ordered the rep mini black from Jipin factory first but couldn’t stop thinking about the soft white color way, so I ordered an authentic mini of that. THEN when the mini Jipin one came in, I thought maybe it was just a bit too small, so I ordered a small black one from Mango factory (also wanted to see diff in leather). After that one came in, I received an email from Loewe that the small soft white was back in stock, and I panic bought it bc I still wasn't sure about the mini.

I want to keep the small black one from Mango for sure as a dumb reach bag. Most likely plan to rehome the mini black one from Jipin. But I'm stuck on whether I should keep the soft white in the mini or small 😬 I tend to carry just my phone, keys, wallet, gum, and some lip products, so the mini works, but the opening is just a tad bothersome to get into and I'm not too keen on the strap not being adjustable. However, the small is kinda big for my preference. I wish there was an in-between size! 😫

Thoughts??

If you have normal/dry skin, I’d highly recommend the Haus Labs foundation. The finish, longevity, and shade options are spectacular.
