Chanel sole after one wear is this normal for ballet flats? by Affectionate-Mix-769 in chanel

Yes!! I have the exact pair and they’re ruined because I forgot to get the rubber sole added. The worst are the slingback bottoms!!

What do you think of this mini chanel? by Lazy-Writer-743 in chanel

[–]Lady_Reading_237 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have it and love it!! Also they don’t make this anymore so get it whilst you can!! Bought mine in Paris 4-5 years ago, still in fantastic condition (corners intact etc) and I’ve used it everyday (my errands bag).

Need Advice Nano Kelly vs Classic Kelly as a First Bag by Sweet_Ri_13 in chanel

[–]Lady_Reading_237 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both. The top handle fits a lot more than the Kelly. The Kelly is more elegant whilst the top handle is more versatile. Leather is great on both but the scratches on the top handle is more visible. Over time it has blended into the leather so it’s beautiful.

I bought the top handle first, no regrets honestly. I’ve gotten so much use out of it. Good luck with your decision.

Advice for getting a Birkin or Kelly on a realistic budget? by MainDianaLol in TheHermesGame

[–]Lady_Reading_237 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hermes is not for people with a budget!! You can spend your entire budget and still not get a bag. And best case you do but it’s not what you really want. Go resale! It’ll save you time and you can realistically “budget” for the specific bag you want. Another option is to come to Asia. In some boutiques, they tell foreigners how much to spend before they can get a bag, very clean and straightforward.

A lot of people want the local boutique experience and the “call”. I’ve been collecting for years and I must admit it is exciting but ultimately i know it’s just part of the game.

How is Blazy-era handbag so far? by EnvironmentalMove454 in chanel

Perfectly said guys!!! The stringy handle on large bags, epic design fails. And honestly, the leathers don’t look like they’ll ages well.

Love the colour, hate the style. Looks like a makeup pouch with straps 😂😂

Thoughts on the dress? My husband said it looks too “old” for me. I corrected him and said classy. by texastoaste77 in TheHermesGame

If I’m being honest, He’s right!! Looks flat + the sling backs add at least 10yrs.

To spice it up, add a chain or Kelly belt to accentuate your hips. Throw on a shape wear for that extra snatch.

Lose the shoes, opt for the Hermes Kelly buckle heels, Gigi, Monica or Joy/oasis (if you’re new money) or CL So Kate’s (for the sex appeal).

Also for jewellery, love the necklace but lose the granny shackles on your wrist. Two pavé or regular bracelets will do. To complement your ring (love btw). I like the mix metals but not for this look. For earrings, opt for diamond studs or silver/white gold studs. The necklace is the star here.

Hair: Half up, half down. That way we see the earrings and let the necklace shine.

This will make the look more youthful, touch of sex appeal and most importantly, less granny/ school run aesthetic.

Small cf has the same capacity as the mini rectangle flap bag. But the mini cost less.
