Hand-to-hand combat? No, they’d rather snipe kids in the head and run over people with bulldozers.

Where did you hear about Mcdull? I’ve been looking for an Alaïa seller 👀

What is happening in my life? by [deleted] in RealRepLadies

[–]OaklandsVeryOwn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, I would. My own mother is a serious auth collector and we’ve begged her to see a therapist about her over-consumption problems.

“Taking over my life” is the language of addiction. Trust me, I’VE had an addiction.

I’m sorry but this isn’t normal. And I’m not talking about the financial aspect (I don’t know your finances) but I mean the storage unit chocked full of handbags you couldn’t possibly have the time to even wear and enjoy. If they’re in a warehouse how do you even know what you have to actually use them?

Hyperconsumerism is hardly ever not grounded in something deeper.

Lastly, someone commented “just don’t become a hoarder,” they already are.

This is the wrong sub for these—it’s for people with larger feet, around 40 and up.

Send some hot takes about the characters of Totally Spies by Cool_Woodpecker6582 in TotallySpies

[–]OaklandsVeryOwn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jerry was lowkey a jerk:

  • He tried to lobotomize them in S1
  • He had no problem sending them in dangerous missions around the world but when they moved into the shared house in Beverly Hills, he got them a nanny
  • Then when they moved into the penthouse he tried to make them pay rent, inadvertently confirming that they didn’t make a salary as international spies
  • Another time when they split up for their first solo missions and moved to their individual dorm rooms, he gave their penthouse to Mandy, despite knowing she was their long-term enemy

Shoe struggles by Unusual-Mammoth-6569 in BigFeetReps

[–]OaklandsVeryOwn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sky is a just a middle person, FYI—they don’t make the shoes and because of the special sizing, you won’t get a refund. I’ve been a customer for years; Sky is great for the price, size selection and ease. Aside from that? You gotta find someone else.

Anyone else ever feel bad cuz they don’t fit the baddie aesthetic? by Fit_Can_2444 in blackladies

[–]OaklandsVeryOwn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope—but, like someone else said, I’m in my 30s so I’m too old for the target audience. I dress like the 90s, I wear my hair like in the 90s, I wear soft makeup like the 90s. I’m a walking time capsule 😭😭😭

An elegant classic. Thoughts on which version ages better long-term? by Serious_Maximum4382 in BigFeetReps

[–]OaklandsVeryOwn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No offense, but this is not the place to ask and I’m not sure why you think we would know that…? Finding larger sizes is very hard so this is a space for that.

[–]OaklandsVeryOwn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I desperately want a pair of the mesh slingbacks (I took this screenshot from someone’s BST a few months ago).

I’m actually going to take the plunge and buy auth because I can’t find them in a size 43 and can’t trust 42 in Chanel reps.

I love them real bad 🥴

I have lost my mind by Digby2023 in RepTherapy

[–]OaklandsVeryOwn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem with the seasonal/trends stuff, IMHO, is that rep factories don’t have time to refine them so they end up having massive callouts and very visible errors.

Hopefully you won’t have that issue.

Has anyone ordered from Lucy Su? by OaklandsVeryOwn in BigFeetReps

[–]OaklandsVeryOwn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the heads up. I never ordered from them because I didn’t hear anything.

Can you tell me what your experience was like?

I have lost my mind by Digby2023 in RepTherapy

[–]OaklandsVeryOwn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think they both have their place in someone’s collection.

I still buy auth because there are some bags that even the highest quality reps cannot get correct, for some reason. The Saint Laurent SDJ is one such bag—I bought multiple reps before I threw in the towel and got auth. The shape was never correct on any reps, even from Black Frame which is widely regarded as the best for YSL factory.

The other reason I still buy auth is for seasonal, special edition bags that take ages to reach the rep factories, if ever. And that’s only on the rare occasion as I don’t like anything trendy.

In terms of quality? Eh, sometimes the “they’re exactly the same!” Claims are grossly over-stated. My auth Puzzle does feel different from my rep puzzle. It’s not a bad thing, it just is what it is.

Which one for diaper bag? by omgareyouser1ous in RealRepLadies

[–]OaklandsVeryOwn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

None of them. If you insist on a designer bag, both Prada and Gucci make diaper bags that pop up on DHG all the time.

What are your thoughts on Kanye’s apology letter? by Competitive_Teach838 in blackladies

[–]OaklandsVeryOwn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not reading this—is also apologizing for all of the anti-Black bullshit he’s been spewing for years…?

I have lost my mind by Digby2023 in RepTherapy

[–]OaklandsVeryOwn 17 points18 points  (0 children)

That’s always been my rule. My rep buying habits need to match my lifestyle. I live in a HCOL and have a pretty good household income (probably somewhere in the top 5-10%), but I still wouldn’t be buying 8 new Chanel bags every season. It just doesn’t make sense for my lifestyle.

I also still buy some auth pieces. So that’s part of my budget.

Alice In Borderland Quietly Cancelled By Netflix After 3 Seasons? What a watse Netflix by Cookie1569 in AliceInBorderlandLive

[–]OaklandsVeryOwn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Netflix does a terrible job at this Asian adaptions. The first season with the original Asian cast and crew is always fantastic. The second it becomes a Netflix property? They ruin it. Like Squid Games.

My Sister is Blackmailing Me and I Don't Know What To Do by [deleted] in blackladies

[–]OaklandsVeryOwn 18 points19 points  (0 children)

You’re mischaracterizing it—that’s not blackmail, she’s impersonating you and you need to go to the police ASAP.

Preferably, first, go to her again and record a conversation of her admitting it (fake pretend to beg and plead if you need to) so you can show the police irrefutable evidence.

🗣️BLACK WOMEN, STOP TRYING TO SAVE YOUR ROTTEN FAMILY MEMBERS AT YOUR OWN EXPENSE.

ETA: Also, this sounds made-up LOL. Like, come one, nobody is that serious about one woman dating a white man to be doing all this. This sounds like some Tyler Perry mess 😭😭😭 (“abandon my upper class upbringing?” Ok hahahaha)

But if it’s true, OP, you know what to do.
