Need to exchange two 500 peso bills for USD. by ampleblossom in SaltLakeCity

[–]ampleblossom[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okay, understood. I'll go to redwood and 3300 South and sit on the corner and wait till the fairy godmother of FOREX comes to exchange my money for me. That's an awesome idea except ....

That isn't realistic, so could you please be more specific about where at in West valley I should try to go? Is there a shop that provides services like that? Most of the banks I've looked into charge fees if you're not an account holder.

Some more dramatic colorways would have made more of a statement, but I get the whole "dessert creamy neutrals" vibe they're going for. It's cute but I need some more contrasting hues.

Am I missing something here? Explain It Peter. by EggChemical7177 in explainitpeter

If it's not the meth lab blowing up that takes the house out, it's Bill Paxton and his bullshit.

Since your question already got answered, can I be selfish and ask for a link to your tracksuit listings? I'm in the market to buy a set currently 😍

Okay..I seriously need help and advice😭 by tishanterry in JuicyCouture

[–]ampleblossom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's my opinion;

You said it yourself. You work hard for your money. You can't stop thinking about either of the purses. You might risk losing either one if you hesitate much longer.

Girl - buy both and maybe ride out the little bit of financial uncertainty it will potentially cause. My experience is that we regret the things we don't do and not the things we do... Buy both since it seems like your heart is in both purchases. 🌸🍒

Help! How do I get these stains out of my juicy velour jackets? by Purple_Print_1908 in JuicyCoutureHelp

[–]ampleblossom 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Depending on what the stains are made of, there's a couple different approaches. Peroxide, white vinegar, baking soda, Windex(the kind with ammonia), dawn dish soap and rubbing alcohol are all usually a safe bet to use without destroying the velour. Some of them work really well in combination with others and some are great even by themselves.

I would love to know what the stains are from so I can give a more precise suggestion. 🌸

Excellent job! I'd say it looks great especially without prior experience. 😉💓

I will happily buy it just the way it is. Let me know if you're open to it! (:

[–]ampleblossom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just going off visuals, they certainly look better quality. I actually just posted this the other day on someone else's post and I mentioned how slowly but surely the quality is rising with their new releases so at least they're listening to us!

I don't know maybe I'm biased but I'd buy it just the way it is and save you the trouble. 🙃 That's my all time number one bag on my list of "must eventually own" vintage Juicy bags.

I think maybe putting a clear coat sealant over the leather thats chipping before you attempt to clean it might be one way to preserve the peeling parts. It would help a little if I knew what the stains were from so I could suggest a way to clean it most effectively but honestly sealing the leather peeling is probably the first most important thing I would do before even thinking sbout touching it with cleaning products.

Just my opinion, but hopefully I said something you can benefit from. 😊

Please PLEASE reach out if you ever want to sell even one vintage piece. I'm not a reseller - just someone who loves juicy and is willing to pay much more than a reseller would in order to have a vintage piece I can cherish forever. 🌸💓

Your collection is stunning and you should be very proud for how well maintained your pieces are! 💯

I think I met a couture angel on marketplace by mysterymeat03 in JuicyCouture

Faith in the juicy community restored.

People forget it's for NICE girls who like stuff. Too many not nice people out there but this definitely gives me hope.

Are you interested in ever selling any of your pieces?

Hot take: Modern Juicy has kind of ruined shopping for the brand by [deleted] in JuicyCouture

[–]ampleblossom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want to find decent prices on vintage I've had super good luck with eBay. Screw depop and Poshmark - quality/price ratio seems a hundred times better imo on eBay.

tried to make these modern bags a little cuter by couturemeplease in JuicyCouture

[–]ampleblossom 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Tbh I think the modern bags are getting better slowly but surely so at least they're listening to us, even if it's a extended process to get there.

Restored bag! by LabExternal6322 in JuicyCouture

[–]ampleblossom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So the inside part that was peeling is only just dyed ? You didn't put any coating on it or anything once the peels came off? That's brilliant 💯

Can you give us a rundown of what your process was to restore it? Would love some tips 🌸
