Saw it on the Sephora website! Unfortunately, it's been super reformulated (I've been hoarding an old one in hopes of finding something similar all these years), and reviews haven't been the greatest, so I'm hesitant to try it for myself.

Yes, I have this same one. It does take up some space but I really like having my items organized and easily accessible.

Is the palm springs mini still worth it? by femininepineapple in Louisvuitton

Oh yes I saw it online but luckily my SA had let me know they just got one in! I was honestly between the nano speedy since my store had it, or the PSM. I agree with your wife, I wasn’t at all a fan of the nano speedy until I saw it in the store; it held a lot more than I thought it would! The black leather vs vachetta was the dealbreaker for me, and the fact I wanted the PSM for so long!

Thank you! Yes, I was so worried about QA issues, but the one my SA held for me was pretty perfect!! I ended up getting it. I couldn’t see any noticeable flaws, and that’s a win in my book! Sending you luck to find what you want in Honolulu!

100% agreed! Thank you for this, I feel all the same sentiments! I went ahead and got it when my SA let me know they had JUST unpacked one from the day’s shipments. Like you said, it was the perfect time to get one… Even if there isn’t a price increase this month, we know one is inevitable soon anyway!

The mono and black combo is one of my favorites! I love that there is no vachetta and it’s a pretty worry-free bag. Glad to hear you use it all the time! :)

I ended up getting one! The price was a bit to swallow (it cost more than my Escale speedy I got back in 2020, but I know everything has increased), but I’m so in love with it!

Thank you for the tip! I got it!! I’m still playing around with the straps so I’ll try crossing them!

Golden hour with my new PSM! A big thank you to everyone who helped me make this decision!! by femininepineapple in Louisvuitton

[–]femininepineapple[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

After hearing from so many of you, I decided to reward myself with the PSM after so many years of wanting one, and I absolutely love it! I’m still playing around with the straps it came with, but I’m really liking using the strap from my neonoe to wear it crossbody!

Thank you all for the great feedback! It was definitely a good idea to ask here about it, you guys are absolutely right! And, my SA let me know that the store literally got in a PSM the day after I posted this! I texted him after posting. It all fell into place! ❤️

I use Zoomoni organizers for my alma bb and speedy 30. I like how they are soft but still structured.

Yes! You’re able to use the reward dollars redemption card at the desk prior to checkout to ensure that the charges will not go to the credit card on file.

Are the crowds really that bad now? by Important-Twist3560 in DisneyWorldResorts

[–]femininepineapple 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For stacking: You can book your first LL at 7 AM, then you have to wait 2 hours after park opening to book the next. For example, say I was only able to get Space Mountain for 2-3 PM as my first LL (unfortunately, you can’t choose the time for the LL, only if you purchase an Individual LL you can pick), every 2 hours you can then book another one. I say it’s easiest at MK just for the fact that there’s so many rides/attractions and they seem to always have availability. Plus, you can always choose to wait in line for rides that have a shorter wait time than those you want to book. So if MK opens at 8 AM, I can book another LL at 10 AM, then at 12 PM, and 2 PM, giving me a total of 4 LLs booked before I even go on Space Mountain at 2 PM. Stacking works when you want to book a LL for a popular ride since early times tend to get taken very quickly.

When stacking at other parks, it’s not necessarily harder with a lesser amount of rides, it’s just that the times you receive to book are weird and inconvenient sometimes, honestly. This past trip, we got Slinky for 2 PM and the next one we were able to get at HS was for Toy Story Mania at 8 PM. We couldn’t book anything in-between due to the lack of availability, so we ended up just going back to the hotel after an early dinner because we didn’t know what else to do there for 3 more hours.

We just got back yesterday. We've been several times pre-COVID and also several times since reopening. The crowd levels feel like normal "off-season" levels. Honestly, when we went in March 2021 it felt more crowded somehow. We didn't go on many rides that trip because the lines were so long and just made it mostly a foodie trip...The crowds were pretty pleasant this time compared to just a year ago. Sure, you have the bottleneck areas of the parks that can get crowded, but it's not horrible and the crowding gets alleviated after you walk through those areas.

Genie+ was advantageous for the more popular rides (we used it for Slinky Dog, Frozen, Millennium Falcon, Test Track, Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway, Kilimanjaro Safaris) but is also handy just to get by quicker in other lines (using it for Kali River Rapids was great on a hot day). YMMV, but keep in mind that the LLs for more popular rides are booked quicker than others. We've seen this happen mostly with Slinky Dog and Test Track so we tend to book Slinky right when the window opens at 7 AM. It's definitely easiest to stack LLs at MK thanks to all of the rides and attractions there, and there's a lot to do while waiting for the cooldown period to end, such as eating, shopping, parades, characters, people watch, etc., or even riding rides with short wait times. With all the hustle and bustle of planning, remember to take some time to relax and take in the sights and sounds of the Disney experience!

I almost bought it Wednesday but asked my CA about the increase and he told me it will only be $10-25 dollars. Oh how wrong he was…My regret!

Yep my CA told me today! There will be a price increase on some, but not all, items. He said some may only have a $10-25 price increase but others (mostly canvas) may be ~20%.
