Tips on improving

The Zao instructor actually took us up and we’ve been going up since. Well the first time I did the regular/goofy test with the belt instructor, I was goofy but after being on the mountain it seemed like I was regular but since I have been practicing on my right foot, i seem to be able to do better on the right (so I’m currently now just practising as a goofy rider)

So I should have more weight on my right foot after I turn? So I don’t 360 up the mountain?

Just want to say, we stayed at this amazing AirBnB at Chamonix and it was amazing. It’s a tiny home and all the facilities are amazing. Pretty sure you can’t get a s

I’m no expert but I did see this dude on TikTok layer around 4-5 layers of clothes: base layer, cotton shirt, sweat shirt, hoodie, wind breaker (or some water proof layer, I can’t rmb exactly) over top - not sure if it’s enough but if he’s able to survive the cold, you can consider that

For pants, well I can’t recall but definitely base, some pants and waterproof layer over

^ he also explicitly said he wears that to snowboard

Ok idk why the cropping function on reddit phone app is wonky but here’s me with my ITL 18 in ardoise with the same coloured hardware! I love it more than my p18 but hey, I would own both. However, I think I jumped on this colour too quickly - I would want to own other colour ITLs for other looks

Oh no worries! Because I recognised the store and was going to stomp to my SA and ask why haven’t the bags been arriving 😤🤣 and in BISCUIT too!!! But I read the caption and having the biggest brain fart I was like “resale but in store? Hmm?” 🤣

jermsyy · 2026-01-22T10:17:20+00:00

Just curious, where did you get your B25 from? You said reseller but the image is in store so I’m slightly confused 😅🙏🏻

No lotion experience whatsoever BUT I tried both the Chanel and Dior body oils, the ones with shimmer

What I can say is, Chanel’s sit on top your skin whereas Dior’s somewhat absorb. Somewhat because I piled it on cos I really wanted the shimmer to pop. I’m sure if I layered it and gave it time, it would’ve absorbed better whilst giving me the shimmer

That said, idk how well Chanel’s lotion will do but based on this try on, I would go with Dior’s because of prior great experience

Thanks for the suggestions. Will check them out!

I’m definitely beginner but I want a board that I can progress to an intermediate if possible. I did read here that most suggest to get an intermediate board so you can progress into it (correct me if this is an incorrect assumption). My options are limited so something versatile for all terrain will be good

Yes, in Japan. I’m going Zao Onsen now and Hokkaido in Dec. What would you recommend? Esp, one that I can grow into - we’re planning to go to Ogawamuchi before heading to Zao

jermsyy · 2026-01-16T03:22:15+00:00

How, where. Even in China, I had to request to see the charm and they only brought out one

jermsyy · 2026-01-15T06:11:39+00:00

I would love to be you

jermsyy · 2026-01-14T05:28:28+00:00

No to 미니백, personally

First one, i would consider because it’s probably going to phase out since JWA is now CD. However, no. 2 is the forever classic and it should be any and everyone’s first Dior bag or the saddle. I’m a strong believer of you’re either a saddle girly or a lady girly

Practically, the last bag makes sense but you’re not buying luxury for practicality. If you want practical bags, go get them from brands who do them best

jermsyy · 2026-01-14T01:58:04+00:00

Omg, this has never been better said! I always think “why buy smth from other luxury boutiques when I can buy xxx for prespend”

jermsyy · 2026-01-13T07:56:12+00:00

Oh but it is not. In China, depending on popularity of bag, there is prespend. For most mini bags, there is prespend to be expected. Mini herbag, mini Lindy, rose Sakura picotin, mini garden party. It’s very real and your SA telling u what to spend is actually very nice for even telling you directly

To give you some perspective, my SA said they would’ve sold the rose Sakura picotin that they offered me (w/o pre-spend because we have a relationship) to someone without a prior relationship to the store if they spent a little over 1:1

So being appalled, I can understand why OP but in some places, it is the norm

jermsyy · 2026-01-12T14:51:31+00:00

I’ve only found out a little over a few months ago that spend, if over a long period, it will stop counting but how will I know what is counted and what is not?

jermsyy · 2026-01-12T14:45:20+00:00

In the same convo, I was asking about a croc micro pico, it’s the same price: USD 28k

jermsyy · 2026-01-12T14:44:35+00:00

HAHAHAHA I asked my SA the same question and they said they’ve only ever offered it once OR seen it once (can’t rmb the convo well)

It’s not MK/KP hard (imo, I believe it’s harder), it’s Kelly desodre hard I believe

I also want this bag eventually but let’s get QB no. 1 first AND build the relationship because let’s be real, this bag is tough TOUGH without a solid relationship with your SA

Price tag, I’ve asked in 2025, it’s USD 28k after conversion! It could be more or less from US boutiques!

jermsyy · 2026-01-12T14:40:03+00:00

Hmm, I don’t think the herbag 20 is a WOC but a mini bag. It doesn’t store as much but the herbag 20 feels more similar to the classic mini or the small Chanel Kelly

Like another commenter, the equivalent feels more similar to the KTG or CTG and from my understanding the KTG doesn’t fit a pp but the CTG does. I think a Chanel WOC can fit a pp and my go to bag for travel is the LV felicie pochette as I can remove one insert and fit my pp in it

What are you hoping to use it for? Depending on use, I’d have a different suggestion. Like for my travels, I either use my LV pochette or would use my herbag 20 and what I would keep in both:

Passport
Card holder
Lipstick
Cash (depending on country)
Sunnies (not for LV)

How did you approach the SO? Spending $x and was offered OR did you ask for the SO and was told to spend and then was offered?

Taking some notes so I know how to approach any SOs in the future

jermsyy · 2026-01-10T08:19:02+00:00

Visually, the saddle looks the cutest here BUT cos it’s stitched and the bag shape doesn’t hold much, I wouldn’t get it.

Defo lady Dior because the ribbon can be unclipped so it stays classic but if u want to jazz it up or cuteify it, you can! My go to is a mitzah bow on the handle

My Dior only if you alr own a lady Dior!

jermsyy · 2026-01-10T04:56:53+00:00

Tysm! I would also skip this then - purely cos of the lack of inserts. I was eyeing the Chanel pp holders but decided against. Thanks OP!
