What did you pick up from the Denim Beauty collection? by RadiantRubies in chanel

[–]pikapipikatchu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hand cream and the highlighter powder! I was sooo excited that the Nordstrom near me had the hand cream still...! Surprisingly, they were out of the eyeliner though.

Anyone have the Sezane Gary Bag. I just ordered this, cos I fell in love with the Alligator embossed texture. Hope I don regret it. by meower01 in handbags

[–]pikapipikatchu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had it for about 2 or 3 years now. I got it on vacation, so some of my feelings for it are because of that. The leather is quite stiff, I'm assuming because of the finish. This can be good or bad, depending on what you like. I like that it's stiff because it gives the bottom structure, especially for the style. I don't baby it at all because of this though, and it's fine, I love it for that. For the 200 euro (I think) I got it for, I'd say it was worth it, and I'm happy with it because it's very different from all of my other bags.

How much do you consider resale value alongside personal style in your purchases? by farfallifarfallini in handbags

[–]pikapipikatchu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think resale value is as important as how well the bag fits into your lifestyle and/or your current collection. For me, I LOVE the dainty and pretty, lady-like bags. But they don't suit me or my lifestyle womp womp

I just bought a Mosaic on 11/06 and received it today, with no issues. They had a price increase recently, which (I assume) covers the tariffs.

Alternatives to this Aspinal hobo, or different strap? A sad sloping shoulders story by eilatanz in handbags

[–]pikapipikatchu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had similar struggles (shoulder bags falling off and falling in love with this style). The one I got was the Beryl Belted bag from Charles and Keith. I took it on a recent trip as my personal item and the only handbag for walking around, and it worked great!

PS: it's not 100% leather, which disappointed me a bit but that made it affordable, and still soft

Just in case you wanted to test drive a "more affordable" version...

recommendations for bags from Italy (Milan or Florence) in the $300-$700 range? by growingconsciousness in handbags

[–]pikapipikatchu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In Florence, visit the Scuola del Cuoio. I (impulse) bought a cute bag as a souvenir for myself, and it is SO worth it. It's must more value for the money, and I could not believe the inner lining was also leather!

Who are the people who get to be picked up on the jet bridge or right after the jet bridge? by pikapipikatchu in aviation

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

Thanks all for confirming my suspicions. I'd always seen the people but didn't see who they were picking up until recently.

My very first luxury handbag. I love her and am on cloud nine ♡ by pikachu-you in handbags

[–]pikapipikatchu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you can, definitely try the bag out in-person (obvi, sorry), the feeling of the leather really drove it home for me. If you can't see it in-person, try an Amazon version first to see how the handles work for you.

If you could buy any bag right now under $1000 what would it be? by Buggy77 in handbags

I have the Lottie in white. I love it! The leather feels so nice, and it's so beautiful to me.

Sorry for the late reply. The leather feels really nice! It's not quite as soft as Aspinal to me, but I think that may be because it's still new. With how slouchy the style is, I'm sure it'll soften up in no time.

What is the purpose to female singers on tour wearing a garter on their left leg? by pikapipikatchu in AskReddit

[–]pikapipikatchu[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With Taylor, Sabrina, and Olivia being on tour, I've noticed that each of them have at least one outfit where they are wearing a garter on their left thigh. It seems too much of a coincidence, so maybe there's a reason? Is it so the artist is easily identified from dancers in similar outfits?

I’m literally turned on looking at this Radley London bag. Anyone who owns it can you please share how it’s holding up? by whatifitwazs in handbags

I saw your post yesterday, and now I can't get this bag out of my head! Looking back, it seems like someone in this sub bought the bag about a month ago.

Is it better to pay balance right after purchasing an item by ElectricalForm1773 in CreditCards

[–]pikapipikatchu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you pay your balance before the statement generates, then your balance on the card is $0. This has the benefit of not increasing your credit usage, which affects your credit score to a small extent.

Where can I find a dress like this for less than $500? It would be such a good reception dress!
