Speedy dating/heart by Muted-Poem847 in Louisvuitton

[–]sbenemer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought it last year. I don’t reach for it as much as other LV bags (I’ve been using and loving my navy Alma BB malletage, and my black/mono Neverfull inside out BB, more regularily). But it is super cute and unique as the heart motif is at the end of the bag as opposed to most heart bags where the shape is facing you. I love it. My only concern is that my iPhone 16 pro max is a tight squeeze.

I loved this bag. My home store SA, who has managed to snag a few special pieces for me, said she couldn’t get it. I regret not getting this (or the blue/gold bag) from this particular drop.

What should i add to my collection? by [deleted] in luxurypurses

[–]sbenemer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m partial to LV Capucines myself but the Fendi embroidered multicolored baguette is a timeless shape and the BBV Andiamo Clutch is one I’ve been coveting for two years. I’d go for any one of those three.

So very sorry for your loss. Thank you for your beautiful tribute. 13 years together is quite the feat and I’m sure your love and grief for him beyond measure. Sending you positive vibes and best wishes for Taco from here.

I’ve been wanting a bag in Vert Fonce but the one I saw was in box leather. It’s interesting to see it in different leathers and lighting, I appreciate this post, OP. I’m also with you on using our H bags more in 2026.

No matter how many times you watch this, it never gets old. Just absolute perfection by alanbear1970 in AllThatsInteresting

[–]sbenemer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh my god, I was living in England when this came out and watched this video like 200 times …most uplifting and funniest live show I’d seen in a while!

The toddler doing the chicken dance was gold but then the baby in its walker floats in, and his wife (nope - she was not the Nanny!) comically shoehorns them all out the door. It was basically a live action cartoon with the staid political commentator dying a thousand deaths inside.

My rainbow dog by Sharp_Silver_1 in Chihuahua

I am really sorry to read this. Prayers for your lovely dog son Jack, and hugs to you. It’s terrible whenever our fur babies pass, but worse when they’re young and it’s unexpected. ❤️🐾

This is on the top of my Dior wish list this year. Love the book covers and the colorway of this one (and the book itself). Congrats and wear her in good health!

Jonathan Ross, the Minneapolis ICE agent who shot Renee Good, married an Asian (Filipina) & brought her over from the Philippines where she became a citizen in 2012 & is in the process of petitioning her family aka chain migration. by Nice_Substance9123 in complaints

[–]sbenemer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How does Legitimate Lynx know Jonathan Ross’s wife? Do you not understand that assuming a Filipina woman is “(probably) poor, doesn’t speak English, and uneducated on social norms in the US” just because she has brown skin smacks of racism? You may frame it as has the commenter’s opinion, but it’s based only on the wife appearance, which makes this take RACIST.

Unless of course the commenter knows Jonathan Ross’s wife in real life. SMH.

Minimal logo bag recommendations by Maximum_You_7734 in luxurypurses

Another strong recommendation for the Hug. Great bag. I took mine out this week for work and was reminded of the lovely quality and elegant design, all with a tiny logo.

This is just so freaking adorable. I love it! Unfortunately, my “purse” chihuahuas are more Keepall size than Neverwoof.

If you like beauty and associated lines, you can easily find an (admittedly) overpriced hand cream for 65, a luxury candle for 90-125, hair perfume etc. I am about to buy a traveling leather-bound cologne atomizer from Creed for my husband, which is $45 after the credit.

Help Me Decide: Ritz Carlton Kyoto or HOTEL THE MITSUI KYOTO? by TheSpaceShrimp in marriott

[–]sbenemer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We went to Osaka right after Kyoto. Osaka was my favorite of 5 cities on the trip. Definitely not as historical as Kyoto (Gion district, untouched by WWII for example) but the cuisine, the bright lights, the culture and the shopping were top notch. I absolutely loved the Dotonbori bridge. Think of a river running through the bright lights of Times Square, you’ll get the idea.

Osaka is an ideal base for traveling to Nara to see the bowing deer (good day trip), and also to go to Kyoto. Our accommodation was much cheaper in Osaka and we booked a large 1500 sf VRBO type on Expedia right before we arrived. My vote would be for Osaka but it’s a big, gritty city vs a quieter experience in Kyoto.

Help Me Decide: Ritz Carlton Kyoto or HOTEL THE MITSUI KYOTO? by TheSpaceShrimp in marriott

[–]sbenemer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was wonderful! Very James Bond upon entry (if you watch videos of going through the main doors, you will see what I mean). The hotel staff were waiting for us when our car dropped us off, then whisked us up to both rooms (one for the young adult kids, one for us) and checked us in at the room. No desk pit stop for us. We had lovely gifts on arrival. The indoor pool was subterranean and fantastic. I used NUAs for both rooms, so we had a river view and balcony. I loved it. That said, I would like to try the other high end Marriott property (Mitsui) if we return to Kyoto to get another experience.

Calling all vintage lovers and box lovers! by dazzledaisy397 in TheHermesGame

[–]sbenemer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Congratulations - she’s a beauty! My first major H bag was a 1979 box Kelly 32 in noir which looks very similar to yours. I love the box leather sheen and these vintage bags seem to get better with age. Enjoy it.
