General Dior Questions

[luvbrands]

no problem, gobi.

are you going to get them?

 

[Gobi]

No I don't think i will buy it from ebay even if the bag is very cute

 

[seditionary]

the bag looked so much better when it was in the ad.... the ones or one in the pic posted look terrible

i dont care if i am politically incorrect, but i love fur.... however not this kind...

 

[matisse]

I'm not crazy about the fur...the bag is ok (I like it a lot in snakeskin)

 

[Sugo]

I have to agree with most of you.
Though I love fur and wear it....this is quite disturbing....I think it's the stripe that brings the fur back into the context of being a real animal....kind of like those fur "scarves(??)" that have the head attached to it.

 

[LilyBird]

the poor thing

the fur or shape don't really appeal to me. I prefer the Dior lipgloss necklace.

 

[pinkdaisy17]

It kinda frightens me.

 

[social*butterfly]

Like the bag, but it may look better if the fur was black...

IMO B)

Hi peeps,

PrinceofCats - In answer to your question - I prefer Faux fur to the real thing. I think as i have grown up, i discovered that i did not like the thought of wearing real fur, the fact that an animal was killed simply to create some type of garment or handbag. I know its hypocritical because i wear leather and eat red meat, but carrying around an Aligator/crocodile or any other species (that dont need to be sacrificed) just does NOT APPEAL to me and never will.

4-5 years ago my lovely husband bought me an expensive huge fur coat and i was horrified at first, and said i would not wear it. I checked out the lining and details and it was a faux fur, which looks like a mink. I wore it during my pregnancies and that coat was a life saver. it kept me warm during those cold chilly winter evenings and mornings on the way to work in London. People of a certain age group would give me the filthiest of looks, rich old ladies turning up their noses. i only realised why when i went out with my husband and was still getting the filthy looks. People thought it was a real fur coat.but i knew the truth. So there you go, Faux fur can look real. BEAUTY AND COMFORT WITHOUT THE CRUELTY - thats my motto

I think it's sleek and cute.

 

[DressageChick]

I it!! Of course, maybe being obsessed with everything equestrian may have something to do with it...

I think saddle blags will be the next played-out trend. Plus, I dont really like that much gold-accenting, unless most of your accessories are gold, it could get tricky.

 

[Sugo]

Saddle bags ARE a "played out trend".
They gained too much popularity, too quickly and are everywhere!!!

 

[Plumour]

I'm not a fan of the Saddle bags, I have a black logo double saddle bag which is sort of an "unwanted" gift
but I love this one a lot.
just love how the sleek black leather combines with the shape of the bag

 

[MoMoCiTa]

I it! its simple and sleeek! the gold looks great with the black leather and i agree that it would look good only with matching accessories!

 

[hollyslookingdry]

Very cute I like saddle bags a lot. The gold accenting is nice, but you do have to watch out for your accessories. Gold is hot this spring/summer though I remember someone saying?

 

[TheSoCalledPrep]

It's okay... simple, chic, classic. I preferred the Dior logo saddle bags, though. This one.. I don't know, there's just something about it that dosen't shag me.

 

[meowmix]

I agree with SoCalledPrep... I think the logos actually work better with these saddle bags. I don't like the way the leather looks and I don't like the gold hardware with this. I have a black nylon one from way back with silver hardware and they work well together... but I don't like this leather.

Does anyone have a phone number to a Dior boutique in New York? I want to get the white saddle bag. Thanks
