Just picked up my classic black 2.55 from Jacky in the post!!! It's AMAZING, but hoping I wont have any snap trouble like the other ladies, but like beavercall said, one the outerflap is closed, you can't tell!! Love this classic look with an edgy downtown chic outfit! Pics to come when I take her out for a spin!!!

 

[wannabemk]

ill take some mod shots when my sister gets home so she can take them for me. im horrible of taking them myself in the mirror

 

[laboheme]

laboheme, you are my new favorite poster. Please stay awhile! Will you accept this rose?

thanks BC!!....this is like The Bachelor tv show! ...and the bag drama reminds me of _The Sneetches_ by Dr. Seuss. Everytime I read it to my children I think about this whole designer goods 'vrai ou faux' - 'worthy or unworthy' issue.

Talking about BV cabas, I am wondering if Jacky will every consider making this style? Does anyone know if this style was ever made?

 

[shopholic]

laboheme - I love to read your posts too.

wow refreshing hermes talk on the thread. I really want a Lindy. It is in the $5000k range, not that I care. I'll wear anything and don't care who thinks its fake. They probably think my auth are fake too so who cares.

Any advice on the Lindy as far as togo vs. chevre? The stitching should be /// on any hermes correct? I also want to get Birkin but i may wait for that simply because the Lindy is more my style.

BY I just saw your xxl mahina in the pic thread. Im adding it to my wish list.

 

[wannabemk]

here are two shots. one with the bag on my shoulder. im 5'6" for reference and the other i put my ugg infront of the bag for size reference

1%world, I love the Lindy too, but I think I'm going to shy away from Hermes. Well, atleast until I hit twenty (and that's in about a year, turn 19 this month!) . I don't think the Hermes lifestyle is one I can believe in.

wannabemk, it looks wonderful ! Not too big at all. Oh man, that's being added to the lust list with a bullet. I it! Although, I love the way the PVC glistens, I'll probably get the tweed. How is the material feel? Satisfying quality would you say?

 

[1%world]

wannabemk that bag is outstanding! Dammit now I want one! Adding to list.
sanitizedfashion, wow to be your age again (im jealous) I think 20 will be the perfect age for your Lindy. As I said, its not "that" expensive, one could conceivably save up for it and be gifted the rest right?

 

[jaydotcee]

Sooo, I had taken a loonng haitus from the thread ever since my anthra debacle and also due to financial constraints and I recently came back on and I have been trying to catch up on over 100 pages of posts!! (Crazy ladies!!) And of course, now I have a miilleeee long wish list. Shelleybean, I think I need a spreadsheet like yours at last!!

Everyone's amys look fantastic!

BY: I am in loveee with the patina on your Stephen!
Bag: glad you finally picked up a black city! naomi looks great AS does your ps1! Glad you finally made up with Jacky - I knew he'd come around. who can resist you?
Pink: i love love love love LOVE (x1000) your prada!! i wish sooo badly that jacky had it in stock because I'm putting in an order with him. Unfortunately it'll have to wait until further notice.

I can't remember everyone's new purchases off the top of my head, its been a big jumble of 100 pages. I thought I was for sure down for the ps1 but in reality I think it would be too much bag for me, but seeing the new mulberry alexa's was love at first sight!! I just hope Jacky doesn't go all "I am only making it in large" on me!!

xooey: your chanel 2.55 is gorgeous............

 

[jaydotcee]

xooey!! i just saw your photos of the chanels and they are AMAZING! can you post some mod shots of the caviar? (and the lambskin!)

also did you ask jacky to prep the bags in any way before he shipped them? and did you specially request a particular shape/features or did he just pick that one out for you? (sorry for all the questions!!)

 

[ViaSarah]

xooey The Chanels look lovely and the leather is definitely TDF

littleblacksheep Congrats!! Can't wait for the pics and I hope you upload them soon!

wannabemk Your XL looks great on you and sorry about the creases. My sister and I debated whether or not I should get the XL because of its size but I definitely want it, now that I saw it on you (luckily we're the same height).

The Chanels from Jacky look gorgeous and I really want to buy one for myself . Can any of you ladies do me the favor and possibly PM me J's site? (Sorry for the request).

 

[PinkPrincess113]

xooey thanks for the reviews. i love your chanels!

wannabemk i dont think it looks too big on you actually. i think you pull it off quite nicely! is it super super shiny irl?

jaydotcee welcome back! get the prada from catty, it's worth it!! not to be an enabler or anything but the leather has smooshed up and broken in softly, i must take pics!

 

[123xalady]

Hello 123xalday - I have only positive things to say about the PS1.
The leather is very good, it's the X large, but you know that, I don't find it heavy to carry, i dont think fanbao or paperbirds have said they find it heavy but I know pixellated has.
It looks very close to the authentic, I have been to barneys and seen and touched the real deal, and I can say with pride that this is as good as you will probabaly get anywhere for the money! I am thrilled with mine.
I know fanbao loves it as she is getting another one, So i think thats say's a lot on how good it is.

ColeyX3 -(On top of the fact that people have posted reps over there and had them gushing all over them and their purchase. I find that to be HILARIOUS. )

Coley-Have you read my autobiography?
I agree with that 100%

thanks so much for your thoughts! I tried to give you karma again haha tfs wouldn't let me

 

[kimair]

wannabemk that chanel looks great on you!! is the chain strap heavy or hurt on your shoulders?

 

[giggetta]

here are two shots. one with the bag on my shoulder. im 5'6" for reference and the other i put my ugg infront of the bag for size reference

what do you think about wear this bag cross body?? is very big but is wonderful!! good choise IMO

 

[wannabemk]

pinkprincess113 >>yes the bag is super shiny in real life
kimair>> i havent carried the bag alot since i just recieved it today but there is def some weight to the chain. you can tell by just holding the chain in your hand
giggetta>> i think if i wear it cross body its a little too long for me

and thank you everyone for all your wonderful comments! looking at the bag on me in person it looked so much bigger than in the pic i posted. im actually starting to love this bag now

 

[bagalicious]

xooey- Your channels look very nice.
I don't think your bag looks to big at all wannabemk you can carry it.
Thanks jaydotcee..good to see you back
123xalady- You're welcome..let us know if you get it.
laboehemme- yes merlin is a cutie, he makes any bag look good

After a long, agonising wait for my replacement Jumbo Caviar (I don't know if anyone remembers this, but J had sent me a defective one with tears on the leather handles, so I had to do an exchange), I finally have a perfect Jumbo Caviar with Silver HW!

I have used this bag once for work and it is PERFECT. It is roomy enough to be used as a daily, on-the-go bag and so, so sturdy! I don't have to worry about scratches on the leather, since the caviar leather is so durable and tough. I LOVE this bag!

This bag is truly a maintenance-free, fuss-free bag. When I store the bag, I don't need to stuff it as it's already a structured bag. I just store it in the dustbag and place it upright.

I've read in other forums that some ladies (who buy the auth) get a clip (?) from the Chanel boutique to shorten the straps. I feel that it's not necessary. The length is just fine when I carry the bag on the shoulders. I believe I've posted mod shots of this bag in this thread, so please do a search if you want to see how the bag looks like, modelled.

I know that previously, some of you had asked about the quilting on the sides of the bag. I've taken a couple of photos to show the quilting on both sides of the bag. Hope they show the sides clearly!

I have the same bag and I absolutely love it!!! It's my favorite from Jacky. I have an authentic Chanel Caviar and the leather is 99% similar
