Thanks LovedByChanel.
I'm completely new to this.

 

[LovedByChanel]

Alzna No problem && welcome : )
Ohhh DM I loved your modshot soooo much im thinking about getting a medium ps. Im really falling in love with that bag..To all the gals that have a black ps1 did you condition it at all or did you just let in break in on its own??

 

[xooey]

Girls, I have a problem. I've just noticed that my Black Flat Clutch with GGH's zipper pull tab has chipped off slightly. It's definitely not tarnish. There's just a black spot in the middle of the zipper pull tab (it looks like a spot of the gold coat flaked off?). What can I do? Any DIY solution? Thanks!

(On a separate note, I'm itching to get something from Jacky and hope to get free shipping. If anyone from Singapore wishes to get any item from Jacky, please PM me so that we can get free shipping. Thanks!)

Ok guys I am back after doing GST research...

Bagalicious this is for your mother in law (and myself haha)-
Best GST with GHW - pinkcherry1234. The rings and logo are spot on to the older GST model. The newer GST which J has tried to rep with the new thicker flat rivets where the rings are attached is totally off - the new GST logos are stitched on and do not look like a separate piece of leather like his CC logo. Catty's CCs on the GST look skinnier too. Go with pinkcherry1234!

Best GST with SHW - I think this would be Catty. I emailed her for more pics but the ring thickness looks correct to the older GST style along with the logo. pinkcherry's rings are much too thin for the SHW. J's rings look good but the CC logo looks too thin. Ugh!

Anyone have any opinions on the best GST with SHW?

No I sold it the handles are off on all of the rep mm's i've seen also the amarante color is not correct.. The real color is like a dark wine color that has a glow you can tell the difference below picture of mine && a real one from tpf.. The color is close but not close enough for me.. I might get a pm tho because I really love vernis almas and the handles are better on the pm imo..

This was my old alma picture is mine

 

[HandbagDiva]

the only question I would have is what can I do so that the inside zipper doesn't stick and glides easier? thank-you

I have always heard pencil lead helps...found this link for you :

Your wallet is so pretty!

danger mouse: for the info on leather revive vs. apple!

Does Leather Revive go a long way? How many bags do you think the smallest 250 ml bottle would cover? Would love the input from anyone who has used this product on T & D's bags before.

 

[candycandy]

handbagdiva - a bottle of 25o of leather revive will cover maybe 6 bags ( i don't remember ), but i do used it on most of my bags and it works very well.
it depends on how many covers will you make...
now i just received my second bottle to use on my noix/anthra bags.
so if you plan to use it maybe you should order the bigger bottle

about PINKCHERRY
i just purchased a chanel bag and a chanel wallet!!
i'm waiting for my tracking but i'll let you know when them will arrive and will review all the details

 

[Chupi]

DM: Bloody hell your ps1 modshot was good! I never thought about a medium ps1 but wow!

Jacky has told another lovely tfser he won't be making the luggage rocco I've no idea why, maybe he can't get the cupcake studs? Anyone who's interested please email him

 

[daisycx9]

candycandy - i'm abt to press the go button with pinkcherry too! what did you choose?

 

[madbalgal]

Hi ladies,

My 2 Mahina XLs from Jacky just arrived and I'm really having a headache now.. there are quite a few differences between the two that I'm not sure which one is more true to auth. I know many of you have their Mahinas so could you please let me know which one is better.

Differences:

1. The Black is alot lighter and leather is thinner and softer, more smooshy. The Ivory is thick, stiff and overall weight of bag is heavier.

2. Handles: The Ivory's handles are wider and the drop shorter than the Black. Seems like the Black is more true to auth here.. can anyone confirm this?

3. Ruches: The ruches at the side for the Ivory are alot more pronounced than the Black's.

4. Logo: The two logo imprints are very different..

would really appreciate any advice. thanks!

Hey Alzna

Jacky is def the one to goto for Mulberry Alexa's, catty's sizes are off.
T&D are by far the best for Balenciaga, that's the only bags they make however they only stock certain colours, if there is a particular colour you are after e-mail them and ask if they are making it.

 

[bagalicious]

Pinkprincess- Thanks for doing the research for me (us) I trust your knowledge as i know you are a Chanel and LV girl...Looks like pinkcherry will win the MIL gift vote then.
Thanks again Daisy for the suggestion of seller
LBC- Yeah in an out you know me.....I get having a break of posting and bag buying..But i do miss those gorgeous pics of you
Dangermouse- See what your mod pic has done! its caused a PS1 sensation
Candy- Will wait for a review of your PinkCherry purchases, I hope there GREAT for you.
Handbagdiva- I bought the leather revive as soon as candy told me about it, I like it, I bought the small size, I have used it on a couple of T+D bags...I have to be honest I didnt wrap it in cling film tho...maybe others who did can share there experience with a before and after pic of treatment?
Xooey- Cant you just dot a bit of the gold leaf paint on the gold zipper? I will PM you the color.

 

[alzna]

Thank you kimt

I made orders from both C and J. They were both very assisting with a first time buyer like myself.

 

[pinksequins]

lovedbychanel: oh noo! I can definitely see what you're talking about... such a gorgeous bag but not up to par.

I guess this amarante color difference probably applies to a lot of vernis reps. which is sad because i LOVE that color.

 

[PinkPrincess113]

bagalicious I just got more pics from Catty for the GST SHW. Not loving the leather. It looks too bubbly and the whole bag is creased everywhere. Pinkcherry's GSTs definitely look the best. I think I can overlook the rings being too thin on the SHW!

candycandy What Chanel bag did you get from pinkcherry?!

Pinkalicious..what do you think of the gold hardware on the GST? out of the 2 finishes what would you get?
