lol.... my partner is always telling me "You're going to get robbed" but I keep pushing mynluck . I was in Bev Hills for 5days so of course I had to bling it up! Yeah, replicas just don't do it for me. For me like you said, it's not about other people thinking it's real or fake it's about me knowing it is. I've even had a vendor offer to make me replicas of all my pieces and they make great stuff. I just cant. Oh, do I ever love shopping for new things on vacation! Especially LA lol! I picked up this baby on Rodeo and I'm just in love! I also bring a three set LV luggage along on my travels. Usually my strapped messenger LV, LV duffle, and large roller LV. I'm addicted to the good stuff lol... Even so, We had to ship home three pretty sizable boxesOVincze|1428473382|3858404 said:I am late to the game and your trip is over by now Diamondboy but I am the same way you and Missy are, I feel the same about replicas. Somehow I would feel different and they would not make me feel the same way, my real jewelry does. I want to be able to look at them even while travelling. Besides, I want my own jewelry that I am used to and I would miss otherwise. That said, I do not take many pieces when I travel; generally one or two sets but even this is way more than most take. I guess I am used to carrying pieces around and what is difference between doing it locally or elsewhere. It is just as likely that I get robbed locally.
Of course this also depends on where you are going, you want real jewelry if you are going to posh places and it depends on the occasions and events you would attend. Generally, when I travel it is either for business or combined and I should wear nice jewelry.
Missy I am shocked you travel so lightly. What do you do with all your boots and beautiful dresses? I have to admit that I am a disaster when I travel. You do see me from a mile away too. I generally have two huge luggages and then also dresses hanging on my ears... When I come home it is worse as I tend to acquire some nice new stuff while on vacay. Packing both ways but especially back is a real difficult job as luggages do not want to close. I guess I am like a comedy when I travel. I wish I could travel lightly. I have tried it but then I left so much stuff home I needed to go shopping right away. Sorry, I am a bad example and also I am definitely one of those very girlie girls and my vacays are not hiking trips. If I went hiking, cycling, etc., then it would be different.
Here's a snap of my new bracelet
