Re-Discover a Chloe in your Closet: fall in love with your bag all over again

Great thread, hmwe46!!

I did exactly this about a month ago when I was packing for a 4 week work trip to Asia. I was thinking about which Balenciaga to bring, but instead I found my aubergine metallic Paddy in my closet and brought her instead. In the middle of my trip, I bought a Bay.

Well, my trip was extended by another month (!) so I've had lots of time with my Chloes. I am enjoying them, but I am also missing my Bals too... (no tomato throwing, please!!)

I wore my blanc all weekend

Cute bag...

Whiskey 06! (proves 06 leather can be just as sweet!)

Mint, that whiskey is positively purfect!!

mintpearl · May 8th, 2007, 12:19 PM

^ thanks sooo much~ hmwe! To think I almost got rid of it...for bbags! hehe--u understand right???

But while taking pics, I fell in LOVE again and this thread helped me realize that we should enjoy the purses we have a while longer before buying new ones!

Thanks for starting this awesome thread!!!

I LOVE LOVE ur VANILLA paddy! Is it easy to keep clean? She is so gorgeous! Never was into light colored paddies til I saw the vanilla!

ali w · May 8th, 2007, 02:58 PM

^ Love your front pocket paddy!!!

mintpearl · May 8th, 2007, 04:01 PM

thanks ali w!

She was a consolation gift from my DH

(bought from LVR), because I wasn't ever going to have a DD named Chloe~after we found out that my third child was going to be a boy too! So I said, "you can get me a CHLOE paddington instead!!!"

hmwe46 · May 8th, 2007, 09:41 PM

^^^ Too funny!!!!

So the vanilla was only in my hands very very briefly. She is on to a wonderful PFer now.

But my blanc is amazingly easy to wear and keep clean!!! Not all ALL like my 05 work which is either going to be bagged and never used or just thrashed.

totally gorge.

Great thread - it's so easy to forget the beauties we already have and lust after ones that we don't have, rather than appreciate what we already own!
Lost? I am!

I'm going to get whiskey out for an airing...i'm having trouble finding shoes/boots to match at the moment though. Can't find seem to find whiskey anything anywhere.

(Other than Bell's scotch

)

hmwe46 · May 10th, 2007, 01:45 PM

LOL, scotch is good!!

How about a pair of neutral metallic shoes?? I have been wearing my bronze Dior flats with everything!! I think they would look yummy with whiskey.
