Very pretty MBMJ bags eehlers and mimmy! Fran is on my "want" list and that green is gorgeous!
Great willpower dooney and Mimmy! We went to the outlets over the weekend too and I did not buy any bags but found really cute AGL flats in Nordstrom Rack. Bright pink
My bag today was my most unlucky bag ever. It is Liebeskind Estonia in taupe. I have used it 3 times, first time it was heavily stained by cookie crumbs, second time was smeared with butter and today it got wet in rain. Amazing but I have managed to clean it up every time and even if some discoloration is left then it isn't too obvious because of the leather.
Liebeskind looks like it has such thick and soft leather - similar to Linea Pelle. Does the leather make it heavy? Sounds like it's a real trooper!
Took Fran out grocery shopping this afternoon. I love this bag. The black works well with casual clothes but will also look perfect dressed up with work clothes. And it is just so functional and comfortable. Loving my KS Lacey, too, the leather is so soft!

Pretty green!
Haha looks like everyone was at the outlets this weekend. Yay for not buying!

Lucky! All the AGL I find is refurbs in not so exciting colors.
Your Liebeskind bag looks very unique. I like the unique style with a good neutral color.
Tuuli, Eehlers, Mimmy - love the bags you pulled out this weekend.
Dcooney - great willpower to stick to your plan!
Bake - can't wait to see it done.

Pink shoes are always cute! Pics! Love the Estonia! So impressed that it has survived such calamities so well!
Beautiful!
For me, this was not a particularly good month, but it has not been all that bad either. One bag sold (my last BV) and one bag coming in (Kate Spade Nylon Maryanne [actually hasn't gotten to me yet]). I have a few things listed for sale, but sales have been really slow for me lately. But, hopefully things will turn around in July. I have requested direct purchase offers from an online site on my RMs and, while I doubt that they will accept all of them (some are not in the best condition), hopefully they will take at least some of them.
Today I carried one of my old travel vacation bags. A Nine West cross body. I use it when vacationing and want to be worry free and hands free. I keep thinking about getting a replacement for this bag but I haven't seen anything that fits the bill. It's a perfect size and holds everything while keeping a small size. The exterior pocket can fit my phone. Depending where I am traveling, I don't like to bring attention to myself so I prefer a simple non descript bag.
Do you have bags that you generally use for traveling or do you just use whatever hits your fancy?

I use lower end crossbody bags. Last trip I used my MbMJ preppy Natasha. It was bright, but the logo was printed on the leather but you couldn't read it from afar. It had a zipper flap pocket, where I kept my wallet and passport. The main compartment was large enough to fit an umbrella, camera, and water bottle. The pocket kept maps and ticket stubs.
Now I use my Coach Madeline, no obvious logo, but because I want to go to high end shops and restaurants, I didn't want something too casual. The pocket under the flap will be used for maps and ticket stubs. Inside zipper pocket for securing my passport. My wallet will be underneath my umbrella, camera, and water bottle, but it still isn't a bag easy to open because of the structured top of the Madeline. It's boxy and when you want to open it you have to pull apart the sides so it'll stay open. Otherwise it closes again. It's hard for me to describe lol. Also, it has multiple ways to carry with the adjustable strap.
Travel bag criteria: crossbody, leather, no obvious logos, or ability to turn the bag around to hide logo. Added criteria of being able to dress up or down. Various ways to carry is a plus.
Tote of course, is the trusty large Longchamp LP. Even when stuffed full, it still fits under the seat in front of me. Worry free, water resistant.

Usually I use my mff coach bags - I have a matching tote and cross body, and I have a Kate spade travel wallet that holds passports, boarding asses, and touristy pamphlets. For my carry-on I use a guess satchel and as an alternative day bag. They're all pretty low-key.
