Let's fess up ladies~ what other purchases have you made recently- that's NOT tano?!

justjulie13 · Aug 7th, 2008, 03:36 PM

I've been debating this bag for a while now, but I finally went ahead and got it....the Foley+Corinna City Clutch in fuchsia! I really hope I like it. I figure you can never have too many pink bags.

I am not buying anything that isn't Tano these days!

I'll fess up and in my defense, I stated somewhere here that I hadn't decided that small leather goods were included in my ban (which will probably be broken anyways once MHB gets their full Fall shipment). I just bought a magenta hot pink leather Coach french wallet/purse. I actually meant to buy this about a 2 months ago, then Coach changed to their Fall colors and it was not longer available. Thank goodness for eBay.

The Hayden Harnett sale has been crazy!! I bought 2 bags from HH, Tulah Ray Satchel in berry from the Nordstrom sale coming in mid Sept, and a gorgeous patent blackberry bag from Danier (Canadian leather store). The patent bag is my first patent and I am in *love*.

I also need to finalize my IGNES order and decide on what colors I want. Ack, I am so banned!!

I haven't bought any new purses in a while. Since I am now on a stricter budget, I am not supposed to buy anything.

So I guess for now, I need to settle for everyone else's purse porn.

I need to get myself back on a strict budget, too! We'll just have to look at everyone else's stuff.

ughhhhh I had no idea... I hate when my bags look like some version of some "famous" bag... I'll keep it if I love it but otherwise it's going back! Thanks for the heads up! I like originality!

If you are into originality then you might want to stay away from Melie Bianco. The majority, if not all, of her bags are "designer inspired". The one you posted is inspired by the LV Mahina. I have also seen "inspired" L.A.M.B. Carlisle clutches, LV Stephen, Jimmy Choo Mahala and Ramona bags, Dior Gaucho's, Prada Fringes, Coach Carly's and Chanel Flaps just to name a few. They are nice bags for people who can't afford the real thing but like the style but not if you are looking for an original bag.

TygerKitty · Aug 11th, 2008, 06:35 PM

^^ Thanks for the heads up! I had no idea since I'm not an LV fan (cept for vernis! omg! lol) but yes, I definitely like a bit more originality! That's the frustrating thing when you are buying non-designer brands... you don't really want to end up with a "designer inspired" bag unknowingly! I know I could poke around TPF but that would take ages to find which bag looks like the bag I might buy blah blah... so frustrating! So again, thanks for all the info!

I thought the Minilisa would be my next bag purchase...but they haven't arrived at the boutique here yet.

So...in the meantime, I took a trip to the Coach outlet and picked up this beauty!!! A teal Coach Gigi!

musicgirl · Aug 12th, 2008, 10:59 PM

^^I love that teal bag!!!
