2015 resolution - shopping from my own bag and wallet collection. Any one else?

Tuuli -love your Stam.

Well my little Dooney &Bourke worked out wonderful today. Everything fit easily and was easy to get in and out of too. Who knew this little nylon bag would work so well. It has a nice long strap drop so it fit with ski jacket on. I was tempted to order the leather one originally but it is a bit smaller and so is the strap drop.

Thank you all so much for the compliments on my new pup! He's definitely my new baby!

This week I'm carrying my LV Artsy. I'm obsessed with this bag. I love the lining and the 6 slip pockets! View attachment 2852564

Very nice! It's probably my favorite LV!

For those of you who followed this thread last year; you may remember I posted a couple of vintage Coach bags; one is even made in Italy. I had not used this bag at all in 2014; had not even put it in my Stylebook app. Was planning on selling it, but saw that others had sold, but for very low prices! So I put it in my Stylebook closet and will see if I use it much before I make a final decision. This is really a hard bag to read the creed on ... made in USA!

That is cute! I stick with the 12 month philosophy. That is unless you use it for those once a year occasions when you want to be hands free. Then it's a maybe keep it for 6 more months. Those low prices make it hard to want to sell after the fees are taken out.

Phew this thread moves so quickly! I think I am all caught up now


I was so excited to use my Borough yesterday for my first day back at work but when I went out to start my car, nothing happened... anyways, ended up needing a new battery and that is all over and done with now (thanks to my dear hubby) so I am at work today with my borough! Loving using and looking at her so far. I do remember on Megs "purseonals" blog post about this bag that she said one of the only downfalls of it was that it was to organized. As crazy as that sounded I completely agree with it haha. I am just so used to chucking everything into the pit of my bag so kind of organizing her was weird for me. But regardless, absolutely loving her


Here she is, perched on my desk.

Lol looks like I forgot to move the calculator haha. Sorry about that.

I agree the thread moves very fast! I'm really missing a lot! Cute purse and the calculator just proves you are working hard!

This sounds like a great philosophy .

I'm still trying, to be honest! I've turned it inside out to air it out which has helped A LOT but I think I'm going to try the coffee beans / baking soda trick to tackle the rest




Tell me more about your magic purse organizer!

*lays on floor, props chin on elbows*

You're cute! I purchased from Amazon it's the PurseN Purse Organizer. I'll snap some shots for you. It's the best thing ever! Not only that it keeps the inside of your bags clean. It goes from my Speedy 30 to my Siracusa to my Artsy!

I love the gray borough and stam. I'm thinking gray may need to be my next color (but not before April!!).

So glad this worked out for you!

I've been searching for the perfect gray bag for years now. To me, a gray bag is like a nude pump - the perfect shade is different for everyone and just as hard to find (at least for me!). I love the gray in the borough but sadly as much as I love the borough, the style doesn't work for me =(

I agree. I only have two RMs--a hardwood MAC and a BBW MAM, and I'm keeping those two forever. Fantastic leather and really well designed. I miss the good old days of RM.

I agree. I only own one RM, a Swing. Heavy chain, but wonderful leather. Unless I can find another RM with smooshy leather, I will hold onto this one!

This Borough is gorgeous! It took me awhile to get used to the organization, but I like it now. I was brave and took it to CA last year. It was a great travel bag.

Love this bag Tuuli! Makes me want a Stam!

Glad it worked, dcooney! I'm sure you rocked it and your Harrod's tote like a celebrity!

Thanks! I think I will do this. If I don't end up using it more, I plan to donate or gift it. I would rather do this than go through the trouble of selling it for a low price!

Oh... Didn't think of the mini. Will look... For fun that is.

Yes just for fun

Beautiful bag! Don't worry, I'm used to unorganised bags, too. 😉
