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

Tracking my bag use and I've used 4 so far this month. Hopefully I can get some more into the rotation. Sales are slow. I got fed up with a few things that haven't been moving and listed them for $1 (plus shipping). That may backfire :p but at least hopefully they'll sell and I can move on. Need to list a few more things. Played around with my WOC and it definitely fits everything I need it to, so that's good but I'm still on the fence. Not sure if I'm worried about the lambskin, want something more under the radar or what.
 
OK ladies, I need your help. My MK Hamilton in violet. I don't know what to pair it with. It's kind of an odd shade of purple, I don't know. It's not a dressy shade, like plum or lavender or royal purple. It's like a bright purple. The flash made it brighter than it actually is, it's not quite that bright. What could I wear it with?

I like the violet! It's a funky pop of color. I think it would look great with navy, gray & mustard tones

thedseer good work rotating bags! This new year so far I've worn my Mahina XS, DA Speedy, Bal City, Longchamp Le Pliage & tiny Coach crossbody. I tend to reach for my crossbody & handheld bags first but the Longchamp is perfect for bad weather days or when I'm at dance/yoga/the pool

Making that list though seems obvi I need to take my Sukey & LV pochette out for a spin this week 😍
 
I am using my Christmas gift bag today :) It is MK medium bowler bag in claret. Love the color!

LOVE THIS COLOR!!!

The blue Burberry leather tote I was eying is sold out on the Canadian website. It was not meant to be... I guess I'll just have to keep looking at other brands. This is the second blue purse I missed out on because I wanted to actually save up my fun money for instead of dipping into my savings. Can't win :(


Oh I think I know which bag it is. Almost got it but was too big for me. Bummed for you but I know someThing good will come.

Fingers crossed they fetch a good price.

Muted greens (khaki, camo colors), greys, black, navy blue even. Cool colors. Fun color! I have a MbMJ bag in a brighter shade of purple I have a hard time with at times.

Everyone with me!

Just say no to final sale!

Lol. Closed a window right now and feel really good.


Good job!!!
 
Thanks for all the pochette love!!! And fyi, it can fit more than I have pictured... it's like a tiny Mary Poppins bag!


egg- I got that BS hand lotion in a little gift set (that was half off after xmas!). It's perfect for popping in my bag. And I like your cute little Coach bag!

jenny- That's how I picture my dogs... in heaven running around young and healthy. :hugs:

dc- Sometimes I carry the pochette like a clutch, but I usually have it on my shoulder. Great job shopping your closet!

lou- Great jacket! Can't wait to see a mod shot. And congrats on the LV... that's a great style! Looking forward to pics!

clevercat- Definitely give yourself ample time to grieve and wait to make any major decisions right now. Donating to an animal charity shop sounds like a wonderful idea! :hugs:

bake- Cool print on the LC! And great job purging/organizing!

tuuli- Gorgeous color on the MK!

astro- Sorry about missing the bag, but something better will come along! Plus, if you can just buy it outright without dipping into your savings, it'll make the purchase all that much sweeter!

paculina- Love your hamilton! I have the selma mini messenger in violet. I usually wear mine with gray, black or navy blue (my winter wardrobe is pretty neutral). I plan on wearing it with more fun colors during the summer.
 
^ good job bake!

Thanks for the encouragement, everyone! :)

Beautiful color, paculina! I would let this bag be the focal point of your outfit. For casual outings I could see it paired with an ivory, light grey or light pink top and dark wash or black jeans. Dressier I could definitely see it with all black or a light colored top and a black skirt or pants. I think you have a lot of options with this bag!
