I want to get rid of more bags.
I have 3 bags up on the chopping block, but I need to find the suitable taker for each of them. I still can't find that yet. I hope to be able to find them soon.And I also want to spend less. The end of the year is near and sales are bubbling up everywhere. I don't want to spend more than I should this year.
I already got gifts for DH, bros, and soon-to-be sister in law.
Only something for my mom and dad and my colleagues then I should be fine. I hope I can resist all the temptation until new year.
I'm sure you'll come up with something you'll be happy with for your brother's wedding.I'm having somewhat a hard time, actually.I'm kinda too big for the garment that I own so it's likely that I'll have to get everything new.
I will definitely update on my new house.
I usually get my charms from street venders. Check out the area where teenagers usually hang out. They have cute stuff, if that's what you're after. Often, the quality is great, too.I'm not big on expensive charm so... I wouldn't say Fendi bag bug. I mean it's cute, but too expensive for me.
And you really make me regret on not jumping on that Venice tote.
Some co-workers sometimes ask, but I know they do not do so to judge. They are plain and simple curious/they want to gauge if that certain bag is within their means to buy. I remember one time, the driver who I requested to claim 2 Massaccesi bags (1 package) for me at the post office where Express international mails are claimed got to talk to the secretary about how much I paid. And that was not even for the bag! It was only for customs duty! I think the secretary was shocked at the amount. And I didn't clarify that that was only for customs duties and taxes, on top of the amount I paid for the bag.Well, I have one guy friend that sometimes I'm comfortable telling him the price if he ask. He rarely ask though, but that's because we go shopping together.And he never judge. Lucky that he's not married yet. I guess if your friend handle it in the humorous way, it should go well. I hope he won't give his wife the hard/uncomfortable time.
I'm curious about the costume!
We didn't have Halloween when I was growing up. So I never got to dress up. I would want to do it one day.
How did you manage to be a sushi??! Lol! Goodluck on your outfit this season. My goal is to stop anymore bag purchases. But then again, as Tuuli pointed out there is your Big Friday sale to which we have access (well, not all sales). Just today, I signed up for a group bespoke Massaccesi bag. I wanted to buy the same bag next year. But now it's 20% off, so how can I not take advantage! It's my Christmas gift to myself! November and December should be a total ban!!
I'm late in gift buying this year. I buy for staff I work with at the office. Normally, by September I'm done. These are just token gifts btw. To date, bought nothing yet. And then for family, nothing yet too!! Boy, I think I have to start!I want to get rid of more bags.
And I also want to spend less. The end of the year is near and sales are bubbling up everywhere. I don't want to spend more than I should this year.

I hope you find buyers for your bags! With my purchases this October, I have decided to list a few more bags, but I think I can only get to do that next week. I'm going to my hometown this weekend. Here in my country, we celebrate All Saints Day on November 1. (So many years ago, Halloween was not big here, it was only All Saints Day that we celebrated. This is the time to visit our dearly departed. Normally there is a "fiesta"-like atmosphere in the cemeteries.)
Well, talking about my weekend trip, in my mind I have already been thinking which bag(s) to bring aside from my travel bag - likely my Massaccesi Minerva which I want to show my sisters and my MZ Wallace crossbody for the trip to the 'eternal garden' (one name we use for the cemetery).

Good luck with the three bags on the chopping block.
I have started the holiday gift shopping, but mostly for my daughter. I bought the older boys and my dh each a pair of brooks brothers pants and the my younger son some Dr. Martens . I am trying to wait for good sales like I got the pants on.
I think my Dd is slowly starting to like bags. The other day she texted me a photo of a kate spade bag she ordered at 75% off and then paid for it with gift cards she was given. Total cost to her nothing. I am so proud.
Thanks! I wish I could wear it but it feels a little too tight.I like this idea, too! You must look very pretty.

To be sushi, I wore a white tee and black trousers with a pink pillow that I had glued ribbon on to make it look like salmon. Tied it on me with a black sash to look like sashimi. Haha. That was fun. Then I clipped little felt pieces on my head to be ginger and wasabi.
I want to stop too, but....I have this gift card...I might get accessories like a scarf or jewelry instead.
That's awesome! Haha.
I need to get a couple more gifts. I should work on that instead of gifts for me all the time.
Still in my Mon Monogram Neverfull! I was going to switch, but it's a bag I'm trying to sell, so I might stay in my Neverfull a little longer.
Even if I don't switch, it's a Longchamp, so lowering cpw on those are so easy.

Me too. Wonder what took me so long to get this bag. Haha.
ETA: Caught a reveal of the LV City Steamer. It's gorgeous! Oh man. So many gorgeous bags coming out.
I know if I'm interested in the LV Capucines BB or the City Steamer PM, it's definitely a London purchase considering the price difference.
