I'm quoting myself because I realized I made a mistake. I didn't have 4 in. That was in October! I only had 1 in this November (purchased November 29). I thought I was gonna complete the month without a purchase.
DC - congrats on your sales!! Way to go!
Vink - maybe you don't really need the wallet, but maybe you just want to shop in general? I say this because if I recall correctly you are a one wallet gal like me.
Bake - If I saw a small Bayswater on sale the past week I would have probably gotten it. It is in my wishlist...if the price is right.
I love pink bags, but I already have 2, so I would choose a different color for myself. But petal pink sounds so pretty!

No worries! I thought I did not remember you getting 4 this month. So I feel better too because that means I am not forgetting stuff.
I decided since I counted the sport only bag as an in , I am going to count the fabric craft messenger as out. I had bought it at street fair and it is s large tapestry type fabric that I was going to carry sketch books in but never did. I discovered I prefer to carry smaller sketch books so the huge bag was not nessesary .
You have a great memory! Much better than mine.
Rainy day bag - Nothing specific because we really have a rainy season but I don't normally walk in the rain. The most is a few meters going to the parking lot. I mentioned here before that I am comfortable bringing my older RM MAM when it is raining.
A related rainy day bag story (not sure if I already shared this) -- When I got my LV in 2012, I used it for the first time to go to a family gathering set up for us to watch the boxing match of our fave Manny Pacquiao. I just got there and was getting stuff out of the car when it suddenly rained! And the vachetta part of my bag got some water droplets!! They stained my bag for good!! Maybe not even an hour of first use... :cry:

It snowed on me the first time I wore my LV petit bucket. I freaked out and put my coat over it while I got some snow on me. Luckily it did not stain .
Oh good it did not stain! I wanted to cry when it happened to me.
I am sorry that happened to you. Has it faded now that the vachetta has darkened?
I've not taken a look at it lately but I know it is still visible. Btw, another observation. I do not use my LV a lot, but the vachetta still darkens a little even in storage.
I guess they oxidize a bit. I am to the point that I will listen to a weather report before I take any bag with me for the day that has vachetta.
It doesn't rain often or for long periods of time, so it's kind of a hassle to change bags spur of the moment for me. But my Chanel and Hermes are reserved for summer due to their style and color, however, it has rained randomly in the summer, so I just have to take precautions.
The will oxidize a bit in storage, but more so with light.
I've taken my Pochette Metis in the random rains we have here, but the patina has set in so there's no marks.
