Yes! I love the Damier Azur graffiti-looking neverfull and the Valentine's Day collection looks AMAZING!!

Forgot to quote the post on what bag we'd get rid of but just can't, and mine would definitely be my leopard speedy. I've had it for a few years now and it got a good amount of use in Colorado (where it's sunny basically all the time lol). Now, DH and I are in Seattle which is a huge change and I think a big part of the reason why my LV canvas bags get used constantly since I don't stress about them getting wet. The leopard speedy is made of "jacquard textile" and is soft like plush carpet and I have no idea how it would be in the rain, so it just sits at home looking pretty. Definitely don't have the heart to get rid of it yet, so it might just be one of those trophy pieces.

Also, I bought one of my unicorn bags for myself for Christmas. I had one a LONG time ago and sold it and have been kicking myself ever since. It's the Treesje Magnolia in Oceano. I don't even know if Treesje is around anymore, but that bag is so adorable to me and will definitely get use (even in the rain!). I've had an ebay alert set up for this bag for more than a couple of years, so it does feel good to finally get it again.

Dear, would you kindly enlighten me if Pillow and First's capacity are basically the same? Or if one is a bit bigger than the other?

I will mostly showcase an SLG each saturday/sunday. I will change if I can as well since I have multiples of several items, like key pouches and pochettes.

@eggtartapproved @HopelessBagGirl, I would like to stay at the palace too; for extended visits. I may wander off the grounds a few times, for only a few, well thought out purchases. [emoji2]

I know that eggtart has the willpower; I am hoping that with some help, anyone who wants to be a more prudent shopper can be one! [emoji162][emoji152][emoji876][emoji724]

Egg, HBG & Mimmy - I know you can do it!! :flowers: Just take it a week or month at a time and keep rotating your bags so you see what lovelies you already have.

Also, I've seen that most of us who survived a ban - whether it be a planned month or year - had a goal in mind to keep us focused. It could be to sell of some bags during a time, to save for a special bag or anything else. So you may want to have a goal or reward to keep you motivated. :smile:

I'll be in my underground crypt on Pause Peninsula. We can Skype back and forth from our compounds when the temptations get too bad. :lol:

I like your suggestions, Sparkletastic! Santa brought me a bag for Christmas. This should quell the bag shopping urges for awhile. This is the one that I really wanted. I had previously posted that I would only buy 1 or 2 bags in 2017. So I am now making the commitment to only buy ONE bag in 2017. I am planning on waiting until about mid year; we'll see how it goes.
