I know the feeling as I'm permanently in black uggs until the weather breaks.

The pin fits just barely, now I would have to use super flat card case and keep my phone in my hand. Idk about this one

I say return. But take my opinion with a grain of sale. I'm really on the warpath about bags that aren't functional and easy to wear. I'm irritated from yesterday when my medium flap wasn't working with my stuff. It and my LV LockMe II are my smallest bags and they should be glad they are so flipping adorable. I don't like having to compromise with what I want to take in a bag. I'm actually looking at larger than my normal bags for my workhorses.

Spark,

You like the medium Chanel more than the jumbo...I just fainted. I think the medium is so small on me but agree jumbo can look little large.

The jumbo single flap is perfectly sized for what I want to carry. And Chanel flaps are spot on for my personal style - from casual to cocktails. So I love them. But I feel the proportion of the medium is slightly better for my frame than the jumbo. And really, I only feel this issue of the jumbo being "big" with the red one. It's loud. So I have to make sure it works with my outfit.

Ok wow, everything matches sparkletastic, from Clothing to SLG to chain detail. I am impressed. Tell me you don't do this every day?

Actually, I don't usually match my SLG's to my outfits because I'm not an SLG girl so I don't want a bunch of wallets or pouches. All of my SLG's are black, pink and / or silver so they always coordinate in my bag.

But with every thing else I wear (clothes, bags, jewelry, sunnies, shoes) I always coordinate down to the little details. I love fashion and it's fun for me. So I buy with a mind for what will pick up details in other items and have fun picking out and setting out my clothes out the night before. :smile: I'm getting much more mindful with my purchases so they work together like I want them to. This thread is a big help.

Nothing like renovations and packing to make you realize that shopping your closet right now is the right thing to do.

It's only minor but I gotta pack up all my stuff. I'm already stressed. How will my bags keep shape in storage? Will they be secure and dry? Ahh.

Although I have not been the most active participant on this thread; I have been "liking and lurking".

I also managed to complete the one brand challenge this week.

Can you bring them to bf till after?

That worries me more because he has small dogs who are very nosy! Haha. Otherwise I would've left them with him.

My dog luckily doesn't care for bags or shoes. She sniffs them but that's it.

But anyway, I've put them in storage boxes, stuffed with scarves and their pillows. SLGs and scarves are with them, so I'll just have to monitor this box during renovations.


No more big bags. Lol.

Carrying my Hermes Bolide yesterday for lunch and then again somewhere else for dinner and then today my Bolide and stone McQueen shopper to go shopping/cafe.

I see what's happening :rolleyes: . I'm just using my usual AW rotation - but just the brown/tan bags. Tomorrow I really will try to take a brown bag I haven't carried for a long time. Perhaps my Chloe Bay??? (Does anyone actually remember those anymore LOL)?
