I will keep my fuchsia epi one, I just wanted something to rotate with besides the mini pochettes.
Ooh, good to know they are durable. I'll have to stalk the boutique for a color I like.

This bag makes me smile. First time for this bag to go to work today. While I have not gotten a strap for her, I have attached my pebbled Massaccesi strap for my mini Zhoe. The Starbucks tote holds my lunch kit. Btw, I got this in Starbucks in Thailand as a freebie, I'm not sure I've seen one here.
The Massaccesi strap is probably my more comfortable than the epi strap! That is a hard leather to wear for long periods of time.
Love the tassels!
I need a new lunch bag haha. Gotta go find me a cute one.
Oh... that's such a dreamy LC. But I understand. I'm sure the new owner would be over the moon.
Thanks for the tip on the Epi strap. I will not likely get one as the price also is too much.
Yes, exactly this. I have to have carefree bags. The struggle is finding ones I love and am willing to let get grungy.
I don't have any nylon bags. It's funny, I was just googling options last week. I don't like Longchamps at all so that's not an option. From a quick google images search, I liked some of the Kipling bags Kisuromax suggested. I also like Prada nylon. I had 2 of those but sold them because they weren't the right sizes / styles. I may look to get one of those again.
When it's rainy / snowy, I wear my patent, caviar or saffiano leather bags. So, I've never needed to do the bag in a bag. I didn't even know that was a "thing" til TPF.
A bag in bag is also quite popular with the Japanese. I'd say from what I saw there.
Try Le Sportsac, too.
Yeah... that's why I can never live with only premiere. I love my non-premiere and actually everything. [emoji16] Or maybe I just simply a hauler. [emoji38][emoji848]
I have been looking for a Silk'In compact wallet in a leather color and silk lining color that I like for some time now. I think when I see it, I will know that it's the one! [emoji7]
They are real work-horses, very sturdy and light weight.
They are great for camping, travelling on the light, kids sleep-over, etc

Since it's the end of Q1, I wanted to check my full year goals to see how I'm doing.
• 28 bag maximum
This is no longer a goal of mine. I realized I like and need variety. So while I'll hold to my standard of only keeping bags I use, I won't have a collection maximum.
• Sell 15 bags: 13 purgatory, 2 in collection
Sold 7 bags: 7 purgatory, 0 in collection
• Buy no more than 2 workhorse bags + 1 bonus bag
Bought 1 workhorse + 1 bonus
• Have a 100% success rate on purchases

The new owner totally is. My friend's sister actually sent me a picture of it with her in her office. I'm happy when things go to good homes haha.
It really was a lot but at the time there weren't many strap options. With straps being an it thing right now, you totally can find some to go amazingly with your Alma!Thanks for the tip on the Epi strap. I will not likely get one as the price also is too much.
I'm eyeing one from Longchamp.
We have to consider leather color as well as silk pattern, so the hunt will take awhile!
Hope you find the one you want too!
I asked a friend to get me that Longchamp strap when she traveled a few months back, but she didn't find it for me. It is a great option!

0 slgs out I wasn't doing the 100 percent success rate or I would have failed already as I sold the brown bag that didn't work for me. I replaced it with the Bally bernina tote which I have already worn twice. My thing is not to exceed the allotted amount of space and that is doing well. I have room for a few bags if need be.
