Currently backtracking, trying to locate the last post that I stopped at but haven't found it yet :sweatdrop: But, I saw your Antigona in Mastic on my way thru the forum, so I just wanted to say that Mastic is a very lovely neutral! I saw it in the mini Antigona and it was so cute and lovely. But luckily I'm not tempted enough to buy it (enough buying issues as it is).
Thanks eiiv, I love the color. I understand the looking but not needing to buy everything I see and LOVE. [emoji41]
 
I only own one brown bag: this Valentino Rockstud tote, which I got "free" last summer with Nordstrom Notes. I don't carry it often, but it's useful on days when I want to carry a very lightweight open bag. The strap is adjustable, so it can be carried either on the shoulder or cross body. The leather is supple and smells fab! (Eek! Am I the only one who loves to sniff her handbags???)

I love to sniff the bags too, especially those that smells really, really nice.

Morning ladies; quick question.

Would you consider the color bordeaux/burgundy a versile color for a bag?
Of course. I consider it as a neutral color.

Another quick question ladies: can anyone recommend a cosmetics pouch that is the same size as the LV toiletry pouch 15?
1) I need to use it in smaller shoulder bags like the Chanel jumbo etc.
2) I would prefer UK pricing but open to ordering from the US if i see something that fits my needs.
3) Preferably Leather, no patent; would consider fabric if its a neutral color that wouldn't transfer color
4) Price range is £10 - £200

Thank u ladies [emoji8]

PS:
For reference; the toiletry 15 measures
5.9L *3.9H*1.6W inches; thats 14.9*9.9*4.0 in cms (by my calculation)
Have you looked on etsy maybe you can get something made to your exact specs.

Ok I decided to get a navy zip top small tote in pebbled leather for now. I really like it. It is perfect for all the rain we have been getting and am expecting more rain this weekend. I sold both my rainy day bags recently. I am going to try and hold off on a summery tote till I see one I really like in person. I might try and get some more clothes that go with my Bally tote and then I might not even need another bag.
 
Lovely collection, love your evelyne
Thanks kemi, she's a lightweight bag!

Morning ladies; quick question.

I consider it neutral and versatile.

Love the Lockit & Evelyne!
Thank you bakeacookie, great leather on both and I love the neutral colours.

here's my grey shawl in action today, i like the size a lot - i can wear it on a sleeveless top as a vest/jacket and it works perfectly well for the office
i didn't even expect the grey to work out so well for me!! :love:
Beautiful styling ksuromax!

Somehow, I was inspired to wear a scarf today, too ;) It is still cold here... Outfit shows one of my blue/grey colour combinations plus my new BV bracelet!

Which is that one?

The Bally could be a summer bag! Good idea!

What did you get? I love navy blue, it's such a cool color
 
I can't remember who suggested a Coach with the turn lock . I found the pebbled leather one. It is not completely unwrapped but here it is. What do you think?
I like it
i like the chains, which are adding the rock chic but do not overload the bag
i like the leather, it looks durable and beautiful
i like small logo and lock, they add a right amount of decoration, and leave the room for anything else you want to add (a charm, a bow, a twilly) without making it look like xmas tree...
imho, an all around great bag! :tup:

Thanks! I went back and forth a few times because it was not what I went out for. A lot of the tan or grey bags I saw today were just ok. Then I decided I should just go with the one I liked and color wise works with the clothes I wear now.

Will you wear it in the summer with your summer clothes? Cuz this was supposed to be a summer bag right ?
