Her and her little sister who is 6 came over to play dress up and play with my jewelry and bags and paint our nails and toenails.....divas!!!
Lol they sound like so much fun
Liz- can't wait to see what you decided on and Happy almost Birthday to you too.
Thanks dc!!
My new Furla had her first outing today. The lady guard by the entrance at the mall said (as she went through the motion of checking my bag which is an SOP here) "your bag is beautiful!"

I normally don't match blue and olive green, but I wanted to wear the bag! [emoji4]
Wow msd! I already thought this bag is beautiful from your previous picture but now I love it even more from this mod shot! Looks fantastic on you and I love how you used it as a shoulder bag.

I watch the series Doctor Who. At some point, I noticed some of the accessories companions carried, like Clara Oswald and her red satchel. So, if the Doctor showed up (traveler through time and space) and you had time to grab just one bag before running off on adventures with him, which would it be?
Because I thought about the question, it would be my Bal Velo. But if in a rush and without thinking, maybe my Epi Speedy.

I've come to the conclusion lately that I don't like long strap shoulder bags. For me to like to wear a shoulder bag, the strap should be wide and at about the same strap drop as my Furla in the modshot. And another realization, my shoulder really can't take crossbody. During my recent trip, we walked to Sands to get a glimpse of the casino, it's a short walk from our apartment. I used my Massaccesi mini Zhoe and it just carried my travel wallet, 1 cellphone, 1 mobile router and my passport (not even in a holder). I already felt discomfort after a few minutes.
 
I have a question for everyone - do you have a bag in your collection that you can imagine wearing and wearing and wearing till it falls to bits? I'm sometimes fickle with bags, and move them on when I get bored, but I've had this goatskin Pandora for about 3 years. I've worn it regularly and in all sorts of weather, slinging it around without babying it, and all it does is get softer. Such an easy bag to live with :biggrin:

I know that no matter how beautiful certain bags are we still want to move out of them. To answer your question, maybe it's my Massaccesi midi Minerva in red nappa. I just conditioned her last night and I'm even more in love. However, I've had her for only 6 months so I don't know how I'd feel later.

Your'e right, certain colours, styles and leathers look better and better with age and use.

The bag that springs to mind most is my BV Cervo Hobo. I've already had the privilege of using it for 3 years all year round even though I bought it as a Summer bag. I often go for weeks without changing out of it. It's also the bag I take on holiday. That is why you see this bag so much in this thread.

I'll keep my Gucci Top-handles and others and H bags for ever but they won't look good too bashed.

BTW, if that Pandora is the exact colour it appears on my screen that's exactly the colour that's missing from my wardrobe ;)
 
The saddle shape is new for me, I'm just happy it's turned out well. Thanks ladies!! I couldn't find the color tag but online it says Salvio, which I researched to be Sage. So it's sage green.

It looks great and it works with your outfit!

Your hobo is beautiful, look at the sheen on that leather :love: I'm looking for a hobo shaped bag in the sales, but no joy so far. The pandora pic above is pretty close colour wise - its called burgundy, and it's maybe a little bit lighter irl - here's another closer photo for you - I think the actual colour is somewhere between the two :p
