Anyone have a bag with which they need help styling? :smile:

I haven't strayed much from my bread and butter styles so I'm good with wearing all my bags.

What bag is everyone starting the week off with? I'm feeling like I should wear something summery but I have work meetings and I kinda want to wear my black Prada bauletto :thinking:

Summery is exactly what my bag looks like! Balenciaga Day in Apple Green, plus H scarf

Well, I will offer up a bag that I could use some different styling ideas for. It was a gift from DH; I chose it. I wore it a lot initially; but then it became a closet sitter. It's still in excellent condition.

It brings back special memories and a very special time in our lives, so I do not plan on selling it ... at least not for now. It is currently my only obviously branded bag.

Some ways I would style it, but I would like more ideas!

I only have a couple of mono-print bags. They are for my careless days and therefore my suggestions are prob more on the casual side.

I really like the outfits you've created so far.

* Every permutation of denim comes to mind first. Therefore denim jacket, jeans, jean skirt, shorts etc
* LBD Summer dress (tank or strappy) with tan, brown, beige or old-gold sandals
* All white against the mono-print also looks classic and lovely in sunshine

Thanks, papertiger!

I plan to use this as more of a carefree/casual bag this Summer. This should help me get more use from it!

Great info and of course, interesting. So, hypothetically, if someone was born in 1960, they would just look for a dinosaur?? [emoji56]

The further back you go the better (the handbag quality). Just think Audrey Hepburn at the height of her powers, Marilyn at her most interesting. and Jackie O and Grace Kelly as style leaders...

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?

I never watch the show, but I'd guess my trusty traveling crossbody Husky.

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:
