I have a WOC so a mini would be redundant as it would carry the same items for me. I know this. I need to stop wanting the mini.
Great! Hope the Coach works better than the Etsy tote!

Thanks! I'm sure the etsy tote would have worked well too but my Mom fell in love with it. I didn't want to have the exact same bag as her, hence the Coach .
Haha I always try that but Mom gets the bag anyway after me. I gave up.
I am done. I just bought a Balenciaga Whistle and that's it for me. No more bags next year. Gonna start saving money for next summer!! Definite ban for the rest of the year. :3
I have 3 Etsy bags, 1 Longchamp, 2 Coach bags (although one is in repair), and 2 LV's. I'm done!!

I'm with you. I'll be with you, and those who are aiming for no purchase months, or the entire year. I wonder if it will be easier the second time around.
that's a wonderful goal. I remember when @papertiger got it, it was beautiful. Definitely worth the effort!
No, i think it depends on how you carry it and then care for it after you put it away. If you wear it one day and it rains or you are a little rougher on it, versus carrying it for 5 days straight but you're just going to and from the office and it sits at your desk, it will definitely show more wear. I put my bags immediately away once I switch out of them.
#6 is so very true and i have to remind myself of that every day, and not just for bags. What H purchase do you have planned for this year?
I'm planning my January challenge of 15 in 31 and I think there'll be lots of days that I'll wear 2 bags in a day coz I'll only bring 1 or 2 bags with me during the trip and it's a week long trip. This will probably be the great opportunity for me to mix and match and perhaps for the smaller bags to come out. [emoji16] I may become a bag lady a bit for carrying 2 bags together some days. [emoji16] I think it'll be fun! [emoji38]
Sorry for my late reply and thank you all for considering my question about wearing a bag single days vs. some days in a row. I was wondering... Of course, I always treat my bags well, stuff them etc. And I would like them to develop a well-loved, worn look over time. There are some beautiful examples at the bag showcase section...
Concerning the challenge, I think I will go for the 15 in 31. Usually, I am a bit lazy and too protective in the winter months... But Prada Saffiano and my other Saffiano bag, canvas Garden Party, Fendi 2jours, my Tory Burch, Burberry and my Longchamps should stand the test and this is already more than three. No suede around [emoji6]

The weather here is already awful but that for me is part of the challenge. I will not ruin any of my bags but it will show me how many I actually use in this area that I live in. I will definitely need to up date the photos of my bags on my phone.
Question for everyone as we look to optimize our closets.
If you had to give up 1 bag from what you consider to be your "main" collection, what would it be. And...what's keeping you from giving it up now?

I'm a bit odd I actually don't have any bags I consider as main collection or permastash bags. My oldest bags are 2 LV that I've had for about 4-8 years but used sparingly. I didn't sell both as my mother forbids me to do so. One of it is actually hers. My "regular" bags come and go too fast. They rarely made it to 1 year with me [emoji32]. Since I intend to cut down my buying in 2017 I hope I'll be able to enjoy my bags well and even break it in.
This is a tough one because I just got rid of it. If I had to get rid of another it would probably be one of mz bag baby janes because you would have to pry another one of my lv's from my hands. Last year I would have said the Rouge epi speedy but since everyone helped me style it ,it has seen more love again.Question for everyone as we look to optimize our closets.

longchaamp cuir large in gunmetal. i never used it since i brought it to a trip to KL. as it is a large bag, I put lots of things in it and the small shoulder strap hurts my shoulder bad. never use it since. i dont know why i still keep it.
