Thanks! This was the first premier bag I bought full price brand new in store. Then I had buyer's remorse and was going to return it. But when I went back Gucci was having a 40% off sale. So I kept it at the discounted price. I was sooooo happy!

11 bags in , 12 bags out, 2 slgs in, 1 slgs out.
Of all the bags that came in only one went back out. I got rid of most of the really huge bags and bought more medium size lighter weight bags that really work for me. I have so much empty space that I didn't realize that I still bought a lot of bags. I guess because some of the bigger bags took the same amount of space as three smaller bags.

Great job on getting bags that you will keep. I know you've been tired of selling so this is great!!! You're really getting know what you want so you get your "buys" right the first time. :tup:

These are such beautiful bags Spark. I've always admired that Horsebit. My heart beats a little faster each time you show it. The teal Tote is just a WOW I also admire the little PS. I think it might be my favorite PS bag and I've only seen it in your collection. Beautiful, all!

Thanks! :blush: I haven't seen anyone else on TPF with the PS Small Courier bags either which surprises me. They are so easy to carry and the dual color hardware make them easy to coordinate. I'm happy I found them.

I'll show my weekly brands later but I do want to show my bag for today, my Longchamp Sakura tote. It's pretty and easy to wear although it's not really neutral so the color has to be worked with the outfit of the day. Today it's a lot of white for me… hot here right now. I love when white feels like the right thing (not so often, imho).

Pretty bag! I don't associate this kind of design with Longchamp. I didn't know they did patterned non nylon bags.

I'm leaving tomorrow morning (Tues) for the Star Trek convention :borg: in Las Vegas. :yahoo:

Since I'll be busy geeking out, I'll post my bags for the week. I don't have any Goyard or Longchamp. I do have Gucci.

This is my Gucci Teal Nubuck Shoulder Bag (it's really a cross between a shoulder bag and tote) View attachment 3781965
And my Gucci Cherry Gloss Stirrup BagView attachment 3781966
I'm in the midst of packing so I haven't been able to show any non bag items that I have from each brand unless I can pull an archived photo from TPF. :doh: And most things I'd never have had a reason to show since it's a purse forum. LOL!

I bought these Gucci horsebit YG drop hoops earlier this year View attachment 3781974
I love Gucci sunglasses and have a couple pair but only can find a photo of these with my black PS Sm. Courier View attachment 3781975

The turquoise bag really pops, spark. Such a happy color.
Have a terrific time at the convention! Will you get to do any shopping in LV, or is it all Star Trek, all the time? :p

I'm a little upset.

A crack in my windshield has formed.

[emoji17] my car certainly knows when to have an issue. I have a car maintenance fund, but I suddenly get conservative in spending whenever something out of the ordinary happens.

Maybe I'll have August as a 0 in month now! Lol

Oh, ugh. I wonder if your auto insurance covers it? This happened to me once, and I was surprised to find that it was covered by my auto insurance... and that they didn't raise my rates. Something to check, perhaps?
Hate it when Life purchases (reparing a furnace) interfere with Fun purchases (new sunnies)! :annoyed:

Not yet, not until I see the full fall lineup, which are colors both of us could wear. :smile: Then I'll suggest some.

However, don't you have a lot of navy bags? Or were those some you let go of?

I did get rid of a few Navy bags too. I have three crossbodys and a handheld left. Two of the crossbody bags are up for sale though. Only keeping the most functional one.

This is gorgeous! Love the cherry blossom pattern, blue against the white leather. It looks like Japanese blue-and-white ceramics! :heart::heart::heart:

According to the online quote, insurance covers it. Just need to pay the small deductible.
Seriously! Life, let us have more fun! haha
Luckily I have so many random funds for life. I just don't like using it because it mean something happened. lol

For some reason, most of LC models just don't work for me. Their tote from autumn collection is lovely but doesn't work either. Inner side is metallic which will get scratched too easily.

I have only two LC thought I love the lightweightness; a WOC and this from Heritage collection:

The pic taken by me is not so great because it's almost night here.Leather feels gorgeous.

Here's a better one from the internet:
