Love the berry color of your Sukey!
The Guccissima leather tempted me before, but there wasn't that right color for me to pull that trigger. The leather seems to hold color really well!

@westvillage,
Beautiful! Brings me good memories of Aslan in Narnia. I wanted a lion as a pet but got a dog instead when I was little.

Here is my only Gucci next to my Kindle (to show its size). An old family friend gave it to me as a gift in the 1980s when I was in middle school. He worked for Gucci in New York for many years.
This tiny cross-body bag barely holds anything. I guess I could use it as a date bag.

Here's one of two of my Longchamp Pliages. The other is a dark forest green, and it's in a box I haven't unpacked yet.
I use my LCs only when I travel. This platinum one is my favorite.

Looks like a good hands free bag for festivals or concerts etc.
Micro bags are so in right now and an older Gucci like yours and has such a cool vibe, but I know what you mean. Great that you held onto it. It's a lovely bag with your history in it.
I don't wear the Sukey often. Just because I have a lot of other bags. But it is a bag that is a go-to when I can't decide on which bag to match an outfit. For instance, during our Christmas party last year, the theme for the outfit was something Christmasy. I wore a hunter green dress livened up by a Christmasy scarf. With all the colors there, I couldn't wear red, nor black, etc. But the color and style of my Sukey just fit the outfit!! There have been a lot of other instances too when this just seemed to be the right bag!
I'm envious of your YTD stats!! Enjoy your Disco!
I'm continuing to use my Gucci tote that has needed some serious wearing for a few years now. Here she is with me at the hairdresser today, along with my sun hat and splattered shoes.
Here's a bag that I ordered and received in July and sent back. The saga: my last name repeats the sound 'Bee' so we always have funny littlle bee references, e.g. we were the 'beehive' before that famous singer's fans adopted the name. But I've never bought stuff that had bees on it and I don't particularly relate to bees. So when Gucci came out with this particular bee bag I thought I would go for it just once. I did my typical thing of hesitating until I couldn't get the bag anymore (cruise collections disappear fast) and actually I wanted it in red but it is gone from the face of the earth. I was able to get one in brown sent from a boutique in Kentucky. When it arrived I was underwhelmed. The embroidered bee was very nice but the rest of the bag was quite unimpressive, imo, including the leather, so back it went. Here's my almost bee bag and my almost 2nd Gucci:
