2018 resolution - shopping my own bag and wallet collection. Any one else?

[dcooney4]

The love it or list challenge is a good one too. I have had quite a bit of movement in my closet and it feels great. Bags that I held on to but never wore or hardly ever . This is one of the few times I have dared to remove some Lv's . Before they were always off the table even if I didn't wear them. Now I hope this one sells. I want the empty space.
Next month I would like to try a challenge where you wear one time each of any style of choice. For me I want to try to wear all my backpacks and all my smaller flap type bags. Not sure if there are enough days with good weather to pull off the flap ones but I would like to try. The backpacks would not include travel ones though.

Glad to know the challenge is working well for you! This is one gorgeous bag!!

Love this bag! And I particularly like this angle.

Congrats on the sale!! Do share if you get something from Chanel!

I’ll. I actually have my eyes on a Loewe so it’ll be a small piece from Chanel. Let’s hope I can score something. My friend went last weekend and she said it was crazy coz people were buying like mad.

Woah, I didn't have to think too long because the gold is sold out again. Will keep checking their e-store.

Beautiful bag! Also like the sleeve detail on your shirt.

That leather looks just yummy! Really interesting details on that bag. Very nice.

. If that doesn't work, create a fun challenge for yourself such as wear a different bag every day. Or play a game: pretend you can only keep half of them.

This is good! I can think of a few off the top of my head that would be sacrificed.

minoxa, this bag is stunning

I’m silently trying the Black Bag challenge. 2 or 3 weeks ago I carried the Marc Jacobs Single bag for 2 days I think. Then last week, I used the LV Alma in Epi. And today (also yesterday) I am using my Massaccesi Angelica.

I will have to use a few more black bags to complete the challenge but I’m happy that they are getting some play time. [emoji3]

Congratulations on your progress with the black bag challenge!

I'm just beginning to learn and don't have wise advice, but want to say that you have a beautiful variety. I would use each one and write down how you feel about it. You might also find you prefer certain bags for seasons or uses that make them more or less useful. This year, I discovered I love certain versions of colors for different seasons. It might be just because this is new for me. You could put away all your bags that you don't want to wear this season, and they will be fresh again in the spring! Have fun! I agree with the posts to distract yourself from thinking about bags. If that doesn't work, create a fun challenge for yourself such as wear a different bag every day. Or play a game: pretend you can only keep half of them.

I agree with @essiedub this is an excellent mental exercise!

I'm floored by the softness of the leather on this new to me bag! Like, I lustily fondle her.

Any critical thoughts on this one? The lamb is simply gorgeous and I believe this was standard C's quality like 10 years ago. I tried current season mini lamb but it felt very fake. I hate re-selling and trying to be more mindful. I had Burberry lamb weekender which I sold with great lost in brand new condition. I seriously think lamb would work in this size bag. It's almost similar size to mini square. The people closest to me are no help. They are great enablers that's why I need your help, dear TPFers! How many years will C's lamb stay "fluffy"? Any critical thoughts are the most welcomed. I don't want to make the same mistake than, for example, with Whitney which also ended up for sale in brand new condition.

I’d say 10 years top. I’ve seen some that can stay for longer, but it depends on the stuffing underneath. The sponge? But 10 years is a good time under the condition that you store it well, too.
