Today I am using my least used bag. I could have sworn I wore it in the beginning of the year a few times, but it had no tick marks. She is going no where though because I adore this bag. My new wallet is loaded inside and ready to go. I think Elaine is right about wanting to use stuff right away means it probably going to be a winner.
It's a real classic. I'm not familiar with the bag. (Didn't even know it was called a Papillon.) Is it large? Does it come with a strap, or is it hand/arm carry?

This is an older model papillon 30. It is mostly hand carry but I can put it on my shoulder when I need to. It has a gorgeous red leather interior and it came with a baby bag inside. I believe they no longer come with the mini bag .

I took a quick picture look below at the green Matt board for approximate size .

How is everyone doing this holiday season? Are you holding strong or are there goodies heading your way? So far this month only the wallet for me. I already counted what’s going to be under the tree last month. I am still hoping more things move at the consignment shop but so far only a sweater has gone this month. I want those ten bags to go.

Gladly I have distractions. Things are hectic at work plus I need to do Christmas shopping for family and coworkers (I give all members of my staff and certain bosses small tokens; this year it's just food item because I have no time to really shop). Then I am also preparing for my trip before Christmas. My sister who I will visit has a long list of items she wants me to bring! I know there are lots of attractive sales, but so far so good in me holding off. :smile:
 
Visually it doesn’t have the pop of color the other one had but for function this one works way better for me.
This looks like a great functional wallet, perfect size - congratulations!

I like the ones that have the 3-D tree on them. So sad that they discontinued it. I bought my little red one when I knew they were phasing it out.

Beautiful red wallet!

Thank you! I love a red wallet... so easy to see inside a bag. My larger one is also red...

I love your stunning red wallet!

Inspired by the posts of Mulberry wallets, here is mine. I think this line has been discontinued too? This might be 2 years old already, can’t remember, and I’m a one wallet gal, so this could use a replacement soon. [emoji3]

What an amazing parade of wallets! I love the blue and the leather of this one!

I'm doing pretty good. I bought some purse charms I really didn't need, but love them. I put some of my other purse charms up for sale to compensate. I still have my eye on one more bag but I'm still waiting for a better price or maybe another one will pop up with the price I want.
