2019 resolution - shopping my own bag and wallet collection. Any one else?

I’m in Michigan now visiting with family and to attend a friend’s wedding on Saturday. It’s so chilly!! Yesterday it was so icy out that my Mom and two of her friends all fell in parking lots, not in the same place!

Oh no!

I do not want it to snow like mad as I am at a high altitude and it always snows more here. Not to mention loosing power with no generator or heat.

Here, when we lose power, the problem is that it becomes too hot without aircon or electric fan.

Either way is awful.

That’s no good! I hope they’re okay!

I guess I sounded selfish - I absolutely don’t want anyone to lose power and not have heat - or a/c as the case may be.

Agree!

Oh no! I hope they’re all right!

I hope they are all okay.

You all are sweet! They are fine. It’s just treacherous at times! My Dad made me wear his boots yesterday, and then I changed into my actual shoes at the party.

I saw a Chanel Gabrielle out in the wild for the first time today at the post office of all places. (Not sure why that struck me as odd since I had on a Chanel bag too. Lol!)

In any case it looked to be a small/ mini ?in white with black or navy trim. The woman wore it with the straps on each shoulder and it didn’t look as odd as I would have thought.

My issue was the condition of the bag. The white was grungy and the bag looked kind of crumpled / beat up. It made me wonder if it was a fake and / or if she was just a slob.

I get keeping an older bag once it’s blush of youth has faded. Lol. But, it drives me crazy to see dirty, misused bags. Just why?

The top part is aged calf so it’s supposed to be crinkled, while the bottom part suppose to be smooth. So, it has contrast.

I think your Bal closet can seriously rival CJ’s

*phew* Glad they are all OK and that your dad convinced you on safer shoes. I utterly hate icy weather because it is just so treacherous.

Oh no! I’m glad they are ok. I know we all like different types of weather but, I find cold to be a misery.

I’ve always loved the First.

Yep, I know. It wasn’t the “natural” state of the bag. It was simply abused and not well cared for. The crumpling was noticeable on the white part. The dark part was heavily scuffed. And, it was grungy / dirty overall. I don’t know how she got the bag in such a state. It’s almost as if kids or pets had played with it. Just wiping it down with baby wipes would have been an improvement.
