I find red hard to carry too (stop sign lol!) but then when I look at pics of me with my red bags I am like wow that looks great. So maybe take a pic to show you how great they look while wearing.

2019
- Same as 2018
- Considered replacing Red Lambskin WOC with Black Caviar WOC, got quotes, decided to pause on selling red WOC, purchased the black WOC and use it frequently (fantastic little bag for traveling), carried and reevaluated the red WOC and decided to keep it for the time being (silky smooth leather as it is 5 years old now) and monitor my wears
The mulberry looks almost purple (raisin) colour, beautiful bag!
Lucky daughter!
Happy Super Bowl Sunday to those who watch!
Today is going to be another listing day. I’m going to sell the red Prada. I only wore it 4 times last year and 3 wear were “forced” because of our challenges.I have no heartburn over this one. Better to get the little bit of money it’s worth and put that to another similarly functional bag that I’ll actually wear. Bags with gold hardware are tough for me to rotate in as I prefer white gold jewelry and don’t mix metals. I’d rather just get a second smallish gold bag (I have my gold new medium Boy) and use those when I wear yg jewelry v my previous approach of trying to have bags with both shw & ghw in all my “key” colors.
And, I know what I’m getting for V dayso I’m selling the item it’s replacing in hopes someone will want it for their Valentine. I also have 2 other pieces I’m ready to let go. Jewelry is the one thing I’m bad about hoarding. So, I’m trying to have a 1 in 2 out approach for the next couple years. I’ll let you know if I can pull this off without having a stroke. LOL! With V Day, I’ll have 2 pieces in over the last couple months so, I have to make good on the four out
I’m really dithering on what #4 will be. It’s easier for me to give the jewelry to DD than sell it. So, I may just pick something out and give it to her as a V day present. BTW - I’m so happy, her project has been extended so she’ll be here through the first week of March!!!
Finally, I have some clothes the were lurking earmarked for sale a couple months ago that I forgot about.They are mostly mistakes from my last trip to Europe. I just went buying cuckoo. I look at the items and think what alien took over my body and made me buy these???
One cream colored jacket is my size but so voluminous, that it looks like I’m being swallowed by demonic yet artistically designed marshmallow. Another bad idea is a black pantsuit with ankle pants hemmed in 3 inches of white lace.
I really have no idea what I was thinking.
Exciting month ahead for you!
I was going to ask you what you do with your unused jewelry. I have a bunch of items I want to get rid of - a bunch of hermes items I will send to consignment, but then I have a bunch of gold/silver I have no idea how to get rid of. Do you go to a pawn shop for that stuff? I also should put aside the items I think my daughter would love at some point, though she seems to have her eyes set on some VCA pieces .
Thank you Sparkle!
Thanks dc!
Great evolution! I love that you were able to make your daughter’s dreams come true by gifting her the Speedy. I like the backpack!
Hi soramillay
I like your Rudsak! Did you know it’s a Canadian brand? Waving from Canada!
Thank you! A few months ago I tried to rehome the Tod‘s, but now I‘m happy it didn‘t find a buyer immediately and I still have it
The leather on your Tod’s bag looks great, I just want to reach into the screen and give it a bit of a squeeze!
Thank you lynne_ross. I do enjoy carrying my Coco Handle. Burgundy is quite a versatile colour to wear with my wardrobe. I almost bought this bag in black (doh, too many black bags
) I am glad I bought the burgundy instead! 
I will do the Colour Challenge with my red and burgundy bags and the Fresh Focus February with my red WOC. Thanks for laying out the February Challenges and Colour Week Bag Showcase @SparkletasticFEBRUARY SHOPPING YOUR CLOSET CHALLENGES!
• Color challenge: Wear each of your bags in the colors of Feb - red for love or purple for amethyst.
• Extreme team: Wear your 3 smallest or 3 largest bags at least 2x
• Fresh Focus February: Pick one lesser used bag and wear it with 4 new outfits over the month (approx. one a week)
• Function or Form: Wear both your prettiest bag and your most functional bag at least 2x this month
You are correct she just received it for Christmas. She was so over the moon with it I saw her taking selfie’s with it. lol
Daughters always seem to know what the valueable stuff is.
I'm sorry you had to deal with thisI listed 2 more bags today. So, I have a total of 5 listed.
I did a quick check of prices on my red Prada DZT. Ack! They’re horrible. So I shan’t be selling that bag for any reason. More motivation to enjoy it and rotate. Lol!
I’m a little frustrated with people. I’m selling an area rug. I had an apt at 10 today for someone to come by. They no showed after confirming this morning.So, I contacted the person who begged me to let them know if the first person didn’t come. Though we had agreed on a selling price they tried to get me to cut it in half. When I said no, we agreed to a price and that is what I’m selling it for, they actually said I needed to “get over myself” and just sell the rug.
Has any sense of civility completely been abandoned on the Earth??? Why be nasty? And, how did they expect the transaction to go if we met in person after that ignorance? SMH!?
This is yet another reason why I don’t want to sell things anymore. People can be so idiotic and mean spirited.
I hope you find a buyer who is a decent human being soon!Lovely!! I've always wanted that Furla Club. Do you like it?
