And here are two bags that function for me as "red," though they are actually multicolored. Which I realize is a theme for much later in the year. :P

Marc Jacobs Tweed Girls Mae. This is quite a rare bag, from the F/W13 collection, shown in his runway show. It's sequins on the outside, and leather on the inside, with leather threaded through the chain strap. Listed for an obscene amount of $$$ at the time, but thanks to a tPF friend and MJ authenticator, I picked it up for peanuts (and I do mean peanuts!) on TRR the following year. Ordinarily I would hesitate to buy from TRR, but this friend definitely knows her MJ! I absolutely adore this bag.

Gucci Queen Margaret GG Supreme Medium Shoulder Bag. I know this is more tan than red. But it "pops" with my clothes like my other red bags, so I use it as a red bag.

Fantastic red bags! The bee clasp on your Queen Margaret is a beautiful piece of jewelry!

I keep a group shot of all my bags on my phone but I don’t have Individual photos. So I quickly took a group shot now of my 3 red bags:
- Hermes Tpm Evelyn, rouge garance
- Hermes kelly 28, rouge casaque
- Hermes medor, rouge vif
I feel like I have great coverage for red - casual small bag, dressy clutch and medium size bag that can go from casual to dressy. So I have no interest in adding any other bags.

Wonderfully thought out red family and I love how each shade just sings with your leather choice for each piece.

Hi everyone! Shameful as it is, I was not able to do the January challenges. And just when I thought I was doing "good" (January was almost over) and would not purchase a bag this year, I succumbed and even bought 2! My excuses were that the 1st one was part of my wishlist for 2 or 3 years already and the other one was on and off my eBay watchlist. Now, I want to say I am done. But I might just jinx myself.

For the February challenges, I was able to read them early this morning. AOTM, I do not have a red bag. I had a Vivienne Westwood pochette with streaks of red but I sold it last year. But if I can recall correctly, I have 3 purple bags. I am lazy to stand up and look for them in my closet now as I am preparing to sleep but I got the chance to wear 1 of them to a birthday party of a co-mommy in school early this evening. It is my Vivienne Westwood small sling bag:

I'm 1 of 3 purple bags down for the Color Challenge and 1 of 3 smallest bags down for the Extreme Team Challenge.

My other purple bags are:
- Vivienne Westwood speedy-like bag
- RM Mini Cupid

My other smallest bags are:
- LV Pochette
- Fendi Baguette

My late January and early February purchases are:
- Balenciaga Town in Latte with RGH
- Marc Jacobs Single Baroque

I'm planning on selling my lesser known brand bags bec. they are basically redundant bags already and haven't touched them in 6 months or so. And I'm starting my decluttering in the house. That should keep me busy and away from eBay. If I should sell something, I'll post them on Facebook rather than on eBay where I can get easily tempted to search for bags and other items.
