I have a few Mulberrys. I have found the brand reasonably priced RELATIVE to some other premier brands for the same look and feel.

Small Zipped Bayswater in Oxblood. A favorite!

Camden in Dune color. Leather is so ‘fragrant’! The bag is easy to carry.

Leighton in Black. I normally carry her by the shoulder using a Massaccesi strap I ordered specifically for her. But in this photo the bag has the original straps.

I love Mulberry! I have a wallet (just retired), leather bracelet and wool scarves.

No Miu Miu for me. I have Tory Burch shoes (my go to brand for shoes nowadays) but no bags.

They are all beautiful, but the Camden drew my eye immediately. Such soft, smooshy leather. :loveeyes: :loveeyes: :loveeyes:

I have a small Mulberry wallet that's good when I'm carry a small handbag.

And, like you, I have a few pairs of Tory Burch shoes (mine are ballet flats) but no bags.

Beautiful Mulberrys, I love your choices!

Can you believe I'm just putting my Summer-only bags away now? Pink velvet, vintage shoulder bag, Gucci Anamalier Bright et al.

I have no Miu Miu either but I used to love their collections and have some RTW (many moons ago) and I would have killed for a Prada Fairy bag. I wouldn't turn one down now for a reasonable price. I only have one Prada bag left but I hardly think about Miu Miu or Prada for bags now.

Anyone else suddenly find themselves unintentionally closing their minds on certain brands?

Hopefully. off to pick up my Bamboo GP tomorrow so I'll just where my Evie and carry the Garden Party in hand to a art exhibit closing party.

Thanks for everyone sending me their best wishes. I got the job I went for this week (yay) and transfer immediately. :hugs: just as well coz I didn't even get an interview for the other I applied for.
Looks like rain, wearing the Evie again plus Double Sens Maxi to go shopping. See you later.

Congrats on the new job. Have fun at the gallery closing party. Though I just realized I have forgotten to invite people to one I am showing at the end of next week. Ugh! I think because I really don’t want to go it myself. It’s a beautiful venue but no always well attended.

So far I have worn 16 different bags this month. How is everyone else doing with the challenge?

Not including Hermes Evie I've worn 3 :laugh: and one of those broke. Honestly, this month I've had too much going on to even think.

Have to get repaired GP back Weds. They couldn't find it today and I didn't have to wait.

I've worn about 6, which means when I get back from this trip I need to wear a different bag almost every day until the end of the year!
Also enjoying wearing my scarves in the order I purchased them. This week wearing a lot of pink, which I wouldn't normally pull out this time of year (apparently I was going through a pink phase in the summer of 2014 LOL), but it's fun! And challenging.

I've worn 10 of my bags. I don't have a huge collection--a little less than half of what I own. but I'm amazed that I wore that many because I typically live in one for a while. It was nice to wear some old friends.

Scarves I feel a lot better about. I've been better about using my cashmeres. Im also in a colour phase. Last year it was red, red, and a bit of blue, this Winter seems to be mostly purple, green or teal.
