Come to think of it, I had my chestnut Alexa out with me today. I guess chestnut is an orangey brown especially if worn with orange

I enjoy seeing this ray of sunshine. I have no yellow or orange.For yellow/orange week, I still have only one bag to show: my Balenciaga City with GSW. Shown here with a Mautto strap, though I think I'll be using it with its original (short) strap this spring/summer. When I carried it as a cross body with the longer strap, it looked as though the bag was wearing me.

Ha ha, I didn’t see your post until after I submitted mine and we said nearly the same thing!
+1 on no yellow/orange bags, no green bags for me either.
Why should they kick you out? A lady with a glorious H bag certainly fits into a Dior boutique- buying or not buying. I bet they are eager to convince you of Dior.
Yellow bag week: no yellow bags in this house- sorry! Can´t wait to see yours!The only bit of orange I can show is the back of the pouches I made today from my remaining PET shopping bags.
I didn´t bring any souvenirs for my older children so decided to make them a pouch. When the three were done I just kept sewing. DH and my youngest son already happily claimed a pouch, too.

I always love seeing this bag! It would be good to change straps from time to time.For yellow/orange week, I still have only one bag to show: my Balenciaga City with GSW.

Such a great yellow that bag is!!My one yellow bag - CoLab. Caught my eye on a dreary gray day, had to take her home.

And my one yellow SLG - Longchamp. I know nothing about it, except that it’s really quite large... so I cut out a section () from the middle. I saved it because it’s like a nice soft card case now... repurposing!

Yay for self restraint!! Though it's really is a nice color and shape.
Your Alexa looks yummy!
Yellow IS a happy color, isn't it?My one yellow bag - CoLab. Caught my eye on a dreary gray day, had to take her home.

But I thought you also had a yellow and white bag???
Great-looking bag! Do you find your Alexa heavy to carry? Mine is on "probation" at the moment…Come to think of it, I had my chestnut Alexa out with me today. I guess chestnut is an orangey brown especially if worn with orange

Why thank you @Cookiefiend. Aspinal is not a brand I really know but it had some really gorgeous bags in the shop!
I totally love my Alexa. Only got it in 2017 in a Mulberry sale and it’s my perfect casual bag.
Thanks @ElainePG. The Alexa is my idea of a perfect crossbody. Effortlessly beautiful, easy to carry and holds a lot. It’s not a light bag but I don’t really notice the weight either as it has a comfortable strap. I keep being temped by a preloved one in black but can’t justify it as I already have a small Bayswater satchel. Why is yours on probation?
These are awesome! You could have a business making these.
I don't think my yellow/orange bags have changed since last year.
Coach sunflower duffle from 2012
Coach Audrey patent cinched tote from 2012
Coach Soho belted pouch from 1997
Coach skinny case from around 1995 (I never use this. I got it in new condition and just like having it in my collection.)
