So cheerful!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!

hahaha, except that someone decided a Birkin with a cupholder was a good idea. Who were they listening to? LOLOLThat sounds like a fabulous design. What a shame they stopped making it.
Wouldn't it be nice if the handbag designers listened to the people who carried the bags???

That is a cool strap, though. Can you still keep it attached, and dangling festively, even though you're actually using the shorter strap?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.

Haha, you're right. They are very nice there. Except for a bar jacket though, the clothes are not really me. (And not in my budget either.) After watching NEXT IN FASHION (anyone else?) I think finding a new young designer would be really fun.
I love these!
Hahaha - I am continually amazed at how well we know each other’s closets!Yellow IS a happy color, isn't it?
But I thought you also had a yellow and white bag???
I do have a white and yellow bag - Le Tanneur - but I consider it a white bag because the yellow is on the sides. It’s my favorite thing about that bag (aside from the fact that it’s a great bag in and of itself), and makes me smile when I see that pop of yellow. Do you think I should post it this week too?
I love that yellow duffle!
Cure outfit all around! I’m trying to find the right trainers to go with semi dress pants. Yours are great. And I really like your tote!I just can’t resist taking a photo at this paid restroom at the mall.Still in my MCM Klara.

Thanks. I’ll claim one as well! Just terrific!
Dear everyone! Thank you for your kind words and all the “likes” 
This has been a fun and eye opening journey for me. Pulling out all these all these bags and SLGs and putting them into rotation. I also realize that I so desperately need a better SLG storage system. Same for scarves but that’s another problem
you may find that once we get through this color showcase that color is my favorite color (except when it’s neutral 
)

Thanks!
I am committed to switch out the SLGs once a week now. It’s a lot of work honestly but now that I’m forced to confront what I’ve accumulated over the years, the least I can do is carry them. I’m just so happy that you are all here to see them! On red bags..I wear so many neutrals that any color on my bag works for the most part.Your red collection is most enviable! So many lovely bags and SLGs. Do you switch SLGs regularly too?
I can never work out how I’d wear red. In fact I don’t have any yellow, orange or green either. From blue week onwards I’m there though.
Thank you! The burgundy satchel is one of my favorites..the Botkier Sasha. I’ve discussed her features in detail..I think in 2018 thread. The design is so clever and it is convertible into 3 carrying options (satchel, barrel tote, shoulder slouch)
Thank you.No words
I never thought of red as my favorite color..sure seems like it though

I'm late as usual, which I guess is good as I have no orange or yellow bags. My red bags are an oxblood small BV Veneta, a "dunkelrot" small Longchamp LP Cuir, and a patent wristlet by Hobo:
And my SLGs are are all Hermes (2 Calvis, 2 Bastias, 1 MC2 Euclide card case, 1 agenda cover and 1 Bearn)except the Longchamp key case. The top Bastia is a super dark oxblood.

And a purse that I'm not sure if it's sentimental or not... My mother's mother was briefly into leatherworking as a hobby and made this for my mom, including her name stamped on the inside. My mother has no sentimental attachment to the bag, and her mother died before I was born, so I have no memories of her... so. Not sentimental but I'm pleased to have it. 
However, I never wear brown, so it's been sitting in my closet for forever, after sitting in mom's storage for 60? years. I made sure my mom didn't mind, and here it is almost finished:
The lock guard fell off and we don't think it can be crimped/glued back on, so my BF is going to attach it with tiny copper wire. He had far too much fun with his Dremel, discovering that the hardware is copper, not gold - even better! Some conditioner and it will be ready to go for the summer!
