For blue week I have same 3 bags as last year plus 2 new bags I purchased over 2019
- blue atoll birkin 30
- blue st cyr kelly cut
- blue Brighton mini roulis
- blue indigo birkin 25

5 years I did not like blue bags but came to realize they got well with my wardrobe and added the ones above in last 5 years.

Blue bags go well with my wardrobe too! However, lately, I've been feeling that blue bags don't have the same pizazz as, say, red bags, for me. This is just me. Maybe I'm just getting bored with the color as I wear a lot of blue clothes - and blue on blue (even if different shade) is a bit dull when worn a lot. Btw, I have yet to post my blue bags.

Totally agree with blue bags being very wearable. I find blue bags go with a lot of my wardrobe. They are great with jeans at the weekend dressed up or down or workwear. It’s a really versatile colour as my clothes colour choices lean towards blue, pink, purple tones when not black!

Is this the first time you're posting the Tory Burch? Looks really pretty!

Might be! I may have posted when I bought it, but definitely not in last year blue group because I didn’t have it yet.

I've been quietly working on my closet and have listed a Coach and a Chanel today. Getting down to bags I won't part with, at least for now. I'm listing bags that don't feel quite as right as some of the others I have, even if they're lovely to look at. However I seem to be buying replacements as fast I'm listing them so I'm not quite sure I have the hang of this yet :lol:.

I’m sure what you do is amazing with preloved and altered. :smile:
I’m not elfin either - a total pear in fact! The good thing about bags is that they don’t need to be adjusted to suit changing size. They don’t judge, care or make comment!

Very well said! Bags are the answer! They never ask which size we are and unlike shoes and clothes they always fit and make us feel good. Oops...this sounds so good it´ll be hard to stick to the topic of this thread!

So, February has gone and come and I have not bought any bags, but also, have not managed to sell the one to compensate for my January’s Loewe Cushion tote...

Otherwise, I have still made some purchases: A Loewe belt and pair of brogue shoes, a pair of JBrand pants, and on sale, a leather jacket by some Swedish brand, a JW Anderson shirt dress, Mother jeans and a couple of t shirts. All rather sensible buys but still too much when put together... I do tend to buy early for the following season though.
I have a couple of purchases planned for March and hopefully I can have a shopping free April.

I have also made the decision to consign a bunch of stuff with Rebelle (they have an action going this week). Selling yourself is just too much time and organization. I am going to be doing the boxes this weekend and I intend to be quite ruthless and include a bunch of bags even if I like all I have. I reckon once they are gone that is it. It will also make me confront my new lifestyle and needs as I leave my office job in Easter. I have this Spring urge to clear out, let go and strip down. I am also thinking of making the value of the consignment my fashion budget for the year... Let’s see...

In any event this thread is forcing me to confront my shopping habits and I am so grateful for everyone posting!

Good luck and congratulations on your motivation and drive! I agree this thead is very good at confronting us with our shopping habbits! I managed to stay away from two saddlebags on ebay this week-end, though I could almost have justified the prices they went for. !) I don´t need one 2) they were not typical Galliano designs... No!
