Less used pieces would be the alma and the exotic dionysus , the dionysus is very heavy maybe because of the metal hardware and the strap, and the alma because it is so delicate, it gets a lot of fingerprints. I use my longchamp tote for everyday work. I use my B25 on weekends (I rotate it with the other B/K/C). I use my mini evelyne a lot at dinner since I only carry a wallet and a phone. I use the Gucci tote and the disco bag for travel since they have zippers, I feel a little safer. The Chanel flap for a dressier night out. I haven't used my mcqueen for a long time, the strap hurts my shoulder. The LV giant neverfull I used it once in a while walking around the casino. And still to this day I haven't worn my Kelly ado (buyer's remorse?)

I’m sorry the Kelly Ado hasn’t worked for you! But thank you for sharing!

You made a brilliant choice. The original SBS is a wonderful bag and it’s great you can still get the style. I was trying to see if I could see the iconic tree on the lock or the newer branded lock. Was it an outlet store you were in? In many ways, I wish there was an outlet nearer me but it’s probably good there isn’t! Just a full price boutique here.

The small classic grain leather is excellent in black too. My Seaton has that exact leather and it doesn’t have a mark on it. I am certain you will love this bag. I’m really excited for you. It’s great to have a DD who can do bag advice! More pics please!

Yes, it was the outlet. The full price shop is way to far away.

My blues .... I will make a decision to use them this month. I think I used the Antigona twice only .... ugh. It’s really stiff. I wear my Pochette Métis A LOT. Plan yo get another color.

These are very pretty!
I see the Pochette Metis quite a bit, but haven't really looked into it. Is it pretty small? It seems like it is… I think @ElainePG has one and loves hers too.

Thank you! I love the PM. I think it’s the ideal bag for me. I can fit my phone 6S, mini Pochette, Boy zippy card case, keys, sunglasses and I would still have room for other things. I don’t know the canvas one but the leather looks well constructed to me. I’ve had it for 1 year and no glazing issues, knock on wood.

Oops! You just answered my question. That’s quite a good volume then. ☺️

We all have to start somewhere - good for you on listing 2 bags! I hope they sell quickly!
If your replacements are exactly what you were looking for (not settling) - you're

Beautiful blues!
We rarely hear about the So Kelly - how do you like it? I've looked at them but thought they might be too deep and I'd lose things in the bottom of the bag - even with pouches!

Do tell - I'm all ears about the Garden Party love. I have resisted because I don't think I'd like a tote that is arm carry only.
I am also having green lust - must be something in the water?

Well I can actually get this up on the shoulder, when not wearing a winter coat. When I broke my arm I stopped carrying it, but I’m ready to bring it out again.

Oops, I do and it drives me crazy. I can´t even explain where this obsession has come from. I wear silver jewellery and this generally means no gold hardware on my handbags- or jackets/coats- at least as soon as what I´m wearing is supposed to be an "outfit".
Sometimes I catch myself refusing to wear shoes with a tiny golden fastener in combination with a silver hardware bag.... "grandma" rules of fashion?

Doesn't matter that you have your own rules, you are an independent spirit
