Agreed! happy birthday Cookiefiend!Thank you!
Thank you sweetie!
I’ll post some pictures tomorrow. Right now on the Mulberry site there’s a red faux Croc one - I am tempted because I’m so happy with this one.

The vintage jacquard is a Mors et Gourmettes in the mesh jacquard. I posted pictures of it last week on the SOTD thread, it is a beautiful green.
I absolutely appreciate the honesty from Annie - she really thought long and hard, and we had several conversations about options. What she did was priceless these days - she was honest. ❤
Thank you so much! ❤
Priceless - you can’t beat being happy.
Very nice!Even better!

Bottom line, I have purchased nothing and released nothing in either handbags or SLG categories. My recent online eye candy to oogle is scarves and shawls. I still enjoy looking.

Could you imagine us all together. It would be wonderful.I would love to go shopping with everyone on this entire thread!
Happy Birthday ! Can't wait to see your new wallet.So… stats for August…. Birthday month so - I did some things.
Purses in - 1 - The Goyard Sac Rouette. So light and easy to carry, I carried it 7 times in August.
Purse out - 1 - The Coach Saddle Bag. I really liked this but decided I liked the Lederer Toile bag much more.
SLGs in - 1 - I am thrilled with my new Mulberry Medium Zip Around wallet. In Prussian Blue, with a burgundy leather interior. It is (finally) exactly what I've been looking for.
SLGs out - 0 - but I might list my very small Coach card case… I've never carried it, but I love the leather.
Scarves in - 5. Oops! A 140 moussie (I was enabled!), a vintage jacquard, a 70 that I had been looking for, a 90 in a super fun graphic pattern, and a CS losange - which might be my foothold into the CSGM?
Cross Stitch/Lederer Update - I had sent the Lederer bag to a trusted purse person in Montana; she thought she might be able to get the cross stitch on the purse, but needed to see (and handle the bag) it first to make an informed decision. Welp - it's coming back to me this week - she just didn't feel comfortable. It would have involved taking the bag completely apart, and then the worry of getting it back together, leather issues, hardware issues and lets not talk about how much all that would have cost! So - I'm glad. When I sent it off, I was of two minds. Yes - I want that work on the bag. No - I like that bag just as it is. Okay - I was of three minds - what if I didn't like it once the cross stitch was on it?
She thought maybe it would be better if I put it on a tote - like a Double Sens, or even a RL tote of some sort. But, I learned that while I *like* a tote, I don't like a BIG tote. I love my Just Campagne - it's a great size. But I don't love any of my other totes, I only carry a tote when I have a crap-ton of stuff to haul to the office or if I'm traveling - so they aren't a thing for me. So, I don't want a tote!
When the Lederer gets here, I may carry it a few days out of sheer relief that it's back and I didn't ruin it.
Now my thoughts for the cross stitch is to make it into a smallish clutch or just frame it and enjoy it that way.

I have been living in my rose sakura chevre Calvi (for errands), and the Portland Leather shoulder/tote (if I need to carry sanitzer, iPad, etc.). I will try to expand this month!
(And I do have my eye on the O-Kelly small pendant.....)

Congrats on finding your grails! Do you mind sharing what they were? I find grails fascinating because they’re all so different for each of us. ❤️
Excellent! Thank you for sharing your thoughts, they are helpful to me. Sometimes I feel like I can’t quite articulate what I’m thinking! I pruned a few bags in August for donations, and now my collection feels almost perfect.August Update, YTD Stats and Challenges

I am slightly in awe of your carrying 12 bags
- slightly in contrast to my measly 4 (mostly to do with Covid) I hope to do better next (this) month.
even though it's kinda the point we STOP each other from going shopping he he
it would be so much fun
