2020 resolution - shopping my own bag and wallet collection. Any one else?

[cowgirlsboots]

I just made an impulse purchase too. I've been terrible lately. Not able to control my spending at all.

Oh, @whateve, I´m trying so hard to control my spending, but sometimes the urge is too strong... especially when it seems to be a bargain. Somehow in this case all my common sense is erased immediately.
For my previous purchases I really made an effort to be able to at least explain to myself I paid from unexpected or saved up funds... a payback from my health insurance company for the New Lock, the deposit bottle money for the Anselm Reyle woc and the contensts of the "small change/reimbursements for toy purchases by my DS jar" for the Karenina wallet...
This time there´s no excuse. Hopefully the transaction will work out smoothly. that price was really too good to be true... I keep reassuring myself that it´s completely safe because of paypal.

What did you buy on an impulse? A new bag?

Thank you for the sweet compliments everyone! I feel really content when it comes to my LE pieces but I’ve noticed a few gaps in my collection, particularly in the form of a black bag. Sometimes it’s nice to have something that matches everything.

Do I hear a very good reason for buying a new bag? )

You are not alone - we’ve all been there at some point. Sometimes the heart wants what the heart wants.

This heart says: "Thank you for the encouragement!"

You live in a converted train station?

Yes, we do! I wouldn´t claim it is actually converted, yet, though.

Yes, we do! I wouldn´t claim it is actually converted, yet, though.

That sounds so cool! And... like a huge project. I'd love to hear your plans if you want to share.

Aww, plans... we came here 12 years ago full of dreams and plans and gradually were confronted with reality. After living in a big caravan for 5 years and having a baby we at least managed to move into the house.



Atm we have settled with the status quo and live a very makeshift life in the middle of a very chaotic huge project that isn´t going much anywhere. But it is good to be here. We have a lot of space and personal freedom, kind of an island amidst the rat-race world.
If you ask DH we are full of plans. He loves to dream and plan... while it took me 10 years to realize my Ex wasn´t that wrong when he told me this project would need more money than I´d ever see on one pile.
Still no regrets!

Such a sleek, classic bag in such a pretty color! But with the edge of that glitter glazing? From like to love! Though I am shocked that it is heavy....does not look like a big bag.

I think the weight/cutting feeling comes from how thin the strap is.

Great accomplishment!

Thanks!

I can completely blame tpf. Someone posted pictures of their new bag and I couldn't resist. It was sold out but then yesterday it appeared on their website again. In my excitement and fear of missing out, I put the first style I saw in my shopping cart, then went back and decided I wanted a different style, but it said unavailable. So in my fear of not being able to get any of them, I bought the one in my cart. Then after I had checked out, the one I really wanted became available so I bought that one too. One or both will be returned.

It's a Brahmin bag.

I also bought a Coach bag from their factory online website about 10 days ago.

I can't seem to stop spending. Ever since Amazon Prime day, it seems I'm buying something nearly everyday. My food processor broke so I felt I had to get a new one. A tpfer posted pictures of their new bracelet from a brand I had never heard of, and the next thing you know, I bought some bracelets. At least they were really inexpensive, just costume jewelry.

Oh my goodness. I just fell over from the cuteness factor. I love foxes.

I know. They’re fairly adorable.

Oh my gosh the fox is so cute!!!

There’s always a good reason to buy handbags! I’m still considering selling the dinky but I’m not 100 percent on selling it yet. I love the way it looks and it barely costed me anything. The space it takes up is very small too. I’m in a place where I don’t want to force myself to sell things that I like just to have more space. If I like something, it serves a purpose to me.
