She´s such a darling dog! ❤ And so well behaved next to the Christmas tree and all the parcels. Wow! A friend of mine has a dog who given the chance would already have toppled the tree over and ripped every single present in search of things to steal...
Have you ever seen the old (really, REALLY old) Disney cartoon with Mickey, Pluto, the Christmas tree, and the two chipmunks? That's another one we watch every year! :lol:
 
December Challenge: Carry five different bags
Bag 1:
Chanel Silver Metallic Reissue Camera Case
View attachment 4919054
Gorgeous bag, and beautifully posed with your pen and your H scarf. I know which scarf it is… it's the one with the cat coming of the flower… but for the life of me I can NOT remember the name of it! Baobab something??? At any rate, the combination is striking.

Many of these are favorites for me, as well. Donna Tartt's "The Goldfinch" is one I really ought to reread pretty soon. But a few are new to me. I'm not familiar with "Lord of the Barn Yard." Off to the library! :dog:
I loved it, and I think it's beautifully written. I read some recent reviews of it though and it's about 50/50 - some people love it, some do not.
 
It is fabulous! I love it but I carry large bags for work do that what I’d use it for.

Thank-you @Katinahat ! I couldn´t resist to buy it... bad, bag girl!
The price was nice and the bag spoke to me- like a casual "light-version" of the Birkin style.
I don´t go out to work, but thought it would come handy later, when we can travel again, as this drag along with anything but the kitchen sink inside bag that won´t be too delicate to sit between my feet on long car journeys.
I´m excitied to see it in person now!

Thank you @ElainePG! You have a sharp eye with scarves! You are right, it’s Baobab Cat Silk 90!

I can’t believe it’s December again already. I remember this thread, but last year’s version, as I told you all about succumbing to purchasing my black Mulberry Lily for my impromptu trip to London for New Year. It was a sudden trip caused by avoiding the aftermath of being dragged into the crossfire of a family conflict which was nothing to do with me.

Fortunately my DH, DDs and I had a great time in a gorgeous hotel. Lily came to the musical theatre to see a show and to a wonderful restaurant the following night. It was the only holiday I took this year! Little did I know it was just the start of a crazy year where everyone has had a difficult time. Things have continued to be a bit tough for me in addition to COVID and the lovely Lily is on my shelf hardly used. In addition to a few other things, I’m still waiting for some repeat medical results with fingers crossed. I’m distracting myself looking at your lovely bags so please keep sharing lots of images.

I was inspired by @More bags to start my bag stats in January and have a year’s piechart to share at some point, although it’s far from representative of what bags I might have used had things been different. I’m intending to share towards the end of the month if that’s ok?

The 5 bag challenge is a great one this month. Ideally I’d like to use bags I’ve not used recently but for now it’s two repeats from November.

1. Coach Central Zip Signature Tote - wipeable and practical for work for the 1st and 2nd.
2. New Mulberry Alexa. Carried to work so I could easily walk to a medical appointment today with it slung on crossbody. It’s practical and stylish! I love it.

I think I can rotate my work bags quite easily to get up to 5 but am not sure how to use my evening bags when not going out! Any tips?

I loved your storytelling of your New Year 2020 trip! I think a black Lily on a London trip sounds fabulous and you were able to make some good memories with your family. Many of our bags are getting more rest on the shelf this year than any of us anticipated. Congratulations on tracking your bag usage! :clap:
I remember you made a beautiful colour coordinated to your bag colours pie chart. Is that your newest Alexa rereleased bag you are referring to in November carries?
Sending positive vibes your way for good medical results. :hugs:

Thanks @More bags. I really appreciate your positive vibes!
It is my rereleased Alexa that I carried in November and now in December too. It’s coming with me again to work tomorrow along with my sports bag and running gear to go out with a friend after work for exercise and a chat. Other socialising is pretty much banned so this is a good at to meet up. Alexa won’t actually be coming for that part of the day as she’s not into exercise! :lol:

I also wore this H Bouquets Sellier Silk 90, pic from the internet. It is loud and didn’t really go with the bag. I guess I gravitated to red today. The scarf was a confidence booster for a second interview on a Zoom call. The bag was carried for school run ... you’ll notice a pattern here. :lol:
