Thank you for your kind words and good wishes Elaine. We share a love of red bags. I hope you are getting a chance to pull out and wear your red beauties, too!I always flip for your red Chanel Reissue.
I hope the interview went well!

- I haven't carried a bag at all since March. I miss my bags, I'm hoping I can be comfortable to start carrying them again soon.
- I have 2 bags on my radar. The Hermes Evelyn, 29cm noir Clemence leather PHW. I waiting until Travel is safe again, then I get the bag through a personal shopper. The second bag is a Balenciaga city bag. I prefer the Chevre leather so those are hard to come by in good condition.
Fabulous pics of you, Coco and your Goyard. I love that it’s a red bag - so cheery!
The Goyard is pretty.
You and Coco are GORGEOUS!!!!
Thank you so much! Thank you! I love that it's red too - that's what made me hit BIN!
Love the Calvi pouch, great size.
I have Calvis in chevre and Epsom and to be honest the one Epsom is performing much worse. It is okay but looks quite bad and darkened in the corners. Chevre is sturdy and gets a shine. The problem with Epsom is that even though it is scratch resistant in doesn’t age well as it doesn’t patina. So yes, I guess you can keep it longer in original condition, but once it goes over that stage it doesn’t look good to me. I don’t love it for SLGs.
Wonderful tree and I love Coco so much. One of my BFs is getting a dog come January, a cousin of ours, and s/he will be called Coco too
Just the thought of someone out there in the world wearing this scarf for a Zoom meeting fills me with joy.
I hate Zoom underdressing. Aren’t the circumstances drab enough?
So nice. I love nutcrackers too. My best Christmas present last year was a vintage one from the 60s. I am hoping to get another one this year, sort of make it into a Christmas tradition...
Wonderful. I am a Christmas fanatic so love seeing all the Christmas decor here, keep it coming. We will get our tree on Thursday. Can wait.
For this weekend we have enough: tomorrow in Germany comes the Nikolaus. We will put socks out and he will fill them with chocolates, nuts and mandarines and, in our house, books and hats and mittens for the cold. We have put out the Advent calendars (one for the dog too) and the Advent crown and will light two candles for the 2nd of advent. And we have to set the nativity, which is a lot of work. This is the time of the year when I love living in Germany too.
Oh how I love Christmas.
That's what it felt like. Took it in today and wound up with a credit note. I'll probably get a new CSGM and buy a couple of Chevre Calvis PMs too.
Great stats for the year, @keodi . And you have wonderful bags to look forward to next year.
What color Balenciaga are you interested in? Last January (eek… that seems like so long ago!) I bought a Balenciaga City in Cassis, with SHW. It's Agneau, not Chèvre. Lovely and smooshy, though.
I probably posted a photo of it at the time, but here it is again:
This is the right time of year to get a CSGM. I'm wrapped up in one right now, snuggled by the fire. The sun hasn't been out all day. A good thing I made us a pot of stew for tonight's dinner!
Honestly, I haven't. Between sheltering in place, and then my neck issues, handbags haven't been a priority for me. Though I do love coming to this thread (my fave on tPF) and seeing everyone else's eye candy!
Hopefully in 2021, after the vaccine, and after surgery (yup, the final verdict is surgery, blech), I'll be strutting around with a red bag over my shoulder!
Good luck on your surgery! When is it scheduled?Honestly, I haven't. Between sheltering in place, and then my neck issues, handbags haven't been a priority for me. Though I do love coming to this thread (my fave on tPF) and seeing everyone else's eye candy!

Great stats keodi. I like the bags on your radar, the Evelyne is my most used bag.
Thanks! It's in a couple of weeks. Up at Stanford. I'll only be there overnight, which I'm glad of. Scary time to be in a hospital, although from what they've told me, the Stanford Hospital protocols are excellent. Of course I'll be Covid-tested the day before, and the surgery patients are kept on a Covid-negative floor. Still, I'll be glad to be IN, and then OUT, and then HOME again!
I’m sorry to hear the Calvi Pouch didn’t work out for you. Chevre Calvis in your favourite colours and a CSGM sound lovely.
Yes, I remember when you picked up this beautiful Bal!

Best wishes on your surgery Elaine. It’s scheduled in a couple of weeks? Before/after your birthday? Ack, sorry for that miserable birthday present. I am sure you’ll be in good hands.
My older DS got a Pneumonia diagnosis on his 2019 birthday and Covid socially distanced 2020 birthday wishes from the sidewalk, three weeks into home sheltering.
Sending hugs and good wishes your way!
I'm keeping you in my thoughts with the surgery. I'm glad you'll be in and out, and safe at home!
Me too! thats how I know I want the bag, it's been 10 months, and its still on my radar!I keep thinking about an Evelyne…
