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

December Bag Challenge Bag #1
Proenza Schouler tote. Leather on this bag is just so dreamy and smells so wonderful! I braved wearing her despite spraying my hands a lot with alcohol. I wore this several times.

Bag #2 - Longchamp Le Pliage Club bag for a checkup at a clinic (no photo)

Bag #3 - Givenchy medium Pandora for an office day (no office shot though)


We’re still allowed to work from home but we have to report to the office as may be needed. Tomorrow is one of those days. I don’t know yet which bag I will take. I actually don’t want to switch out, but I’m mindful of this challenge.

I love this shade of navy but the contrasting bright blue will limit it's suitability for many outfits.

I'm loving all the Astra reveals! I wouldn't worry about the bright blue. It's such a small amount that it simply lifts anything you put it against. Congrats!

Couple of days late but some pics from Saturday.

That Gucci has very quickly become one of my favourites since you posted the reveal. It's so elegant but fun! I love the colours.

Bag number 4 for December- YSL Muse

Wow, brown and black. I would never have thought they'd go so well together. It's lovely!

Bag 3: Hermes Etain Bolide 31

The Bolide is gorgeous but it's the scarf that's making my heart sing!

Bag #3 - Givenchy medium Pandora for an office day (no office shot though)

Love your PS tote! I hardly see them (usually I spot PS1 bags). Is this the one that has a red lining?
What colour is your Pandora? It looks in between brown and wine to me...

Odd to say on this thread, but I hope you bag one soon, I couldn't live without mine.

Thank you! I'm also in the market for a white cdc with PHW, i'm just not sure if I should get epsom or swift.

I received a bag today that I'm sort of torn about in both form and function. I love this shade of navy but the contrasting bright blue will limit it's suitability for many outfits..I put this one together with all navy pieces with a fun RGB slogan, "not fragile like a flower, fragile like a bomb." I think it works with this ensemble but it's not going to be easy to pair this bag with my wardrobe but perhaps in summer much easier with dark denim shorts and a solid top. ‍♀

Beautiful bag!

I took the day off looking at screens yesterday and spent the day with a friend out walking, and today I had a call with an eye specialist who's given me exercises to do 'till Friday when I see him IRL.

Couple of days late but some pics from Saturday. The Gucci Leonardo-print tin is full of traditional Italian biscuits, and I haven't opened the other yet, but they're both presents from my SA and SM. I'm glad I wore my new Gucci things to go in, there must be a satisfaction of seeing clients wearing their things and not just buying.

Champers at Hermes where I returned my Calvi MM. Hope I'll be able to swap for a CSGM at the weekend, but waiting for the word on a transfer. Once the credit note is spent, I'll order a custom Calvi (or 2). One for cards and one for business cards. No more Calvi MMs or GMs unless they do them in Swift (or another fab leather).

You look great @papertiger! lovely presents!

I love the Muse! this one is very unique with the black/brown combo. I had a black one years ago, I then passed it on to my sister.

Bags 4, 5 and 6 (oops) for the December challenge. I'm basically grabbing a different bag for each errand I run.
I've shared the first two before: Coach ombre, KS Owl bag. The third is the Halston suede convertible clutch.
The Halston is actually a brick red suede, it came out brighter in the photo. Definitely in my top 10 bags of my collection. The interior of the flap is glovetanned leather.
Looking forward to rotating the 6 bags for the rest of the month.

The bolide CSGM combo is so beautiful! Is the CSGM a version of Jardin d Maharajah? Would love to learn more about it and it’s colorway if possible!

Looking fabulous with your gucci. I am glad you had fun there.

This is a stunning set. I wish I could touch silk because the colors on that scarf are just my cup of tea.

These are beautiful. The color on the Givenchy is one of my favorite bag colors.

My PS tote has black suede lining. Feels very luxe! And my Pandora is in Oxblood.

These are beautiful. The color on the Givenchy is one of my favorite bag colors.

Mine too!! My Mulberry small zipped Bayswater is my other “big” bag in oxblood!

Ooooh custom Calvis! What would you order?

I was about to ask, which CSGM !
p.s. I love Italian cookies! What a considerate gift from SM and SA!

Looks like glove leather, so rich and fabulous

The leather is amazing @papertiger. Not as delicate as glove leather- fairly sturdy indeed- but soft to the touch and very rich.

It was really thirsty when the bag arrived and enjoyed a nice drink of Collonil and a finishing wipe down with my Elephant drenched cloth while the hairdryer was warming it up. I fixed the rubbed corners with a mixture of brown acrylic leather paint and black Leather Fresh.

I think it´s suitable for simply being used without fussing about it.

The price was very good (the seller had it on the classifieds with only a few meaningless pictures and no real information and only started sending the pictures I needed to see when asked. Had she provided all the information right away in her listing the bag would have been snapped up in no time.)

I am ready to let it go into daily use.

Well, that is the money I got for a box of clothes I didn´t need and want anymore turned into a very fine bag. Upgrading!

This bag is quite a statement!
I think it clashes very nicely with your outfit- a great stylistic inconsistency with this bag, that would blend in seamlessly with a recent ladylike elegance/ business style outfit or go vintage with a Claude Montana or Mugler.
