What an elegant bag, congratulations!
Thank you so much!
I'm looking at all the great bag statistics here and hoping to have good bag statistics (good usage and low purchases) in 2021!
Squeee! I think you snuck some extra pictures in here. Your outfits and bags are amazing, I especially love the coats. My favourites are the ones in the last two pics.Thank you so much for the info! It’s stunning with your bag pairing!
agree with @jblended re @cowgirlsboots sentiment on the true value of our bags and the safe haven here.
@momasaurus, I have no words re your two story tree and your DH, but im so glad you had not started to decorate
December bag challenge (I wear a lot of blue and black year round) black barenia B30; JPG fringe kelly, Blu obscure; 28box kelly (color similar to blue abysse)
have also worn a Victoria 35 (here is one in ebene) two 35 trim II bags (olive green Togo or natural barenia). Re shopping the closet, I’m good at wearing bags. It’s coats that sometimes don’t see the light of day in years (reversible shearling, vintage dead stock Norman Norell grey coat; dead stock teddy bear animal print; (vintage from my own closet) max Mara.

Thank so much, @More bags! BTW, I want to go back and look at your book recommendations. not sure if it was @ElainePG who shared a long list, but I need to look for that too.Squeee! I think you snuck some extra pictures in here. Your outfits and bags are amazing, I especially love the coats. My favourites are the ones in the last two pics.
I did edit to add more pics. Someone mentioned that sometimes threads get cluttered with individual thank you or other responses, so I decided even if it meant going back to edit, I would start doing that. Another TPFer kindly showed me how to multiquote, but I seem to have to start a new post dor that, so I’d rather just tag the individual.
I adore jackets and coats and RTW even more than bags, and I didn’t wear my stuff dor a long time (ankle surgery, hysterectomy, wrist issues, lower back disc compression and nerve issues, weight gain, you name it). so covid was my chance to take stock and take better care of myself, lose weight, eat more healthfully, and, yes, shop my closet. would be easy to have spent 2020 in exercise leggings, but I felt better as the weight came off and I wanted to wear my stuff.
@keodi, congrats on your year end stats! Your numbers seem super restrained for December and the holiday season!
@doni, just curious, how are you finding your faco clutch? There was a new poster on the BV bag of the day thread that was asking about a Loewe color block puzzle bag that made me think of yours. The Loewe was a cool neutral color palette, but there was a light taupe or camel in there.
@papertiger, did you wear the Gucci Aviation during this months challenge? Forgot if I said that my mom also thinks I have old fashioned taste
That accounts for a lot of the appeal.

"You took the words right out of my mouth,"@papertiger!
The bags I like seem to be getting rarer and start to appear at prices I won´t pay.
The first Trailer Trash bags I bought years ago were incredibly cheap (and still I worried about their authenticity- they are the real thing!) but that´s obviously over. It does not make sense to wait for gift horse prices like this, so any listing at a nice or even decent price compared to the average automatically catches my interest. I really want them! And even that most bags for sale now do need work can´t put me off.
I don´t regret! I´m happy to have found them and will keep lurking in the shadows ready to pounce.
Great bag and great idea! Wear everything you love all the time!
I didn´t consider wearing a bag for cooking the new years eve dinner, but took the challenge to wear a velvet evening gown and my cocktail fur jacket...
DH gifted me a string of pearls he had just found in a secret compartment of his grandfather´s desk and they needed the right backdrop.
You found something that’s YOU, a signature! And something that will only get rarer as time goes by. I think that’s great!
