NOVEMBER ACTIVITIES

1. Bags by Brand Showcase!

Each week, share photos of your bags from the specified brands. Choose a posed “beauty” shot or get your bags out and about in action shots!

We highlight 3 brands per week: 2 premier and 1 contemporary in alphabetical order as listed on tPF. Any brands not listed are showcased in our last week. Brands change to the next set each Sunday.

Our first brand week starts now - Sunday, Oct 31. Please share photos of bags from these brands:
  • Bottega Venetta
  • Burberry
  • Alexander Wang

Tip: Grab your photos from last year in the 2020 resolution thread. Search your user name and the brand to find your photos.

2. Special Stories
Thanks @Claudia Herzog for the suggestion

Wear a bag that has a backstory involving a person, place, or opportunity for which you feel grateful.

@More bags, great minds think alike! :biggrin: I love your animalicious and your LV prune. Around the time of the leoleila (a popular H leopard currently living in my moms closet) , I got the classic LV leopard and the blue gray (my favorite color) leopard. I love how easily the LV molds and drapes.
for @BowieFan1971, my black and white leopard silk mouselline remnant; it’s translucent when opened up and enormous. I’ve also been wearing camo lately ( I think of it as man made leopard).

@indiaink, I love your bone cuff! It looks amazing on you!
@SouthernPurseGal, love the dempsey shirt as per @doni’s recommendation. Very crisp!

Thanks @880. I am twins with you on the LV Leopard Stole and I have a similar one in the grey/black. :ghi5:
Also twinning with you on the lodge cast iron pan, I use it often. Mmm, duck, I am sure it was delicious. Thanks for all the scarf links, will check them out.
@ksuromax thank you for the leather comparison. Your Lily collection is outstanding!
@jblended great red and white bag. More amazing, congratulations on resisting 7 bags. That’s amazing especially when they are physically in your hands and significantly on sale.
@Jereni your outfit pics are gorgeous. Kudos on planning to wear all your bags/seasonally appropriate bags in January! I love your PS1 crossbody and your Peekaboo and Choo heels.
@Purses & Perfumes thanks for your kind words. I look forward to travelling again and I have already looked to see if my favourite travel destinations have Delvaux boutiques! :graucho:

I saw this article entitled Getting Rid of Stuff; How to Declutter Quickly (with this quote, everything you buy makes each thing you own a little less valuable. I thought of your post which I am positive I will return to again ans again! Hugs

Thank you so much for the article. It's true that the more we accumulate, the less we value each thing. Love the Annoying Bag idea and will be using that myself. :flowers:

I started some serious declutter action on this pile of papers, stuff and boxes and corner of my dining room last night!

Best of luck! It will be a big relief when it's done.

Thank you! This thread is like an angel on my shoulder, whispering 'shop your own' whenever I want to stray! :lol:

Edit: I should clarify that I was never going to go home with all 7! I'm nuts but not nutty enough to purchase 7 bags at once. Though the outing was like a scene out of a movie, where each store had items that were more tempting than the last and I was doing the mental gymnastics weighing up the pros and cons at every step! :lol:

OH no!!! I was going to ask if you had to write some kind of letter to the seller, but didn't get a chance.I don't know if that's a thing or not. I am so sorry, SPG.

Oh I did, I explained all the details why I love it but I was too busy driving 3.5hrs after the showing to get it to her before she decided and signed the first offer but she got it this morning and has read it. I wish I would have pulled off the road and written and sent it on my phone instead of trying to get the driving over with first.:cursing::crybaby::frown:

I carried another bag to my followup appointment with the eye doctor. It's a Coach Emery. My eye has recovered nicely.

Today's bag is from the challenge to carry our least used bags. A black Ferragamo satchel that I got pre-loved.

I guess I'm the only one with love for monogramed items. I could have bought that gold Tiffany watch with what I just spent in monogramed and photo printed items. I think this intensive sellers market in Atlanta is making me stress shop! Oh well, we all needed new luggage.

I'm driving the next 3 hours to a great house with a great school zone and great backyard oasis and chefs kitchen. They were about to accept an offer but we are now in the game! Fingers crossed we get it.

Thank you! :flowers: Purses and beautiful wood are two things I really love. I credit Daddy for my appreciation, and love, of wood - and beautiful wooden furniture.
