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.

Only one metallic bag in my collection- and I already showed it as a grey bag...

Anselm Reyle for Dior, limited edition, Lady Dior Rendez-Vous wallet on chain, 2011

So pretty, the red stitching really pops!
Only one metallic for me, more like iridescent. The LV sunset boulevard pochette in vernis leather. I think I’d like to add a gold or silver in my collection at some point too.

#2 and 3 were purchased in 2020. The others I've had for years.

They are beautiful!
I especially love the Brahmin!

Lovely!
 
I'm still learning about what bags I prefer and I think this would be a lifelong lesson. My needs may evolve as time goes on. In the past, I never thought I would do structured bags or hand/arm-carry bags - but since the last year, I started liking both structured and hand carry bags. I'm not sure if I would ever be at purse peace, at least not forever, as my requirements and preference may change with time. I think this is also the fun part of curating my collection, I'm constantly learning about what I like :smile:

I wish I was also at the point of being done in terms of my collection but lately it’s become clear to me that I’m still learning too.

Gorgeous metallics! The blue on that Coach is just divine.
