[Sparkletastic]

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.

Thanks! I love it! They still had one in the store in Las Vegas when I was there in March.

Thank you so much. The bags you have been using are so chic . I love that you are not letting this pandemic stop you from wearing them

Thank you dc!

Beautiful! Love it with that scarf.

Thank you Jen.

What teal bags were you looking at? It’s a color I’m wanting this season. Just got it in a really inexpensive Coach Marlie so that I can see how often I wear the color before considering anything by premier designers.

This is a beautiful colour, great looking bag Jereni! I don’t have my eye on any particular bag. I saw a dark turquoise Coco Handle on a reseller site. <I already have a Coco Handle.> I saw a turquoise Chanel Square Mini. <So cute and likely too small for a day bag for my lifestyle/what I like to carry.> Celine’s Amazone colour is interesting, too.

Twins! I picked her up at the outlet last week. Clearance PLUS an extra 15%! Went in to see if they had anything good since I still had that credit from Christmas and didn’t see anything online. Going to give my Halzan dupe to a friend who is feeling down and loves small bags...I don’t need two teal bags about the same size.View attachment 5056062

Congrats, great looking bag!

Love all of these! Gorgeous bags and stunning photos! The colors are so luscious!

Thanks dear 880.

@More bags What an extraordinary collection of bags. What is the color of your bolide? Is it a grey? That camera bag is

Thanks Kimbashop! My Bolide is Etain.

Do love that Coco handle! And, of course, the Bolide...

Thank you so much BowieFan!

YAS twin!!! How are you liking it? I feel like it’s crazy utilitarian.

The color I’m currently dreaming of is the BV ‘mallard’ but I need another BV like I need a hole in the head

I successfully sold the Amaranto mini pouch - makes me sad because I did love the color but in the end it just wasn’t able to hold as much as I wanted it to. Looking to sell the Arco next.

This is a beautiful colour, too. I’m sorry some recent acquisitions aren’t working out for you. The good thing is that you’re getting them out of your house so you can make more room for bags you will love.

Happy Friday! Hope everyone is well.

Using the lovely Kaffe Tabby this weekend to run errands.

What a fun bag, so pretty!

I have been really looking at my bags. Some I was keeping because my daughter thought they were nicer than my most often used bags. I have now decided I am only going to go by what I really use or adore. This month of trying not to buy has had me really focused on what I already have and what I really use. So to that end I dropped another bag at the consignment shop, along with some jewelry and clothes.

Wow dc, you are on fire! Congratulations!

I love most used bags!

Thanks so much keodi!

Thank you! I gotta tell you, I have not been so excited about a bag in a long while! I am going to wait till you get yours and hear your thoughts and then I am going to twin with you! did you specify the color and Leather etc? How long did it take? Do share

Actually it was a bag she made to put in her online store and I bought it before she had a chance to put it up. I happened to ask what she had been making lately and she showed it to me! Fate!

I loooove your black Coach bags and Manhattan MK, so impressive with the colors against the black! I'm waiting for a delivery this week to post my embellished/jewelled collection!

 

[doni]

I am so falling behind I cannot find which bag @BowieFan1971 has purchased... But just to say, if PM believes the dustbag to be fake they absolutely should/cannot send it to you. And if it is an Hermes (I understand) I concur, maybe better to do an authentication yourself too.
Now, I will continue to explore the thread in the hope of getting up to date.

Ah, a Bolide, great bag! Is that Courchevel?

 

[BowieFan1971]

It’s Courcheval. Bag was made in 1997. There are some other, closeup pics. Have Bababebi on standby to authenticate when the bag gets here. I hate to spend $80 just to get a thumbs up, but....

Ooh ...are you tempted? I love the little detials

Tempted, but I don’t need them. I am on Ban Island due to my Bolide and can definitely resist at least until she gets here!!!!
There are some other great bags on there too, but I really liked those. I wanted you all to see she had some nice stuff worth looking at!
