Our first brand week starts now - Sunday, Oct 31. Please share photos of bags from these brands:

Wonderful collection! Which is your favorite?

I’d say both Dionysus, the mini crystal white and the canvas and the ivory logo Jackie. Glad I added that in my collection before it became a classic! I also have the tattoo Boston bag which I like for travel (pic below because it’s stored with luggage). As you can tell Gucci is one of my favorites for handbags and leather goods

@missie1, gorgeous kelly! is it vache naturale? :smile:

i don’t have any Marc Jacobs; and, I haven’t had any gucci bags for years. I have a few Goyard St. Louis and ghurka, but cannot find pics right now. my current favorite H is my craie epsom mini Della cavalleria (with brunello RTW and doc martens); least used, but favorite H bag is a vintage, pristine, silver metallic chèvre clutch, phw (worn at a brunello cocktail with DH); most practical H day tote is etoupe 30B (with 2004 chanel skirt and CD knit jacket and with H RTW). Confession: the Manolo suede heels have not left the house yet lol (I took the action shot then wore the outfit with opaque stockings and golden goose sneakers

And, for @essiedub, two skirt outfits that could be worn with opaque stockings and doc martens
IMO to make the DM more grown up, a neutral dark (like navy and charcoal) palette helps. All black can be a bit too goth

last pic is H chaine d’ancre croc clutch and silver chèvre clutch

Thank you! You’re a Philly girl?!? Lived on 9th between Pine and Lombard for 7 years, among other places in Center City. Lived there for 11 years total, worked there even longer

I misread your Center City as Centre County :facepalm:. I have been in PA for almost 20 years now. Love Philly and Pitt but in the middle of the state!

How nice to see you, @Kimbashop[/USEbR] . I love your two bags and also your Goyard wallet.

thank you! It is great to be back.

[QUOTE="ElainePG, post: 34899098, member: 465452"]
[USER=594084]@Kimbashop , you inspired me this afternoon! When you wrote that you had acquired a PS1 Tiny, I began musing about how I had loved Proenza Schouler bags for years & years, but had never done anything about it. Well, December is my "birthday month," life has been piling up around me, and I decided that the time had come.

I didn't want to pay full price, though, so I set some limits. I had always thought the medium size would be right for my needs. And I also thought that the style would be best in a neutral color: tan, brown, or olive. Plus, if I found one at a good price pre-loved, it had to have a no-hassle return policy. So… inexpensive, medium size, very good condition, neutral color.

This is the one I found at Fashionphile (screenshot from FP site). I especially love the silver hardware. :heart: Happy birthday to meeeeeeeeeeee! :presents:

Congratulations! What a great neutral color. I would love to know how the medium works out for you. I have been thinking of getting one in that size. It is such a great bag.

The middle of the state is beautiful! I love the ride from Carlisle to King of Prussia on the TP. And I went to Pitt…Pgh is a great town! Primanti Bros and O fries…the best!
