Love the Ferragamos and the Neo Noe!

You have a wide range of beautiful classy colors.
You are so sweet - thank you!
Ah, thanks for the info. The small was the size I was eyeing! I like the shape of the Seaton too. It's definitely a classic and timeless style, so I think you made a good choice. Like @BowieFan1971, I wish I could see these bags in person. There is no Mulberry store or outlet near me.

Lovely selection of shoulder bags!

That blue-green Bottega bag is breathtaking!
Thank you sweetheart!
A little story time & a reveal.

A little background is needed so you’ll understand why I was running around the house screaming like a crazy person.

I’ve been looking for this color (or similar) for years. The closest I came was a Chanel flap 4/5 years ago that I passed on.

I first saw this on Farfetch last year. Because it was a seasonal color, I thought I would wait for an end of season sale. End of season however, it just disappeared. First miss

It came to outlets earlier this year. By the time I called however, the last one in the U.S. had sold - that morning. Second miss

Get an email from The Outnet about new arrivals. Decide to check it out & what do I find? I’ve never ordered anything so fast in my life.

Ferragamo Studio, small size. Pics don’t do the color justice. It’s a deep fuschia/raspberry IRL. It’s my dream color. Over the moon I was able to get this. Happy Early Birthday to me!
O. M. G!
Happy birthday - that’s SUCH a fantastic bag and color!
 
Nothing you haven’t all seen before but here are my shoulder bags. I’ve excluded my sliding chain bags and also my totes as they’ve been in other categories.

Coach western crossbody hobo. Love the embelishments and the silver hang tag. Lovely summery bag which I should carry more often!

Mulberry Tessie Hobo in Oxblood, really thick, squishy leather. It’s my colder months shopping bag. Must start using it now autum is here.

And large Loewe Basket, my holiday beauty. It’s bigger than it looks here.

I love all of these bags, in addition to your Seaton!
 
I apologize for being so random - between a visit form the Sweet Pea’s Fall Break, a sick employee, and PTO for 2 other employees- things have been busy.

Shoulder bags for me are bags primarily worn on my shoulder, but because I like a top handle too - many of mine have both and I carry them both ways … gee that made a lot of sense!

It is gorgeous. I am so happy you finally got one.
 
I wish I could see a Mulberry in person…it needs to be on my radar.
It’s a lovely brand but you have gorgeous bags!

I agree with regards other brands. I love looking at bags but do wonder if more stores would just fuel my habit further?!

Not random at all. I’m very glad you posted all these and the other wonderful bags! Love the Noe in leather with the contrast colour hints!

I think the smaller one will come up more on resale but perhaps not yet.

This is perfection! I love the colour. Happy birthday and congratulations.

Thanks so much!
 
@BowieFan1971 @Cookiefiend @More bags @dcooney4 @Katinahat thanks for the bag love and early birthday wishes.
Love how supportive & understanding this group is. I tried explaining to my son why this was so special, but he’s 13 and just thinks I’m a little crazy when it comes to bags. Which I am. But some are a little more special than others, and this is definitely special.

At just 13, you would think he could remember wanting something he wanted that seemed “crazy” to others. My son was obsessed with Thomas the Tank Engine and trains in general. At soccer games played on a nearby field bordering an active train track, he would stop in his tracks every time a train went past and verbally identify every car and engine type that passed by as the game was played around him. Though it did make the “what does DS want for Christmas/birthday/etc super easy for about 4-5 years. LOL

Gorgeous! So glad you were able to find it, and wishing you a very happy birthday in advance.

What is it about boys and trains? Mine was too. Still loves the big trains.

I think he looks at it as here she goes talking about bags…again. He doesn’t see what is so special about one bag versus another. Plus, he’s a cranky teenager.
