2023 Resolution: Shopping my Own Bags and SLG Collection

A long standing tradition in this thread is to remind ourselves of how wonderful our own collections are by showcasing them. We can see how far we have come, collection wise, and we reminded that we have all (or most of) what we need making it easier to shop our own closets.



• New theme weeks start each Sunday

• Don’t jump ahead but, if you miss a week, please do show your bags “late”.

• Show bags individually or in a group

• You do NOT have to wear the bags that week

• For added fun, show old pictures from previous years to demonstrate how you have curated it over time.

• This is completely voluntary. There is no pressure to post at any time.





So what are the showcases? In the Fall, we group our bags by makers! Feel free to show bags, small leather goods, or however it is easiest to organize!

August 13 - Balenciaga, Bottega Veneta

August 20 - Burberry, Celine

August 27 - Coach, Chanel

September 3 - Chloe, Dior

September 10 - Dooney & Bourke, Fendi

September 17 - Ferragamo, Givenchy

September 24 - Goyard, Gucci

October 1 - Hermes, Kate Spade

October 8 - Loewe, Longchamp

October 15 - Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs

October 22 - Michael Kors, Miu Miu

October 29 - Mulberry, Prada

November 5 - Proenza Schouler, Rebecca Minkoff

November 12 - Saint Laurent, Tods

November 19 - Tory Burch, Valentino

November 26 - Bags by Jewelers: Bulgari, Cartier, Tiffany Co, Van Cleef & Arpels. Alternatively, the pillboxes, compacts and other lovelies made by jewelers that fit in your bag.

December 3 - independent artisans and custom bags.

Just getting caught up and am loving all the eye candy everyone has posted. All beautiful bags. Unfortunately, a water heater leak seeped from garage into house and has damaged my bamboo floors and caused mold, so I have been displaced from my house for a few weeks now and don't have access to my handbags unless I run home to grab something specific/make a switch. I am traveling to Denver today and need to run home to grab a sweater and jeans since it will be cold there. I am crunched for time as I need to depart for airport in a couple of hours but I will try to snap a couple quick photos I can share later. I found photo I had of my one Dior bag which I shared, but think I missed a couple of other weeks (one Chanel, one Burberry) and have a few Fendis I can share.

Oh no it's crazy how much damage water can do so rapidly. Hope you can get back home soon
Have a good trip

I'm so sorry, I know he feeling well (we won't go there :ok:)

I hope the floors are salvageable and you are able to get full access to your full handbag wardrobe soon.

Don't worry about missing weeks, you can always catch-up and just jump in.

Oh no, mold. Hope everything is okay. My mom had mold in one of her places and it was very expensive to remove. Travel safely!
 
I have one Dooney & Bourke bag currently. I used to have a few vintage Fendi bags but I don't have them anymore. They were all the kind with the stripes. I felt self conscious carrying them.

Beautiful color and I love the charm!
I'm going to be missing my old Dooney and Bourke this week. @whateve 's pictures has already started it. Not one of the bags I have now are as comfortable to carry as my D&B hobo. It's no longer with me, but a pic in remembrance.

I wore this bag to death, until the strap literally came apart on one end. Maybe I'll replace it one day. Look at how dark the handle had become!
I hope you do replace the strap - there's nothing like a well loved bag. :love:
So I have loved Fendi since I was a young girl I didn’t realize how much I actually had until this thread. One of my workhorses is a Fendi chain bag. My prized bag is a vintage piece from the 80s that belonged to my grandmother. My croc peekaboo minis I’m obsessed with. My mini monster bucket isn’t in my camera roll so I will take pic later. Also the tan Kani I bag I got rid of. Still kicking myself about that one. I have coats and shoes as well.

oh dear... that is awful. Awful awful...
We're getting ready to take all the carpet up in the basement - I have to confess that I am terrified that there might be mold.
I don't have Dooney , although as a teen and young adult I used to admire their bags in Macys and loved the duck.
I have my one fendi to show for this week; the turquoise peekaboo.
