That sounds like a very fun weekend project! Handbags and closet organization. Both right up my alley!@dcooney4 said:
Could you put most facing forward and ones of similar style behind another with just a third showing from behind.
My last three bags (2 Jimmy Choo buckets and the large Prada Galleria) are the room hogs. So I’m gong to try to figure out a way to display the buckets in a unique way and slide the Prada in sideways. Reorganizing my collection is my weekend project.
@cecchetti and @Bag peace, sending hugs to both of you during these trying times. And an advanced happy birthday to you both, as well. Hang in there! We’re here for you.
Love your Ferragamo's! I am a huge fan of the brand and they are definitely underrated.
Beautiful range of browns. So glad you de-lurked!
Thanks!! I’m loving it here 🤗
Obviously missed the beginning, but 2025 has been a crazy year so far.
My goals:
My goals:
- No more than 10 SLGs
- Watch out for impulse buys
- No aspirational shopping
- Use the bags & shoes that did not get used last year. I have a large collection, so rotating is a challenge
- Purge (some)...I have hoarder tendencies & need to let go of things that no longer suit my life or taste
- But less than last year
- Continue to focus on my fitness. I fell off the wagon when I sprained my ankle so I need to get focused again

I had a family occasion last night. Obviously, very sad DH couldn't be there, he really would have enjoyed it.
Forced myself to make the most of the beautiful day yesterday so I booked a slot with one of my favourite textile dealers. He doesn't normally get RTW but he had some Hermès and Chanel.
Took my beautiful Bolide to carry gifts and a vintage Loewe cross-body. No pic of my Loewe, but you've seen it before.
After consideration, I couldn't leave 2 Hermès pieces. A pristine jacket from Margiela's first collection (AW98) for Hermès and 1980s pink silk skirt with no side seams. I'm not sure if the print comes from a scarf detail but I will investigate further. I am on the fence about a Chanel suit. I also bought a couple of SL 70s scarves to make into a blouse. It's a good thing he doesn't sell vintage bags
