WOW....5 bags, that is impressive!!! I have definitely slimmed down my collection BUT not to only 5 bags! But I have adopted the policy of 1 bag in 1 bag out, so that helps keeping it manageable.



Vyda - when I get done, I will only have four handbags. Well, five. And four wallets. LOL. My OMG Closet will be pretty much empty, and that's OK. I may need to quit tPF again to make it happen. This place is bad for me.:nuts:
 
WOW is right! I used to have about 7 bags total to keep it manageable, and then it totally went out of control a couple months ago when I got extra Christmas money from relatives. I only buy if I sell something and don't use my CC so it's been easy to stay within budget ... well, not EASY since i'm always lusting after bags, but as long as I stay within that trend then I don't feel like I'm being terrible.

sooooo... TOTALLY out of the blue, a fedex truck guy knocks on my door when it's really dark in the evening (can't get used to it being dark so early) and drops off a box from Ideeli! I got sooo excited opening the box since i knew that it had the pushover in it.

OMG, the natural pushover is soooo lovely! it was :heart: at first sight. it IS a huge bag. it'd be perfect for if I was back in college. lol it's that huge... well at least on me. from just glancing at it, I think it's bigger than my Tano Tumbleweed.

photos will have to come later. i'm having some morning allergy issues... *achoo!*

Oh wow, you'll also need some comparison shots with the Tumbleweed. Dying to see pics of your new PUSHOVER!
 
I think it's an older grey one. The stitching isn't as hot pink as cement. I had a grey snootie patootie with pink stitching back in the day with the same coloring

I think I tend to be conservative on condition with these because I've seen some bigmouth hobos in really filthy shape around town and am not sure how easy it would be to self clean these bags vs my usual stuff.
 
I think they are pretty easy to clean. I've cleaned a couple myself with good results and I actually kinda dig 49 sq bags a little on the beat up side. I think it sort of adds to the Bohemian look of the bag.
