A few new pieces of history..... image heavy!

Thank you for sharing all of these amazing bags with us. I have never seen bags like them so it was great to see all of the detail pictures. You have quite a collection - you definitely need to open a museum!

In the meantime I think you should use a clean white wall, free of any other artwork, put either small hooks or small shelves scattered around the wall, and have all your bbags out like artwork!

Mimi; Those are the most beautiful and unique B-bags I have ever seen!! Each one is gorgeous in it's own way. Thanks so much for sharing with us your special beauties!! Congrats and enjoy them all!!
 
mimi!! amazing.. beyond words!! your collection is to die for. Are there any that you own that you never carry because of rarity? or do you rotate them with your outfits?

2003 Fall/Winter Lilac Hobo/Messenger with pewter hardware. LOVE LOVE LOOOOOVE the color and leather on this baby! It's so awesome. It's this really washed vintage looking lilac, with a lot of gray undertones. The leather is incredible, thick, soft, and sooo wrinkly and perfectly vintage.

This is becoming one of my favorite styles, its perfect - nice and big, and can be worn as a hobo or messenger, and everywhere in between since it has about 10 different placed holes so you can adjust the strap to your desired length and style!

Mimi,
Your bags are amazing! You have such a great eye. Is the Messenger style still made?
