I like to match, too, and I also match metal colors! I bought my Legacy bag the day after they were in the stores and I really struggled with the brass hardware because everything else I have is silver. I carry a tote with me to work and I had to have something that matched! So, I ended up getting a Gallery Tote with brass hardware to carry with it. As for accessories like wallets, etc. I have a B/W mini signature accordian wallet that I use with pretty much everything. I leave it sit open in my purse and it's pretty much unseen by everyone, including myself. It's got a black zipper so it goes with everything. I also have a solid black leather accordian wallet that I sometimes use but it has a silver zipper so I wouldn't dare use that with my Legacy stuff.No I like to match. And I don't mix brands for the most part. I'm also one of those people who won't mix metal colors. Drives my Mom crazy! LOL.
