Here’s a staple in my bag herd, one I invariably bring on travels because it’s small, light, roomy for its size, and with its metallic sheen it goes from day to dinner. It’s my go- to for this tourist-y visit to my son’s “new” life here.

Lovely! I really like the taupe colours. And as we all know I am totally in for stocking up on one style in various colours. :)

I agree absolutely, Ludmilla. :ghi5:

Stocking up on one style is the way to go especially when it’s an older style no longer offered. *

(*filed under “any excuse will do” to continually add more bags to the ones I already have.) :whistle:

Still no new bag for me…:sad:
I am still thinking of the Alaia bag though.

What a great fun bag, Mariapia! :clap:

Perfect for summer, colorful but not garish. :heart:

As for the Alaia of your dreams, I think you’re wise to hold off until you decide whether or not it’s a bag you can live without. :hugs:

The day is finally here, fellow Islanders! :party:

I have yet again survived another year despite my dubious moral compass. :whistle:

Case in point: though I was supposed to wait until today to open my birthday present from my older sister, late yesterday afternoon I checked the dismal weather forecast for today and took the precaution of opening my present early to take a pic of it in its best light. :sneaky:

A beautiful blue Tuscan Leather made in Italy bag from their Fiordaliso line. :presents:

Purse in hand, planning on a low key birthday today. :speedy:

First stop will be at our local hardware store where my DH plans on shopping for my birthday gift. :search:
After that he’s taking me to lunch to my favorite Napoli pizza place.:popcorn:

Then (despite the dismal cold rainy weather) to our favorite outdoor farm market for ice cream. :facepalm:

Your older sister has taste, Fim. :tup:
Your Tuscan leather bag is a real gem.
Bravo, bravo, bravo.
