Felt a need to bring out a Louis. A speedy!

Beautiful! I have a wishlist of older LV Speedy bags that I would like to own.
Lucky you...only ones I've seen have been in the arms of a beautifully dressed older woman whom I got into conversations with precovid times. She was amazed that I know who it was.

I got luck as well...thinking I was buying a fake for the parts, found that my $10 briefcase was a real vintage 90s Mullberry.

Love the beautiful weaving.
Haha. No. This will take a while. Maybe end of Nov?
You have to content yourself with my Flo.

Gorgeous bag.
Another beautiful bag.
 
Happy Thursday, fellow Islanders! :wave:

A recent snarky comment from my argumentative younger sister concerning my bags has gotten me thinking. :thinking:

Typical of her less than cheery outlook on life, she‘d asked what I planned to do with all my bags after I died? :confused1:

Given her execrable taste in all things fashion, I assured her that she wouldn’t have to worry about it. :whistle:

Nevertheless, her remark got me thinking about the handful of bags
that I own but never wear. :rolleyes:

Happily, upon being donated to our local Community Action Thrift Shop, they were immediately sold within a couple of days, their proceeds going to help fund our Community Action’s upcoming food drive. :clap:

As for me, my latest obsession with comfortable well made wide shoulder straps is going ahead full speed and will soon make their debut here on our Island. :giggle:
 
Happy Friday, fellow Islanders! :wave:

Going with one of my favorite vintage Patricia Nash bags today. :hbeat:

Deceptively roomy for all my essentials and a joy to wear, for some reason this particular bag was discontinued only later to be reintroduced in a much smaller size and far less craftsmanship. :blah:
I understand why your Patricia Nash is a joy to wear, Fim.
The design, the leather and the colour are to die for.
:dothewave:
