Hi everybody! I'm hoping I can find a home here, even though I will be purchasing my first luxury bags in the future. Right now my collection consists of thrift store finds, Kate Spade, Michael Kors, Coach, Dooney, Maxx New York, Kenneth Cole, an older Ferragamo, a Marino Orlandi and a very strange purple quilted patent leather with brown leather trim that was made by a company called Jenifer Julia that appears to have shut down in 2011, but I have no other info on.
Welcome!!
 
Happy Saturday, fellow Islanders! :beach:

I freely admit that these days when comes to buying bags I’m most definitely an impulse buyer. :rolleyes:

But in a good way? :whistle:

The trick is know the difference between an irresistible impulse and the impulse that should be resisted. :choochoo:

Of the two, the latter is always the one that saves me from myself while the former never disappoints. :speedy:

Case in point: While shopping one day I actually considered buying a random Patricia Nash bag for no better reason than to add to my collection.. :sleepy:

When I literally seized upon this Stella Bianca bag… :loveeyes:

Simply irresistible. :love:

True, Fim, absolutely irresistible.
Both the design and the colour are to die for.
Congrats on your beautiful Stella Bianca bag.:dothewave::dothewave:

I couldn’t agree more, Mariapia. At this point in my life I can’t carry a heavy bag (no matter how wonderful) comfortably. :shrugs:
I have noticed that, these days, lots of women inquire about its weight when they are particularly interested in a bag. And lots of websites now
include the weight in the description of their bags.
Longchamp was one of the first….:smile:
