Bags or SLG's - what excites you more?

SLGs ftw 😅

I love SLG!
I feel like I have the bags I want and need (if not counting a few daydreams but am content for now) so SLG is a great way of renewing things whenever I need a little pick-me-up. My wallets used to be a bit on the sad side, so lately I've acquired a few nice wallets from Longchamp, Chloe and Diane von Furstenberg. Also, some clutches and pouches have found their way into my bag closet.
I think smaller items are a great way of having a piece of high end luxury in your possession even when you don't have the money or the need for a bigger piece like a bag.
F.e. I can totally see myself buying a preloved Chanel quilted large wallet at some point. I don't think I could ever buy a bag from them, much less want to, but a wallet or coin pouch - most likely I will have one some day.

Funny you should say that - I always test a brand by purchasing an SLG before I buy a bag. I just can't like Chanel bags and Dior never appealed either. But I did buy a coin purse from both brands and the Dior one was great but the Chanel had wonky hardware....

BAGS!!! 😍 I love bags!!!! 💥🎉💥

SLG's are a necessary evil. LOL! I've learned VERY recently to appreciate nice SLG's but I see no reason for ME to buy more than necessary. 3 or 4 nice SLG's can add up to a nice handbag. No way that I want to nickel and dime myself out of what could be a great handbag...or clothes... or jewelry... or... 😄 Plus I happily change my bags almost every day to coordinate with my outfit. My wallet doesn't need to coordinate with anything. So my motivation to change it is low.

I just bought two wallets to replace an old yucky one and am looking for a card case for my smaller bags. I also just purchased a nice makeup bag. After that I want one key pouch, one pen holder and one misc. pouch and I'll be done. I don't want multiples of any of these. So, I'm making sure I get great ones that I'll love (classic, beautiful ones from premier designers) so I don't have to think about them for years - maybe a decade or more.

I was looking at card holders recently and came across this one, I thought it was so different:

Definitely both, but I absolutely LOVE SLG's! They just make me happy when I open my bag and see them inside! And I'm kind of obsessed with little pouches and containers, lol.

For me, the answer was always bags! But a couple of years ago, I discovered Tiffany & Co. SLG's and loved them so much I went crazy buying them, lol! I bought more than I use, but I still can't bring myself to part with any of them. So I'm done buying SLG's. I don't even have any bags on my desperate wishlist right now, but I can't say I'm done buying bags. Too bad for hubby, lol!!!
