Oh my. It looks like you’d need a pair of scissors to get the bag out of the packaging!!!! Hahahaha. I’ll give it an A for originality.It's been mentioned before but plastic bags that are $$$ are ridiculous. They were trendy 10- 20 yrs ago with Hermes,, Chanel and LV making them and now it seems they are back in style. Some people get upset for paying 5 cents for a plastic grocery bag but it's fine to spend $$$$ for one if it's "fashun"!
I remembered when Chanel did this. It's almost like Costco will be stocking Chanel that year.

I actually like backpacks, and I am mostly a backpack girl. But I don't get small/mini backpacks.
Also, not sure if I have already posted, but the Gucci bags with all the decorations (butterfly, flowers, leaves, logos all over, I won't be surprised if there's an Avenger image lurking in some) make me confused.

Yep there’s no way I could fit all of my stuff in those mini bags... And being almost 6 foot tall, I think I’d look like I shoped at Toys R Us for my bag.
Me too! I'm not 6-foot tall, just 5'8" but, uhm, wide, and mini bags look weird on me. Plus, straps are often too short.
Yep. Not a fan of all the bugs on the bags, but I have to admit I’m lusting after the Gucci blooms collection (blue, pink and the men’s green version). However I dont know If I could do a full bag... but maybe an SLG????
I was a Girl Scout way back when. I mean the cookies were less than a buck a box when I started, okay? We had theses great leaders who had the patience of saints and got us doing everything. So I associate back packs with camping and I never transitioned them into a fashion accessory. A vintage Coach Sling bag is as close as I get.
Okay.... I LOVE the color and this bag for that mater (Bal city), but it looks like someone forgot to add the hardware to this bag (or a leprechaun took the hardware for his pot of gold).

in the Bal forum, this bag was described as the ghost of a Balenciaga bag.
To be fair, at first, I didn't get this bag, but I am slowly understanding the appeal...I think it's a Balenciaga girl thing. Once you have several of them motorcycle bags, you kinda want something new.
i have 6 of them in various colours, the best, most comfortable handle ever!
That is BRILLIANT!!! I'll have to keep that!!!
anytime!
just remember to keep YOUR very personal items in yours for those moments when you might need them and DH will not be around, WC, for example

i have more than a dozen Bals, Cities, Days, Works... still don't get this one, toothless monster...in the Bal forum, this bag was described as the ghost of a Balenciaga bag.

Let me preface by saying this is just ME and my personal opinion. -peace-
I don’t get the hype with the Celine Trio:
[emoji23] I saw a lady carrying a Trio in the bank and all I can think of was, “Gee, I could have bought so much more for $1,200!” It reminds me of the no-name bag my mom made me carry when I was 12 and had to go to family dinners. [emoji23] It also reminds me of my current Kipling makeup kit but with a strap:
Here’s a $39.99 alternative from Mango:
Oh well!

why would anyone need so many compartmens and so little space???

3 zippers too!! I find it nuts.
I would be that girl who would be opening zipper 1 and saying no. Then zipper 2 then saying nooo. And finally getting my piece of paper from zipper 3.
Plus it looks funny when you put anything non-flat inside it. I could see the outline of a hairbrush when I saw that lady using this bag in the bank.
Yes. I don’t get why it’s the most popular model, too. LV makes tons of interesting models. Why everyone has to get a Neverfull. [emoji848]
I agree with the Neverfull. I understand why it is popular (easy to carry, roomy, functional), but there is an over-saturation, and for that reason alone I wish it would go away or not be as saturated. I don't own one, but I do own a lot of LV, including the Speedy, which is also everywhere, but my excuse for that is that it is "classic", so it has more history.
I also have never gotten the Lady Dior thing. I don't see the appeal or the "beauty" of it. I like other Dior bags, but not this one.
And back to LV - you don't see these out and about as much, but I NEVER, EVER got why the multicolore monogram print was so popular and coveted. To me, it is fugly, and I love the regular monograms and the DE print. Again, to each there own, nothing personal
I don’t get the multicolored monogram, too! [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]
