Today is a rainy sunday - so I cleaned out my purse closet and found two more bags.
I usually use them only in summer.
The light blue one was used a lot when I was carrying my babies in a wrap on my back - I would just bind the handle in the last knot so everything was easily accessible.

I had such a nice stoller with purse hooks and stylish changing puses, but son didn't want to hear anything about it - haha

Both bags are about 15 years old, the blue one was a gift
Love that they're 15 years old but still on trend and wearable!!
 
I wasn't familiar with this brand before, but I happened to walk past the store in Lisbon this week. I've been on the lookout for a new crossbody for fall after carrying a Faure Le Page Daily Battle 37 as a diaper bag all summer.

I saw a bag in the window and I was sold. I ended up with the Carousel mini in taupe. Although I don't see this option on the website, my purse came with two straps. There's a matching taupe leather strap and a green/purple fabric strap with gold threads. I'm kicking myself for not picking up a matching card holder.

For those who were wondering about availablity in the US, the SA told me they don't have any stores in the US. All of their stores are in Europe and Asia. IMG_3214.JPG

I almost bought something from that exact store earlier this year! Unfortunately, it was mostly pastels, and that is really the one color set that doesn't work with what I own. I love this bag from afar (having only seen it on the website) and I'm curious to know how you like it after using it for a while!
 
This is interesting, thanks everyone!!! My dear brother brought me a gorgeous Coccinelle bag from England, years ago for my birthday. I was thrilled- and put it away since it was a gorgeous color which didn't exactly 'go with' anything I owned. I now realize this basically goes with EVERYTHING... (it's an indescribable neutral grey-lavender-taupe...) so I'm actually using it for the first time tomorrow!!! I'll take a pic when it's out.

Oh I love that! I was admiring the Coccinelle table of goodies at the department store yesterday. But that is gorgeous and what a smiling face I see in that purse!
HAHAAAAAA!!! I totally didn't think you were 'talking to me' BC I didn't see the 'face' until right now this instant!!! Hilarious!!! Love it-
 
It cracks me up that yours has it’s tongue poking out of the corner, being sassy at us. I had one with a cargo pocket that made that face, and I used to make it ‘talk’ to my family by squeezing the pocket to make the mouth open wide and close, and use a funny muppets voice, and my family thought I went looney.

Too much FB: I tried to long-press 'HAHA' this!!!
