Thanks! It’s just nice to have a good number of bags (for me). I’d probably like to downsize even more but I don’t really have the patience for eBay right now. [emoji15]

I’ve been feeling like this lately too. Ideally I would like to have just one of each type of bag that I like. But the idea of selling off bags that I still have an attachment to is daunting. Plus ebay is scary for me. Lol

Thanks. Your BV is just so gorgeous. I would love to have a true purple bag too. And what do you know? A like-new purple BV popped up on Yoogis this morning. But I can’t buy it due to my no-buy month and lack of purse fund :(. Anyways, can’t believe you are letting go of two purple bags (I love your purple K). Hey, I am wondering if we are talking about the same double chain tote because I don’t remember a flap. Here is the one I tried on and love. Is it the same one you are talking about? Just curious.
Oh boy, you are really strong! Good for you! [emoji106] [emoji259] [emoji258] [emoji256]

I am actually considering letting go my Kelsey. My niece is graduating high school and her favorite color is purple. I might give it to her. Maybe. [emoji28]

We're not talking about the same bag. Here's the one I'm referring to. It was stunning in a deep, rich red.

That’s great that you are giving your Kelsey to your niece — she will love it (I love the color every time I see your pic), Oh wow, this BV is more like a flap bag. Like you said, why did they name it a tote bag? Although NM sometimes gets the bag names wrong. Anyways, it is gorgeous, I love the criss cross (don’t know how to describe it) weaving in the back.

One of each bag — that is a novel idea. Lol. Maybe I should try that for some of my multiples.

OMG, that's the one I love too! I think it is actually called the Olimpia. They didn't have this exact one in red when I was at the BV store, just the one with regular weaving in red. I saw this one in a denim blue that was beautiful. They also had it in black and white or cream I think. There was also a tote style done in the same weaving.

One of each would be great! It’s tough to pick a favorite out of multiples [emoji23][emoji23]
eBay isn’t too bad, it just seems like the crazies come out of the woodwork all at once. I have been getting harassed about lowering my prices and people making lowball offers. Those people get added to my blocked list. It just gets old after a while. I usually take a break when that happens.

Yeah. I don’t think I will ever get there, since I can justify anything once I want it. [emoji16] but it’s something to think about.

I definitely have favorites but I feel that there is a reason why I keep certain color ways. <——- me justifying lol

Haha I’ve seen that a couple times. I’m just too lazy to take all the pictures only to have to repost. I like the Facebook groups though. But even then I get worries that they’ll kick me out if I missed something. This is why I rarely sell my bags. [emoji16]

I should consider this although it is not like I have 10 of each. Only 2-4 of some bags. If I can get it down to 2 per style, that would be good. You would think the difficulty/hassle of selling bags would deter me from buying more bags.
 
Thanks. I am so bad/undisciplined — I say I need to be banned but I still look :sad:. I supposed gorgeous bags are a little like gorgeous men for a married gal like me — I can look but I can’t touch/buy (lol). Great to hear you are joining the ban — at least you got a few gorgeous new bags in before starting your ban :smile:.
Yes, I feel like I have plenty of great ones now! I'll be looking here for sure in case there is anything for a future wish list! I'm just not going to shop or look on ebay. I'll be rotating through what I have so any future bags will be hits only! I'd like a Dinky 24 in a fun color, but the only bag I plan to get (for Christmas if it is on sale then) is a black Parker. If it comes out in a nice dark red or dark teal I will have to really have a hard time choosing!

Maybe if you look at it like “you have to sell something before you buy this...” that scares me a lot haha

Ooohhh I love the Parker. When I went in to hot stamp some of my hangtags I got to check some of them out. @Iamminda is right. The black/ pink quilted one looks better from a distance. What stops me from buying is the C at the turn lock. I don’t like it. It makes the bag asymmetrical. The SA did tell me that they would have a plain leather version with tea roses at the turn lock and it would have scallops they way the Fendi Kan I does. DD is 100% in.

I have multiples if I love a style. I also have a favorite color in different styles. I gravitate toward certain colors and styles so it works for me. Sometimes a color will encourage me to try a style I'm not instantly drawn to, and I've been really happy with that so far. I think that means I should try on more styles to see if they work better. Sometimes I love the way a bag looks but prefer the way another functions. If I find a bag that does both, I love it!
