How about take March (Madness) off and try again in April? That’s so nice that WE is keeping you company off the island :smile:. You are certainly welcome to loan a few to us like BBG suggested. Enjoy your beautiful collection!

They screwed up when they put it on FOS. It doesn't have a name so searching by camera bag doesn't work. I saw it on the FOS thread and then searched until I found it. I found it by searching for pink.

I see it now. I LOVE the colors and those little rivets/studs on top. Please show us when you get it — I would like to see how it look like IRL.

I'm switching as often as I can. I'm pretty sure I have enough to change daily but I don't switch if I am not leaving the house.

I liked Iam's ideas..... I think if you don't make it for so long you can do it. I also think it is a good idea to enjoy as many of your current collection as you can. I swap out bags too, just on a smaller scale as my collection is much smaller, so I get it. It is hard to not keep looking. But maybe you could do small things like-- just stick to looking at certain sites, and not search all of your regular sites, etc. (so that way you aren't finding things you weren't looking for in the first place, etc). I think the place you will get to eventually is that you will realize if you keep selling bags from your collection to buy more--you will simply want to only buy bags you want to keep long term. At some point most people tire of the buying only to sell not too long after, or they find they aren't using their bags, etc.

I get nervous at having so many new bags and not enough time to carry them. I still haven't used an ebay purchase and the 1941 clutch.

So speaking of shopping, lol!

First off, I had a funny experience at Dillard's today. I was at the mall at opening to make the most of my day, and that was where I parked. I wondered why there were several at the door at opening, but didn't think much of it. I go to the handbag section and slowly realize there are a lot of people there..... and I saw that it was one of those days that they have a sale on top of a sale on their handbags. I laughed to myself because I had heard of this sale but I have never been to one. This one was milder than some I have heard of--I think sometimes people can get pushy at times. I had a MK bag in hand that another lady liked, so I told her if I decided against it, she could have it--and I did give it to her. The Coach options on sale weren't very interesting.

I am glad I passed on that bag, however as Macy's had this bag on sale (below), and it the sunflower color of the other bag that didn't work out previously. I like this one better--and it is small like the other one, but in a way that works--it isn't so square and little--it is more like a Dinky type of small. I love the features of the leather straps on the side, and the gold rivet type things. And the strap isn't long--yea! It is the short shoulder length that I prefer but can also be hand carried.

Thank you! I was so disappointed that one bag didn't work out from online, and I couldn't find another bag the right size. I just stumbled upon this one. Thought it was too small at first but put a few things in there, and it was quite roomy for its size. It would have held everything I had with me in the Dinky today so it was a go, and 50% off. (maybe a gift for giving up the other bag to the person at Dillard's? lol!)

I believe @Alexa5 has the purple one. It's stunning!

These are really cute! I have the loganberry mini one, and the color looks the same all over to me. In pictures, the purple one does look 2 tone. I really like it, if it is. It looks intentional. @Alexa5 can clear that up! It looks like some other colors are all one shade. I saw a picture of a large one with all smooth leather too. It's a great bag with beautiful leather and nice compartments inside, and a cute, out of the way, top handle on top. I recommend it! :smile: Show us if you get one! :smile:

I think this is a fairly realistic representation--the purples match like this one.

@carterazo @tealocean @Alexa5 Thank you all for your input! I will continue to drool over these bags happily now. I've found that I really like top handles on my bags as they're easier to grab out of the passenger seat. And the schoolbag-look satchel style really appeals to me. Thank you all again for the responses!
