So interesting to hear that you and others here on this thread have to share your things with your DDs. My DD has never wanted to borrow my things — not sure what that means, like my things are too uncool for her. You may need a lock for your closet
. No seriously, I am envious and wish my DD would like to borrow my things (I know, sounds kinda desperate huh?).
Sometimes mothers and daughters have very different tastes. I don't remember wanting to borrow much from my mom. I notice my nieces are the same with my SIL. I think it's mostly about personal taste.
Very pretty, ML! I need to resurrect my love of pens. I haven't bought one in years! I found a couple "lost" ones as I was cleaning/organizing my closet.
Me too. There's no way I can get away without good support.
I know this may be a heavy day for some so here is a true creature to make you smile that actually belongs in a tin can and doesn't live in a swamp or eat bugs. He also lets it all hang out and isn't afraid of a comb. No Russian KGB jacket for him.
Happy Friday all!
Happy Friday all!
That is gorgeous! I love the red white and blue theme and cascading tea roses.
Good to see you! You must be crazy busy and exhausted. These are hard times for parents with school aged children. Your baby is growing so much and changing. Tell her we're in a pandemic, please keep her regular schedule to help mommy.
Hang in there, C. ((Hugs))I've had a ton of work for the past 3 weeks, so I've been away. No new bags for me and bought nothing over Labor Day. I try to keep asking myself where I would wear something. Oh well. Yes, I will try to catch up and from what I can tell, everyone seems to be doing well!
Hi e! Good to see you.
That is great about school going well! Aw, she is growing so fast and moving around already? It's so fast.
The rogue 25 in fuchsia is in coach outlet online..i keep saying to myself I can't buy another bag but the temptation is real , give that during my craze of buying I actively searched for this
On another note my hubby got me these for our anniversary, I have never seen it , unsure if its real, but the fact he actually went into a thrift store , browsed around and he told me he asked the sales girl if she thinks i would like it since I like purses...., you guys he has come a long way , from forgetting my birthday hahaha, to doing this
, even if fake I will treasure it
Now up to start mom duty

Your DH did great! The bag is very pretty! He has great taste. I remember seeing it some time ago. I'm sure you already got an answer on whether it is real or not. My DH does not go shopping for me. (He wouldn't have picked out such a nice bag for me either.) What can I say....

As always, I find out about things way too late. I see they restocked KF stuff I wanted, but it already sold out. Oh well. I hope what you bought comes in pristine condition.
Earlier this week, I wrote a really nice post with all my purchases from the last several months only to have computer issues and needing to restart it twice. This caused me to lose everything, so I'm trying again with a short version which I hope to edit and be able to add my info. Here goes....
These first two bags are from my Italian - ordered in early March. It includes DH's birthday present. I already carried both, of course. The multicolor one is a large slg that I had modified to carry on the shoulder. Marco and I had a lot of fun picking colors to create this combination. He was so patient!
Back in late March I bought some Coach goodies. I returned the Cashing Carry tote because it wasn't the green I wanted. I kept two other items, but decided to return them when I found out that Coach was closing the return window for purchases made while the stores were closed. Anyway, by now everything was 40% off and with the money I got back, I got the turn lock shoulder bag and had a bit more for the geometric bag. I couldn't resist the gorgeous orange red color.
I was lucky enough that within a week, everything went down to 50% off! That $ back covered a good part of the rest of the cost of the geometric bag. So, it turned out to be very little $ spent on two bags I love. 
The turn lock bag was my bag this week. I love how ladylike it is.
These two were birthday presents to myself.
As you know, I often notice bags after they have sold out or are hard to find. The Kaffe Fassett Troupe crossbody bag won my heart and I stalked it like nobody's business for months. I kept finding it at sky high prices which I refused to pay. I finally got an offer I could not refuse. When it arrived, I was disappointed that the colors were not as vibrant as in the pictures. But then, I loved the fact that so many colors are muted - it makes the bag so much more elegant. It also goes with so many more outfits because there is no clash of colors. I have carried this bag several times and I love it! It is one of my top 3 in my collection. That's saying a lot. I have wanted a small Lee Radziwill for a long time now. I finally found one at a price I was willing to pay in a color I loved. She's a real beauty! A bit hard to maneuver, but she's worth the hassle - especially if I take her to church or some place where I don't have to open her much. I haven't had a chance to carry her yet as I don't get out much. I hope to soon.
Sometime in the summer, one of you mentioned a really good sale on Bloomingdale's. I was able to get this cutie for a steal! I love this color and size. This has been my most used bag of the summer. I also got the domed bag in red with the purple strip but it wasn't love, so I returned it.
About a month ago, the 1941 clutch in 1941 red showed up on fos for a really good price. I really wanted it, so I put it in my cart. Unfortunately, you needed to spend $200 for free shipping. I refused to pay for shipping so put this gorgeous Dreamer shoulder bag in my cart as well. I had drooled and looked at this bag in store every time I went in, but wanted to pay less than 50 off for it. As it turned out, the day of the purchase it was $199 plus an additional 10% cash back on R---ten. Anyway, I put it in my cart hoping to get a scratched up return. Nope! It was the clutch that came in horrible shape. This beauty was wrapped to the nines and brand spanking new. What's a girl to do under such circumstances???? Keep it of, course! 
So there you have it! I have become house jr. Thanks for letting me share. Fortunately, my wishlist is very short. (1 bag) An it will probably not be discounted for a while. Now to wait for the nothots. Sorry (not sorry) ladies!
