Yeah, my collection is out of control. I have way too many bags, but I have separation issues...LOL...and I don't want to part with anything. I just realized how many of my stams are similar (Bronze/Olive/Taupe), but I can't bear to part with any of those yet. Maybe in the future.

The Heloise I bought was on sale, very deeply discounted. It was not really the size I wanted, but I still love it and it was really easy and comfortable to carry. I really, really want the larger Heloise in Black or Brown, but those rarely go on sale. I am saving for those right now. I think that the Heloise is a great bag. It's something I can see myself wearing a lot. A lot less dressy than some of my MJ's and it is distressed, so I won't need to worry about scratches. I had never really looked at Chloe's until recently and I found that I love the leather they use. It is really thick and kind of glazed. I still LOVE Mj the best, though. Chloe is a close second!!
 
Roro, your collection is awe inspiring, woman!! Love, love, love your stam hobo and your Karens! So many gorgie colors and styles, and the Chloes are TDF, too!

June, your avatar is adorable!
 
June take a look at her fantastic collection!

Roro, everytime I go to Nordies I get sucked in by the Heloise's on the Chloe table. I guess they seem like a nice casual alternative to all my fancy MJ's. I really like the light blue color on the BG site. Kind of tempted to cheat. . .
 
Jun, I already had a Heloise. A Jewel Green, but it is the smaller "shopping tote" style. I bought it when I was able to get 50% off the sale prices at Nordstrom. It ended up being approx. $464., which is a huge discount. I love it, but I have always wanted the larger Heloise in a neutral shade. Chocolate Brown or Caramel (I love this color) and a Black. They are $1690 each, though. So.......I am saving for those. I am hoping I can buy one for my birthday (in late February), so I am saving my pennies!! You can see the green Heloise if you click on my link in my sig. I think it is on the first page.

I know!! I always am drooling over the Chloe bags. I love that they are gorgeous, but not so uptight. I admire a lot of bags, but some of the brands are too much for me, too polshed, etc. I love a vintage vibe to just about everything (I would love to move into Anthropologie and just live there) and I think those Chloe bags really have that look to them. They are pricey, though!! The only reason I am even considering them is that I *KNOW* I will get tons of use out of a brown and black, so it won't be a waste, but it's still a lot of money. That blue on the BG site is gorgeous. I also just saw a really pretty green Heloise on one of the sites. It kind of looks like Sap Green!:drool:

I was thinking of this color from the Nordies site(oops!). And I LOVE this green! Green is my fave color(I know I usually default to red or black but outside of my bag universe green is IT!) and I don't have any green bags. This one is cheat-worthy for sure though. MJ has a green coming out for spring as well. . .oooh I wonder which is going to steal my :heart:?
