METALLIC BAGS - Show me your metal...

[papertiger]

Papertiger thanks for contributing your gorgeous bags. The second one is like a bright shining star.
Love it! I’m off to look it up. . .

I see one now on US evil-bay (not mine I hasten to add). I can recommend any TK bag/luggage as much as Hermes, Moynat, Delvaux, BV,and Gucci. Handmade and suede-lined. When you consider what the pre-loved listing rate is, the price is for 'nothing'.

Tanner Krolle is a very old and trad British company, more used to bespoke orders. I think this model (mid-00s) was TK trying to be edgy and was called something like 'Latch'. It worked, I absolutely had to have one (I think I bought mine in Selfridges). Very easy to use too.

What a timely thread because I happened to wear my mottled gold Belen Echandia clutch last night to a holiday party.

I’ve found some google images of some that I like.
Anyone have either of these?
If so, how often do you carry?

I don't have any of those but they are great looking bags.

My favorite "colors" for bags are metallics and, I have to restrain myself from buying too many. IMO they are the perfect neutrals and raise the profile of any outfit. My silver Dior is absolutely my favorite bag in my collection.

I tend to wear silver more than gold because I wear white gold jewelry most often. But, I love gold bags as well and "need" to add a casual one with a little more structure to replace my MK that's past its prime. I'm considering the BV pillow and want to look at some others as well.

My Silvers:

Proenza Schouler Small Courier silver calfskin w/ dual colored hw

Jimmy Choo silver metallic suede biker bag
Miu Miu small shopping tote in pewter lamb
Dior silver microcannage calfskin Diorama

My Golds:
Chanel new medium Boy in soft gold perforated lamb
Michael Kors gold Camden hobo

GREAT thread idea Molly0!! Love everyone’s pics. Like you, I’m totally drooling over @papertiger 2nd pic by TK!!! STUNNING bag! And also adore seeing @Sparkletastic Dioroma, Chanel Boy & PS (3 of my fave’s of hers).
So with the pics you posted...i do have a Mulberry Lily mini in color “mushroom metallic”....it’s REALLY small but adorable & has 3 interior card slots. I use it more as a clutch but the chain strap is long/crossbody. It’s 1 of my all-time favorites that i tease & tell my DH to please bury me with this one! And my other metallic is a chanel 226 reissue. It’s very subtle , not a full on metallic, more like a soft sheen & goes with practically anything (dressy or casual) I also have a Dark Silver metallic Chanel WOC that i adore & it’s super versatile as well. Thanks for your new thread!

Thank you! The dress is from Muumuu Heaven, a local boutique in Kailua, Hawaii (Oahu), which closed a few years ago. The dress material is vintage aloha fabric. Pretty cool. One of my most favorite dresses.
