I am also a minimalist/ quiet luxe collector. I don’t have pictures of everything, but my favorites are:
Delvaux vintage 1957 Troubadour (light brown, gold hardware, about the size of a piece of paper - I can fit my wallet, phone, and keys but not much else). I use this often, it’s one of my favorites.
Dior 2000 Lady Dior (black leather with trotter pattern - rare vintage piece). I use this when I don’t need both hands since it’s only a top handle and the one downside is those handles - they hurt after a while if carried on my arm and it doesn’t have a longer strap. It’s the medium size popularized by Lady Diana.
Salvatore Ferragamo white leather bag (I can’t remember the style) - it’s a fairly large bag with three main compartments. I love the simplicity and the size, I can fit most of my daily life in here.
Gucci Jackie vintage (1980s I think) light blue bag - I love everything about this bag, even though I don’t normally go for color. It’s a good piece for the spring and summer to add a bit of interest to my wardrobe.
I’m planning to do a LOT of vintage shopping when I go to Paris and Brussels September 25-October 3! I’ll be adding a lot to my collection. Likely a Le Tanneur Emilie flap bag, a Polene (I think it’s the Sept, I can’t keep them straight), and a few others. Hoping I can find an Hermes and another Delvaux!

Very minimalistic 🦦
Adding a few brown bags - thinking of Little Liffner Mini Sprout Tote in suede and The Row Terrasse in grained leather

Nice! Very pretty bags indeed. How is the T-lock bag? I was eyeing it, too. It is just sooo gorgeousDo you play to buy a suede bag?
Yes the Toteme T-Lock bag is nice in this pebbled leather. I tried also the smooth one but closing mechanism was quite hassle because the leather was too slouch. With pebbled leather and custom felt insert it is easy to open and close. Also added a few metal clips to add more lenght to the strap.. 😃
Little Liffler bag in suede was total turnoff, the crossbody strap was low quality and I made reclamation of it but the company didn't hear me and I had to pay 45 Euros from shipping it back. I will never buy anything from Little Liffner.
So I found Manu Atelier bag in size 25 and in suede and I like it 🥰
