My growing collection!

[sophiaberry]

I’ve loved handbags since I was a kid, and I feel like at 25, I’m at a place where I’ve figured out what kind of bags work for me + what I like. I’m excited to keep growing my collection, but here’s where’s I’m currently at! (This is after giving away/selling/donating around 15 bags over the last year, and adding about 4 new bags in 2019 as well!)

Here are my favorites: the luxury designers bags I own!

In the back row, there’s a very old Burberry canvas hand me down from my aunt (from 2010, and she bought the bag before that), and a black YSL shopper, which was the first true premiere luxury bag I bought myself in 2016.

In the front row, I have a beige YSL A5 pouch (perfect for weddings), a brown Toy Lou Lou, a black Gucci disco, and my newest— the Gucci maramont camera bag in pink!!

Here are the other crossbodies I own—this is definitely my preferred handbag style!

A very old MBMJ Natasha purse, a yellow MK WOC—birthday gift from my mom in 2018, a Coach monogram crossbody, a black Allsaints star purse, and a Viva Vida purse.

I used to work for a small boutique from 2015-2018, and the Viva Vida purse was a private label bag that the owner of the store designed. It’s one of two that she created, and my little sister has the other one! It’s super sentimental.

Here are some of the larger handbags I own:

A Zac by Zac Posen Eartha purse, which was the first “adult” purchase I ever made with money earned from my first job in 2015 after I graduated from uni! It’s so heavy that it’s not the most practical, but I won’t part with it because of sentiment.

The navy blue Coach bag was another gift from my mom, and it’s such a sturdy bag. Love it for when I’m traveling.

I purchased the navy Longchamp Le Pliage tote in Paris in 2015, and it’s my favorite airport bag.

Both of these purses are from a trip to Italy in 2015–

The Tosca Blu blue purse was purchased in Milan, and the smaller patchwork Carlo Carmagnini pouch was purchased in Florence. Neither of these are used often, but super sentimental.

These are two of my more unique purses!

The Kate Spade mouse bag is a classic, and is the bag I get the most compliments/comments on.

The Talbots beige purse is a hand me down from my boyfriend’s grandma. It’s super old and heavy!

AND for a bonus: my SLG collection!

I have a couple of wallets: the LV emilie monogram wallet, a Fendi Wallet, and Tory Burch wallet.

I also have a Furla cardholder, a lemon Kate Spade coin purse, a Snoopy Coach wristlet (I put my keys in there), and a pink Kate Spade wristlet (for my bus pass!)

This was so much fun to go through and lay everything out!

Hoping to add a Chanel cardholder, and a classic LV canvas bag (either the Alma BB, or the Speedy Bandouliere) in the near future!

What a wonderfully balanced collection! A little practicality, a little whimsy, a variation of brands, sizes and colours... just lovely. Thanks for sharing.

Ooh the Coach with the patches is so fun!
