My power is out, so I don't have good lighting to take pics. My current LRL collection includes an Indian Cove Crossbody bag in black suede, 2 Sloan Street small wallets in pool blue and black, and a Winford snap slim wallet in vermillion. I am very happy with these pieces, and I dare say I prefer the LRL Sloan Street small wallet to Coach's ID mini skinny, since the LRL has 2 pockets inside the zippered part to put cards, and a larger ID window.

I saw a red Winford double zip at my local TJ Maxx today in the clearance section for $149 US, and I was soooo tempted. The only thing holding me back was its weight. I've done too many bad things to my neck over the years. But I can certainly see why y'all love it so much. It really is beautiful and elegant.

Love all your bags! This is my first Lauren by Ralph Lauren. It's the Tate Convertible Satchel and has the Saffiano-type leather. I usually carry slouchy, soft leather bags, but this one was for sale brand new on a facebook swap site for $25! Couldn't pass it up. So, does the leather wear well? I'm really excited to use this bag! ImageUploadedByPurseForum1417609017.723135.jpg

that was a super steal!
I can't answer your question from experience but from what I've read here on TPF, these bags are very well made

This leather is similar to LV's Epi line but a tad lighter on the thickness of the leather. It wears well in my opinion.
Congrats on such a deal.

for that price I'm sure
that bag would go for minimum $129 at a discount store like TJ Maxx or DSW
I've never heard of facebook trading

I'm in several "swap" groups. This particular group is by invitation only. There are about 1500 members. It's supposed to be higher quality items, nothing under $10. (In some of the groups, people sell old candles for $1, etc. It gets tedious looking through those posts). I don't buy much, but I bought an antique cabinet that I now use as a TV stand. It's fun to browse.

Now that I see the LRL bags in this thread, I'm beginning to regret not buying an emerald convertible satchel that I already brought with me to the line at the cashier at TJMaxx last year. It was only priced at $65 and what drew me to it was the lovely green color. Decided not to get it when it was my turn to pay because I was crazy with RM MAMs at that time and I'd rather spend bag money on RMs. I don't totally recall how it looked exactly so I can't say what model it is, but it could actually be a Tate. I was just visiting the US then, so now I have to wait until my next visit. :sad:

Thank you! Our house is an old 1920s house. Original old windows and woodwork. I love it! The purse is sitting on my bluestone coffee table. It's cool - reclaimed wood and a rustic bluestone top from Arhaus.

This house has cool original art tiles, ironwork and other unique features. It's not a big house for this area but it's cozy and I love it.

I know this is totally off topic, but we have an Arhaus outlet about 15 minutes from our house. LOTS of deals. My coffee table has a teeny chip in it so it was like 60% off. We have a leather sofa from the outlet, too. I love deals on purses and furniture and . . .

Today's addition: my Ralph Lauren Taylor Satchel. I love the pewter color and subdued shine. A detachable matching shoulder strap and dustbag were included in the price. $69 at TJ Maxx.

:happydance:
