Mayfly, what an elegant bag in a swoon worthy color! I love subtle pinks and that Mabel is TDF! No, never had a Mabel, though have been sorely tempted...she appears to combine the ease of organization that I love (I think you just get to a point in life where enough is enough with the impractical larger bags that you can never find anything in!) with an elegant profile. And lighter weight? Ah, that's a big bonus. Thank you so much for the pic, she's divine! I may be persuaded....I thoroughly enjoyed your backstory, dear MM; it's fascinating how we all got hooked on this brand (although I'm personally not so keen on the current offerings). Do you have any Mabels in your collection? It's such a fabulous bag: lightweight, amazingly easy to organise, loads of storage (big central section, 2 slide side pockets), shoulder/handheld options etc ... It's definitely the style I wish they'd never discontinued.
Here's my rose pink goatskin Mabel:

Hello to everybody, I am a squirrel who lives near the coast of the Baltic sea, and people and squirrels here are said to be a bit slow,that's why it took me so long to find this wonderful thread with beautiful pictures and consoling replys concerning the collection of nuts. I have lead a calm (see pictures of me sitting in my garden or on the terrace) life until in April this year I was travelling to London and bought a stunning Lily in glossy goat at Heathrow, the most expensive bag I have ever bought at that moment. I watched and read internet forums, saw this wonderful forum and got addicted. The bays in oak followed, the small double zip tote - and I was a bit afraid of losing control. One month stop, then I saw a preloved roxanne in a secondhand shop, then the Mulberry summer sale came,,, and so on. Now I am the happy owner of 14 Mulberry bags and I love each of them. I use my sbs in black and oak very often now, love the regular bays in oak but do not use it so often because it raining so much here . I use the preloved bays in black darwin more often, it seems to be indestructable. I have bought a preloved Mulberry Luella Gisele which I only used once, it is not so practical, but I love it as iti is unique and the thick harness leather is fantastic.
My DH was a bit worried, but after I explained to him why I love the Mulberry bags so much, it was him who gave me the sbs oak for our 10th wedding anniversery.
I would not sell one single of my mulberry bags, I sold other cheaper bags, because I have made the experience that carrying a really good and pretty bag can save a whole day. For dirty floors in bars or similar occasions I use cheaper bags, but I use a Mulberry bag nearly every day. The green Roxanne has a pause, I'll use her again in spring.
It was so consoling reading about other squirrels, thanks! There are still some Mulbs on my wishlist - a blue sdr and a lily in oak for example, but as I do not like the newer Mulbs, I am a bit calmer now that I am not completely gone mad. Thanks Ludmilla for this great thread!

My family from earlier this year and I am biting the bullet and sharing the bags I am just not using. ..deep breath....An oak mini Alexa is a major keeper, but the picture won't load.
I have just said goodbye to the red Alexa,as I was just not using her. The black buckle bays is going to my eldest daughter as a Christmas present...it's a good home and she will look after her.
I don't think I can bear to prune anymore and have put the money aside for a new purchase. ( I also sold a Chloe Marcie satchel I loved but did not use).
I want to ease the pain by using the money It am having no luck yet. I am looking for a navy bag with silver hardware. I love the Mabel's but also have an eye on the Cheyenne ( spelling???) and Winsley style.
Hopefullly I have done the right thing.

Thank you very much! I am also a huge fan of of green colours. About the color of the Roxy I am not really sure, the leather is antique glacé, it could be Apple, a bit faded out, or verdigris. Here is a picture of her. What do you think? One buckle has been obviously replaced, I am still looking for a buckle that fits better.Welcome Betty Kay to the Squirrel Family! Love your pictures. You sound like you have amassed quite a stunning collection--or should I say a cache--of divine and tasty nuts! Green Roxy? Apple, Olive or Emerald? Green is my favourite color of all, so must ask. You are in good company, we all have a "list" of new nuts we dream of.![]()
Lovely green, what ever the name is. Classic Mulberrys, love them.View attachment 3538339
