The "O" were outlet bags from that we've discerned over the years. Were you tempted by anything?

exactly! but there we go - it's in the store!
yes, the blue mini with SHW looked :drool: but the size does not work for me, plus this leather is quite stiff.
she brought size S from the storage, but it had weird pale blue colouring between the 'croc' patches and it gave the bag very cheap look, so i passed.

@ksuromax @muchstuff I actually think the O is just the season letter for F/W 2023, like the P (S/S 2023) and the T (S/S 2021). The real shocker here is that they were making these old style Cities as late as F/W 2023. I thought they'd discontinued the City style in 2021 or 2022?

Of course, the outlet bags had the “O” at the end of the line.

So the takeaway is...Wanderers need to stop pinching pennies if they want designer goods and...control their urination???

I saw this last week and was like geeeeesh. I stopped reading after the ALL CAPS part.

Now that I’ve skimmed the rest - they sound like a really unpleasant person.

Just hit DECLINE and go about your day -

Does anyone find that they like certain colors on certain bags. For example I don’t like the sorbet much on the city but I like it a lot on the firsts. Maybe I’m crazy. 🤪

Same with me. Model and color and hardware have to be just right when I get the bag. Sometimes the color is perfect but something is off, i realize I like that color and the leather on a different size … just like when my husband buys his musical instrument - a lot of things have to click together to make it right …. That is why I buy and sell so often so that with time the pieces in which everything works stay with me. The weird example is when bright color like mandarin works so well on Work size but I dont realky like it on Firsts that much, but sorbet I love on First, and I dont like it on Velo that much

Exactly this. For example if usually not a silver hardware kind of girl but saw it in the GH on a blue work recently (usually more of a pink ,purple kind of girl) and it was fabuloussss. I also love the day in the more muted browns, greens and blues. So may different styles , it all has to come together like you said.

Yes ! I love regular hardware but on dull gray like tarmac, rose gold is amazing and gave the bag that little lift needed in my eyes. Or - that gray suede Work I have is light greenish , and silver hardware is the only color which would work on it, I can’t imagine any other (and I never liked silver hardware on anything besides old buffalo leather brown Miu Miu bags). I returned once my dream color Velo - dark cherry - because gold hardware just made it tacky and I imagined wearing it with its front turned to my body… silly …. and I returned it … regular hardware would work so well but it looked nice in photos with gold …. I would never buy black Velo but if I could find it with smallest gold hardware (I saw it in some street style photo from Paris) I would be ecstatic !

Is there any other contemporary or vintage designer bags that any of you collect? I’m looking for another option that has scrumptious leather, has some slouch , and minimal branding. Just wanted to see if there was any other vintage styles I’m missing!!!
