Yea I live vintage purses! I actually think many vintage pieces look way better than the modern ones. For example I really like the old Gucci styles with the green red stripe or the ones with blue leather. I also like the style and quality if the vintage Dooneys. They seem more sturdy. I'm looking for a vintage chanel right now!!!
I have been saying this for 30 years.....Why wear what every other person walking down the street wears when you have the chance to be unique? Vintage is the way to go!
I have been collecting Vintage Purses for over 30 years.
I am finally letting them go to find new homes...Sad, but something I want to do.
But it gives me a reason to search for more Vintage Purses.

Well I know we would all love to see them as you let them go. A 30 year collection must be amazing. I was looking at Etsy last night and the prices on some of their vintage bags was quite respectable.
The quality and materials really have endured on the vintage bags. And they were ... clever. Yes.
I have one that has a patented auto latch, I think it is 50's and so cool!

Thanks darl! I am very lucky enough to find this vintage piece, however I don't wear it as much as I would love to.

I LOVE MCM so I like these because they look different from the monogram versions.
Of course I love the vintage suede Gucci purses as well!

I love love Vintage Dior monogram. I believe they are all from the 1970s. The brown Trotter was from ebay, the Navy tote from Portero, and the CD Monogram from theluxurycloset.
LOVELY!
I just got a vintage Celine Macadam and I so love it! Such a lovely bag!
I am a bit obsessed with vintage coach very simple yet chic and the quality is truly remarkable
yeah I am obsessed about vintage Coach and you are right, I own vintage bags from other premiere designers and they have not held up as well as the old Coach bags. I own at least 50 of them LOL.
I know what you mean, I own so many. I find myself putting them back down before I get to the register.
I've heard it said that not only was the craftsmanship better in days gone by, but the animal hides were superior back then too. Less hormones, additives, etc for the animals.
