I didn't buy many bags this year, and none even expensive, save for a wallet, but that's a story for another post. I am not including really small leather goods that I did buy in this post.

This is actually not a bag I got this year but I decided to show this pretty pic anyway! One of my favs, my J.W. Hulme Co. tiny Legacy. If I had a bigger Legacy it would seriously be perfect but it is perfectly balanced in this size and really nifty. I love the thick leather (American heritage brand) and colour and I seriously don't have to worry about this one at all.

This is also not a new bag but it was my very first designer bag and still my numero uno in many ways. Lanvin For Me Double Carry Medium. I love the tortoiseshell turnlock clasp, the leathers, the compartments...

A not-very-good shot of me with it!

This is actually my baby. I love this bag so, so much I want another one but I can't justify buying the exact same bag in a different colour yet! My Deadly Ponies Mr Fill N Zip Twist. I agonised over buying this for so long but finally pulled the trigger last year. It is my most expensive bag but I have never, ever regretted it, just that I took so long to buy it. I take so many pictures of this one in all sorts of situations because I love it so much but here is a recent one (not my couch).

I did buy this this year, used, for an absolute song. 50SGD. It's pretty worn but has a lot of life in it still and converted me to the long/continental wallet side. YSL Muse continental zip-around wallet in black. I used to carry a card holder, a coin purse and a zip around compact wallet and got really frustrated with having to tote around three things and fold my bills all the time.

Ah, I did spend on these though this year. I bought three pairs of these sandals, one in a different colourway and another in a bigger size. Goatskin leather!

I got this this year! I rarely buy used, unless it's an incredible deal and this was. 35SGD. Again, it's not in the best condition but still has a lot of life in it. I love the design and the corner hardware though it does add to the weight. It's so edgy, like a Givenchy Pandora but almost better because it has an adjustable strap and the shape is fixed. I can stuff quite a lot of things in it too, surprisingly, considering that this is the small size. Golden Lane Small Duo Satchel in goatskin, I am pretty sure. Mmm, that grained goatskin...

This is my newest bag purchase this year (so I only really got two bags this year so far). Also got this brand new for a song, 25SGD. This is Clare Vivier's Le Mini Sac in silver. I love the unique wrinkly texture of the leather and the smooth raw lining inside, plus the studs at the side. The strap is non-adjustable but works perfectly for me crossbody. It fits quite a lot of things too.
Sorry for the lengthy post and if some of the photos turn out flipped but I couldn't even use my original direct image links that I had resized on my own so this is the best I can do for now. Thanks for reading!
