So far this year, I have gotten a Marc by Marc Jacobs mini globe trotter, Coach Oxblood borough, Coach Pebbled Legacy Duffle, Coach barstripe highrise, Coach barstripe mini borough, Coach Madison Annabelle, Coach Legacy E/W cognac duffle. . . I must be making up for lost Coach time.
 
I had a sort of plan for this year, the big idea was to buy bags I would actually use and get rid of the ones that I don't carry.

So far, I've made some great eBay finds and managed to find pre loved treasures;
~ a fuchsia Ted Baker hobo (a hobo and a bright pink bag were on the top of my list)
~ a mole grey Adax messenger/hobo (a grey bag was much needed)
~ an aubergine Lumi Supermarket City (something I just had to have and that's gotten a lot of use - the color is TDF. My sweetheart ended up buying this for my bday after I'd negotiated a good price for it)
~ a black Malene Birger Grinolas tote (a smart tote is something I've been living without for too long)
~ a smallest-size Longchamp Le Pliage (needed a bright red bag to go with my red Converse and Superstar sneakers)
~ a tomato red zippy wallet (had no red wallet, had no zip-around wallet that'll fit my passport in it, problem solved)

The wallet was the only thing I bought new. I did some awesome deals on all the bags as usual as I close to never pay full price. All of them (except the mint condition tote for which I got 30% off the original price) were less than half their original price - the Ted Baker cost me 19 euros and there are no signs of wear! :nuts:

I think I'm pretty much done for this year - for now, I'm going to concentrate on emptying my closets as it seems me and le BF are moving in together later this year... :cloud9:
 
Not counting the Coach Madison Cafe Carryall bag my DH got me on our anniversary in January (and the Coach bag for men that I "surprised" him with), I have bought 2. A Burberry Clara wristlet and a Chanel jumbo double classic flap in navy blue caviar with SHW. 3 new bags, more or less $6K spent and it isn't even my birthday yet in July :D :D

Oh wait. I'm eyeing a Prada bag at the outlet store. Fingers crossed I can get away with buying it on Saturday :D
 
I have been on a decluttering journey for two years so every bag has to be well thought of. My one & only luxury bag purchase in 2013 was a Tods and I can see myself carrying it well into the next 10 years. The other two buys were longchamp LM metal bought at 50% off. Absolutely great as carry on bags for travel.

I just received a LV speedy b in DE from hubby for our 5th wedding anniversary. It will be another workhorse bag!:-))

I guess I will write again on this thread in 2015...;-)
