Thank you GL. :biggrin:Yes it is from Amazon. I wanted the One Handle so badly that when I found this, I was over the moon. It looks so much like it. However, because it's in all leather, it's not as interesting as the O.H imo. I think one of the design elements of the O.H. I love is the use of leather against canvas. Still, I do love this bag, especially because it's red, and red is one of my favorite colors. I get weak when I see red bags and slgs and shoes and jewelry and anything red and shiny! And pink, and red and pink together!!!
Yes! Pink and red together are the best! I’d love an bag in this combo.
Oooh, that's a spectacular bag :yes:

Did any of you guys here see the youtube videos by this lady, KarenBritChic? First off, she's got great taste and secondly she does this hilarious sound when confronted by a particularly fabulous bag, like "Oooaaarghw" :lol: This is kind of the sound I make in my head/thoughts when I see a gorgeous bag, it was so funny to hear that someone else does it too :lol:

At 00:29, and the bag love just goes on from there, and understandably so- it's about the Loewe Puzzle! After seeing this I don't feel so crazy alone for cuddling my bags to tell them I love them :lol:
Thanks for the bag love. And the puzzle is so on my radar.
That is SO FUNNY!!! I was laughing when I read your post; then saw the video.:lol::lol::lol:
I was ok w NOT owning a Puzzle, but now...:whut::facepalm:
I really want a puzzle too!
Whoa, this is super duper phenomenal!!:heart::heart::heart: Color + style + clasp :clap::loveeyes:
Wanted to also say Best Luck to you (& Mr. Sparkle) on your new endeavor....think you mentioned something of that nature on a reply to someone else when you posted a bag & mentioned “plotting” w/ mr sparkle!:drinks:
Thanks for the compliment and the well wishes on the business extension. :biggrin:
I am in love!
As am I. Great bag!!!
 
LV One Handle look-a like. I missed out on the One Handle and I found this. I actually like this better because it is sooo non branded, and still has that One Handle silhouette. Sometimes I just need a "quiet" bag.

Beautiful! May I ask more details about this lovely piece? Brand, size, where to find it, etc.? Top handle styled bags are my favorite!
 
I LOVE this bag sooo much! :faint: I still remember the first time I saw a picture you posted of her. Beautiful! Can't wait to see her again!:smile:
Thank you!!! I adore this little bag.

I’d love to find more beautiful and unique bags that aren’t from the “usual suspects” (Chanel, LV, Dior, etc.). Especially ones with little known branding. I like having variety in my collection. I’m going to have to go back to the thread @papertiger started on lesser known, high quality brands.
Just picked up this for 5.99, made in Italy, great leather

Great find!
This looks like the perfect bag! How do you like carrying it?
This is the perfect casual / daily bag! I typically don’t like hobos or bags without a lot of structure because it’s hard to find my things. But, this bag overcomes all my objections. It has just enough structure to allow me to find my items in pouches. And it doesn’t flop over when I set it down.

It’s great for every day because it’s light weight and fits perfectly on my arm with the right strap drop. So, it isn’t in my armpit or swinging around my body.

The leather is probably among the VERY best in my closet. Seriously, it’s nicer than the LV leather bag I bought last year. :huh:It’s rich and chewy with a satiny hand feel. But, unlike most smooth leathers, it doesn’t scratch easily. In fact, the few scuffs I’ve gotten easily came out from lightly buffing with leather conditioner.

I have two Jimmy Choo bags. Both, ironically, are hobos. This is such an underrated bag brand. But, so be it. I can find great deals on the bags preloved. I got this bag for 7% of retail while it was still in store like new from Fashionphile. So, I’ll definitely be adding more preloved JC to my collection!!! :nuts:

I love your style, and how you personalize things to make it work (I.e. the straps). You are definitely my long lost twin as I’m a fan of red, pink, and anything bling bling[emoji7][emoji7][emoji7].
