My first bag purchases in a veeery long time. The Allsaints Spitalfields nylon belt bag and Allsaints Esme tote (same material as the belt bag).

I've been looking for my dream belt bag for forever and finally found it! I love the size, the material, the looks (especially the mismatched zipper pulls!), and the way it drapes against my body when I wear it. Looks great for casual outings and will go with anything. Fits my style perfectly!!! It can hold my small Bellroy folio wallet, a Memobottle A7, glasses, Beats Pros, and my phone and keys in the outer zipper pocket.

The tote bag was more of an impulse buy, but I love it, too. I was drawn to it because of its slightly puffy appearance, and I'd been looking at a lot of puffy totes previously. It's still quite understated, however. It's my first real tote bag and I've added an old, beloved Coach Woolly charm to one of the long handles. I have an insert coming in the mail, which will give it a bit more structure and organization.

So I just got home and realize this bag is nearly identical in color, shape and size to my mint Fendigraphy (although the Longchamp is suede). I convinced myself that this wasn't silly bc one has shw and one has ghw.

Threw on a bangle in each color to demonstrate the difference. Also sharing pic with another birthday treat, the H Cheval sirene scarf which I think will look nice with this color bag.

Do you have any idea on my black hobo count? :lol: All are sightly different, as are these two.

Gorgeous color, and no, they're not the same at all :no: And the scarf would look stunning paired with either of them.

Thank you. My daughter literally started laughing when I unpacked the new bag and put the 2 side by side and said "its literally the same bag". I questioned whether I was an idiot for a minute so thanks for your reassurance.

You’re like me with my Mulberry Sadie and Longchamp Box Trot in the same colour as your Roseau hobo. I like the silver hardware against the green too. Gorgeous birthday treat. I hope you had a fabulous time in Paris. Can’t wait to go next week .. :heart:

Take me with you! I didn't have enough time for shopping! Lol.

And yes yours are similar too but such a pretty color!

Do you have anything fun planned for Paris? We did ALOT in a short amount of time and there's still so much I'd love to go back to do. Which arrondissement are you staying in?

We’re staying in 9th, in what looks like a very quirky hotel (to match my friends personality!)

We’ve booked quite a few things including Dior museum but the most exciting (for me) is Versailles. I have wanted to visit for as long as I can recall but when I have visited Paris previously it just wasn’t possible. My friend isn’t into bags but she’s promised me a stop at LV and Longchamp but I suspect we will run out of time given our itinerary :lol:

We went to the palace of Versailles. It was very crowded. Fun tip: if you eat breakfast there (restaurant is called Ore), they take you down a secret door and you basically get to skip the line to enter! Hope you enjoy!
