Love natural leathers, no embossed ones. Exotics are great too. I don’t carry much so my bagsize is usually smaller. Hardware can be anything but lately I’ve been prefering gold. It depends on the colour and style of the bag though.
 
Chain strap FLAPS! :nuts: OMG! Add in quilting and a great leather or unique treatment and I’m gone!!! LOL! 50% of my collection is chain strap flaps.

I also am a sucker for lambskin. I try not to buy lamb but it calls for me like a siren to watery depths! :panic:

And, I adore silver, grey and pink bags! I have to stop myself from buying them! It’s a sickness. LOL!


OMG We are on the same page with chain strap flaps! I even started a thread talking about my obsession with chains for shoulder bags.
 
All of them. I go into stores sometimes just to look at bags without any intention of buying. High end stores, TJ Maxx, Dillards, anywhere. I love to see what is going on with the shapes, material, embellishments, etc. I don't know why its bags instead of clothes - I guess because its architectural - making it easy to appreciate the beauty on its own. If I could buy a bag everyday, I would.
 
I'm a sucker for anything chevron, esp. if it's defined with different colors!
-nice leather, esp. very smooth or very textured
-favorite colors- black, navy, hot pink, red, or a rainbow woven/striped
-removable straps or adjustable straps, just strap options in general
-iridescents or metallics, even though they require a little more care
