Ugh. I bought a Tory Burch beach bag in bright pink, thinking I would use it not only at the beach (since I live nowhere near the beach) but also as a bag now and then. It's canvas and isn't too beach suspected. However, the colour, not to mention the bright silver metallic logo, goes with nothing, and I've used it once on a trip to SC. I bought an LV beach bag, which I use much more frequently. The Tory is now just a sad bag in my closet. Sigh.... I must take it out before summer is over!

A red Furla. I wanted a red bag so much but I could not find "the one" (also, I never had a red bag before). Eventually, I bought the Furla just because it was red, but it turned out a rather unpractical model and the following summer I saw the perfect red bag on sale :-(

However, by then I realized that I don't use a red bag that much....

LOL! I use my pomme d-amour summit drive LV more than any of my other bags! I guess I just have a lot of neutral colours that go well with it, so I can use it more. To each their own, right? :drinks:

LV Vernis Houston in Fuchsia...while I loved the color, the style just didn't work for me...it wasn't very easy to get into!

LV Manhattan PM...I loved this bag when I first purchased it but I find myself falling out of love with it...I am having a hard time letting go of this one because its my first designer bag.

After reading through this I guess I would have to say that I regretted buying the Chanel baby Cabas. That chain on the shoulder was just not user friendly...so I sold it.

Seeing all these posts helped me decide something very important:

I'll pass on the See by Chloe bag and the two Marc Jacobs bags I planned on getting to get that Chloe Paraty that I really want.

Thanks guys! :)

An applique straw bag. I never carry it. I must be in a really bad stage of depression when I bought it. Well, it's still sit in my closet reminding me how much I've spent mindlessly in life.

Two words to sum up my biggest handbag regret:

Eurobella. Collections.

I was naive and thought the Balenciaga was real. Hundreds of dollars and copious tears, calls to the credit card company who bungled it up, months of anguish, no return on the money I lost. The site has gone under, but I believe it's just changed names and still scamming people with their lies.

So sad. Hard lesson I learned.

A white Longchamp le pilage...I REALLY wanted a red one, which they didn't have and convinced myself that the white one was just as good. I LOVE the bag, but it's so dirty now and that bothers me, I can't get it clean!

I also regret buying my first coach bag, it's way too pink and too small, and my first and only juicy bag. Again, too small and not my taste now. I also slightly regret 2 of my dooney and bourke bags, but they were my first designer bags and I felt so special to have them when all of my friends were envious of me :P

A red signature Coach bag...but my niece will love it when I give it to her next week. I carried it ONCE.

An LV Poppincourt (?) - HUGE waste of money. I realized after buying that and getting a monogram Gucci from the hubby for that year's anniversary that I don't like monograms.
