What's the bag that got away?

I'm sentimental at heart - I fall in love with things and then pine after them if they become discontinued...although sometimes I get lucky on the pre-loved market...:biggrin:
There was the Tod's Miky (the classic, in smooshy tan pebbled leather)
The Tom Ford YSL 2003 Dali lips clutch (again, in camel or tan leather - those pleats and that enamel :heart:)
The Tom Ford YSL 2001 (?) satin cigarette case - which I magically managed to snag BNIB - :nuts:

I still have my original Miky in black, and cannot part with it!
 
The Chloé Paraty in Periwinkle Blue, I feel head over heels for this bag a couple of years ago but it was always a rare colour which made tracking it down near to impossible and then just got discontinued completely which broke my heart- I still put it on my wish lists even though I know I won't see it again. Maybe one day, I'll get the bag in another colour to soothe my heart!
 
I have a few but the one that sticks out for me is the BV curry Sloane, BV did a killer sale years ago, I bought it then sold thinking I could easily get another. I have not seen one for a good price since.

Barenia birkin, I bought it sold it, never seen one in such perfect condition since. If I love a bag, I baby it and don't use it. Nuts!!

LV Camo Speedy, LV roses neverfull or speedy. I cannot bring myself to pay resellers premium, LV will come out with other beautiful patterns right lol
 
Thanks to the pre-owned market, I have changed my thought process from the "one that got away" to the "one I'm on the hunt for."

This recent acquisition is a testament.
Beautiful! I'm on the hunt, as well.
 
Wish I would have bought a Mulberry Bayswater when they were made of that thick "Darwin leather" years ago and were still made in England. Or a Ledbury. I hesitated a bit too long.
