Hi everyone, I have an unusual question what need your input. I quit working a year ago and every since I'm living a happy no-stressed life. Everyday, I drop of my kids and pick them up from school, I have lots of time for working out. I do daily running and yoga, every other day I do jiujitsu, kick boxing, and bootcamp so basically, I wear all work-out outfits such as leggings (long and short) and tech-tee shirt. For months, all my Chanel classic flaps and Almas have been sitting in the closet. I only use cross body Alma BB, the smallest size Sangle Celine and Deville Tote Chanel. I don't carry a lot so I use the Deville tote only to go shopping at the mall and I don't want to carry shopping bags.

Recently, I really want to buy a new bag. I love all these 3 options:
1) Burgundy Nano Belt bag
2) Stom or Souris Nano luggage tote
3) Tan color Bucket Big bag

I already tried all three bags on me and all of them I can wear cross body very comfortable because I'm very petite.

Oh, one more questions: since I don't use other formal bags like Chanel flaps and Alma PM. should I sale them? I'm 40 and I don't think I would go back to work but who know, right? I do love all these bags and also it took me a lot of time and effort to buy them years ago. I have been thinking of letting them go but every time I took them out of their dust bags, I hugged them and put them back. They are so pretty. However, I'm also a very practical person. I don't like things sitting there and do not bring any benefits to my life. What if one day I die, my kids would go through my stuff, when they see all these bags, they would say "what on earth mama were thinking?"

Please input and tell me your honest opinion. I don't get upset when people tell me the truth. Thanks

I think out of the 3 choices the nano luggage would go great with workout clothes.

I don't think you should sell your alma bb as you can wear it out to dinner. The Chanel flap goes with workout clothes in my opinion so I think you need to rock this look! I wear a lot of workout clothes as well and I think if you wear black and white clothes, it will go well with the flap.

I feel like we are sort of living parallel lives, I recently stopped working for a few months (but plan to start again in September) and during the time I have been trying to get back in shape while my kids are in preschool, so I’ve been working out and mostly living in work out clothes. I also have been eyeing the Celine big bag bucket because I want something that will look good with casual clothes or atheleisure attire (spelling?) I just haven’t pulled the trigger on the big bag bucket because I feel guilty that there are so many other cheaper bucket bags (I also have a Mansur Gavriel bucket). Still, I can’t get it out of my mind, hopefully someone else in this forum will enable me to purchase it!!

Yes, I keep the Alma BB for sure as it is the only bag I have with crossbody option. I was thinking if selling the Alma PM. I'm glad you think the Chanel flaps go well with workout outfits. I will try that.

How do you like your Mansur's bucket? I'm eyeing it for years hahaha, I just can't pull the trigger on Mansur bucket because I don't get to see it In person vs the celine cost more but my local store is just 6 miles away.

Yeah, I love it at first glane, However, it sticks out a little bit due to the round bottom sharp. I still think any colors other than the bllk are very casual and would go easy with workout outfits

Are you a fan of the Trio? The Trio literally goes well with ANY outfit.

I love the MG bucket because it’s very understated, cool, super light and great price point. I use to baby it because of scratches but I stopped doin that because I wanted to enjoy the bag and the scratches eventually patina with the rest of the leather and it’s not a big deal to me anymore.

Neiman Marcus carries a limited number of their bags in store if you ever want to try it on.
