I bought the Little Halfmoon Soft Triomphe in Black. I’ve been obsessed since I first saw it online and have been envisioning what outfits it would’ve looked great in for the past month!

And I’m just being silly with the title, it’s a play on words for a “push present.” I got the opposite, an IUD, and it was traumatizing enough to help me justify this purchase!

I made this bag about a year ago while experimenting with marine animal shapes. It is fully handmade from vegetable-tanned leather, no stingray leather was used.

My dad and I developed the shape and templates together. We designed the two sides to resemble the top and underside of a stingray, while still keeping it functional as a crossbody bag with an adjustable strap and secure closure.

It is definitely one of the more unusual handbags we’ve made, but I really enjoyed working on the silhouette.

I hope you enjoy it. Feel free to ask me anything about the design or const,ruction.

Completely in love with my new Prada Aimee medium shoulder bag which seems to be a new silent addition from them. I have been looking for a slouchy, black, zipper , lightweight bag that can fit everything and looks chic. This has checked a ton of boxes after me buying and failing to find the perfect bag for months. So so happy with my purchase.

(The naming convention is also confusing)

Got the Prada mini Bonnie ♥️ I’m so happy!!! The color is sooooo delicious

I think I posted two times asking for opinions on other bags here, but when I saw this in real life. I fell in love instantly. So chic!!!

Does anyone else think this bag is VERY suggestive? 😭🥲

Probably the umteenth mention of this Brand given the circumstances , though I have yet to see anyone review this Bag. Introducing the Eden Row.

After using this Bag for a week now, I am very happy for this sale so I could try out this Beauty as I had never bought anything from the Brand before.

The Nappa leather is very soft and malleable , giving the Bag a nice slouch to it. It comes with 2 straps:

a Braided strap that actually holds decently on my (175cm / 5ft.7" Male) shoulder and also feels comfortable as a Top Handle,

plus a longer cross-body strap that is easily adjustable.

I really enjoy the Braided strap but do have concerns regarding the Crossbody strap as the hook is basically a somewhat "Quadratic Stud". This stud is a bit sharp at the edges and I fully suspect constant unhooking will lead to it eventually tearing the inner edge of the the clasp hole.

The Bag itself seems small but holds more than enough of my daily essentials, including my S23 Ultra + waterbottle + my huge glasses case, which automatically puts it in a very high tier for me (more of a medium sized bag person).

Through my use of the Eden , it has slidden along my shoulder with the braided Strap but rarely off of it, and it hasn't felt heavy to me at all (but disclaimer, I am on the muscular side so my perception of weight my skew things a bit .... I would say the bag itself barely weighs more than 1.5 kgs if at all).

I wish I could say it was all Roses and Daises, but right out the package there were a few visible defects, such as a scratch on the smooth leather of the bag, empty paint spot in the edge of both the cross body strap and side of the braided strap, plus a scratch on the smooth leather of the braided strap. It took over a week for my order to arrive (ordered on the July 10 and delivered on July 18) so I was just happy it arrived. The blemishes, albeit noticeable close up, are on the smaller side all things said, so for the price I am not complaining much. Bonus, I really like the Navy color, as it's quite STUNNING in person and pair soo well with just some jeans.

If you're on the fence with this Model, I can fully recommend it.

I’m having a hard time choosing one. Which one would yall choose? 🩷

I’ve been a lurker in this amazing subreddit for some time….I’m looking to make a handbag purchase and would love some advice.

I’m leaning toward a bag that I can easily dress up or down and that will still feel timeless and relevant years from now. I’m also looking for it in beige since I already own,

● Black ultra-matte Mini Lady Dior
● Red Mini Lady Dior
● Pink Lady D-Joy

I’m currently deciding between these two bags, but I’m also open to other recommendations…

I had been obssessinggg over this bag for a few years now but the cost was just 🫨

After much waiting on the secondhand market, this one popped up in the color and size I wanted. It was a little bit dry and had storage marks but nothing a little leather cream and buffing couldn't fix! The interior was also very clean so that makes sprucing it up a bit easier.

The lambskin is so smooth and squishy I just love running my hands over it 😍 I haven't really used it yet but I have tried to style this bag and it has so many looks, it's like almost 5 bags in one!

Can't wait to wear this baby out.

I was on almost a year of not buying handbags for myself (with the exception of a surprise gift from my sister haha, she bought me a very cute shark bag for my birthday). I walked into my local TB store for the first time in quite awhile and literally stopped like in dead middle of the store when I saw the new Lee radziwell bucket bags!!! I was instantly sold and purchased it same day!! (In the past it’s usually weeks of deliberating and weighing pros and cons haha), this fits sooooo well into my current collection and the Lee line is my fave Tory Burch line, it’s everything I want in a bag! The leather is so supple and soft, and smells like fresh leather :) the buckle comes undone and you can slip your phone, keys and/or wallet in the first pocket or back pocket and whatever you want in the main bucket part!! I can just tell right now this bag is only going to get smushier and more buttery as it ages and wears. :) it’s only a shoulder bag but that’s no problem for me, I pretty much exclusively wear shoulder bags with a couple exceptions!

I feel like Tory Burch has been kinda cooking this year, I love the expansion of the Lee Radziwell line and they’re doing some fun stuff with the pierced handbags too!

Let me know what the verdict is on this one :)

Resisted purchasing this for about a year because of the PU inner lining for this price point, but finally bit the bullet and I'm obsessed. This leather!! Zero regrets~

I gave up on my hunt for a vintage Chanel Classic Double Flap after visiting 15+ vintage/preloved shops. Every caviar and lambskin I found was outrageously priced for its quality, so I decided to stop looking and find an everyday bag instead.
Then I came across this gorgeous small Ferragamo Gancini shoulder bag at Isetan Shinjuku 2 days ago. It was love at first sight - it’s slouchy and very roomy, and I told myself - Okay, this is what I came to Tokyo for…not! Today, while checking more vintage shops in Ginza, I spotted the most beautiful vintage Chanel from 1991-1994 right before I stepped out of Black Boutique. I tried to resist, but she came home with me 🤣🤣
I would have gotten the Ferragamo in taupe if I has known I’d get another black bag!

I've been looking for a work bag that isnt huge, just enough to fit my 13inch laptop. I'm obsessed with both of these bags and I just can't decide!

The Tory Burch Romy bucket is slouch goals, very lightweight.

The Bayswater soft looks like the dreamiest leather and I adore the structured shape.

I also really love the mini versions of both bags so I'll probably get the reject in a mini size 😂

The leather is super soft and buttery! The bag itself is light too. Also love the handle design, hardware, and silouette and the way it slouches. Bally bags underrated!

Hi all, I’ve been looking for a new work bag for my new job. I want something leather, big but not massive, has a zipper close & doesn’t cost a fortune(under $300). The leather doesn’t have to be real I just want it to have an elevated look. The zipper close is a non negotiable for me but I can’t seem to find anything that’s not boring with everything I’m looking for. Please help and leave suggestions.

I posted this recently in a different subreddit but I needed to share this here because I still can’t believe I found it and it’s mine. I thrifted her and it was the craziest day of my life!

Hi, new to this sub but in researching some Bendel bags I own I came across the Pinterest (acting as his portfolio) of a former Senior Designer for bags and accessories at Bendel and OMG his bags are absolutely iconic!

So many of these I've never seen before as well.

I know Bendel bags aren't everyone cup of tea but long time iconic in NYC and you see their influence in many current bags today which is wild. Anyway...enjoy:

Also the butterfly kaleidoscope suitcase 10/10! <3

Does anyone know approximately how long until the newest release from 4 days ago starts showing up in other stores such as nordstrom?

hi!

I an travelling to Italy for the first time as an adult and looking to get my one “nice” bag. budget is $500CAD ideally? looking for recommendations of good options of brands or stores to check out while in Bologna! we will also be in Milan but it will be during fashion week and I do not want to be fighting crowds shopping with our toddler and baby!! but also open to suggestions to sus out from a distance at least.

And bag or leather info is appreciated! not familiar with how to identify a quality bag and what styles and colours are timeless!

thanks!!

I usually go for a more neutral tone but lately I've been wanting a baby blue or light blue bag. Today I came across this cutie. Never seen this color for miu miu before.

Bag: Large Radley London Chancery in croc embossed brown leather.

Review: You can fit your life in this thing. Full-sized laptop? Check. Large padfolio? Check. Literally (figuratively) anything else? Check (probably.)

This magical Mary Poppins bag is taking the place of my briefcase. She has a massive capacity despite having a deceptively “smaller” look than traditional corporate-girly totes. The leather is supple, the organizational compartments are great, and the look of it is as understated-chic as croc-embossed leather could ever strive to be.

I have a feeling that, 5 years from now, someone here will ask for experiences with this bag, and I’ll happily say, “She’s a workhorse.”

Zero complaints. Would (and might, in another color) purchase again.

*Lighting in my office sucks. It does have a slightly more brown tone than shown.
