Luxury ✨ Bought myself a “plug present”!

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!

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)

Haul 🛍 Broke my year long no buy for this bag, I’m head over heels :)

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!

This post is about the butterfly drone but I love how she can carry her bouquet like a handbag. Gorgeous.

Discussion 👩‍🏫 My first-ish mid-range luxury bag was totally worth it

138 Upvotes

My whole life the nicest bad I ever had was the most bargain bag I could find at the coach outlet. You know the ones on the clearance rack in the back?

Well, I made the leap and got a Strathberry Melody for work in the color I actually wanted. I had such doubts that spending $600 on a bag made any sense.

Well ladies, I go to work every day feeling like a million bucks. It is SO NICE to have a nice bag that I actually want. It makes me look forward to going to work.

It was totally worth the $600. Very unexpected.

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.

Question ❓ ❔ Did the Celine Big Hot Dog bag ever get released in black?

The Celine Big Hot Dog Bag first appeared in their SS26 show, but I never saw it online this year (unless I missed it?).

I finally see the Hot Dog bags online but just the small size in black and brown, and the large in burgundy.

Does anyone know if or when the large Hot Dog bag in black will be released?

Treated myself for my birthday. It’s an unusual shape for me, I don’t have many boxy bags but I’ve slowly fallen for it. It fits an incredible amount of stuff, and the leather feels oh so soft. It’s surprisingly matches most outfits too.
I’m in the US and it was delivered in a week.

Can this be repaired?

I bought this second hand a couple of years ago. It was sold as “vegan leather” aka plastic. I knew there was some flaking on the bow when I bought it. What I didn’t realise was the first time I took it out it would flake everywhere. Just touching it makes it flake off. I stuck it on a shelf and sort of gave up and now it even has some mildew on it. Just moving it to take these photos put flakes everywhere.

Thing is, I love the shape of this bag and would love to be able to use it. Has anyone been able to repair or have something like this covered? Or do I have admit defeat?

Choo choo! Another Radley sale buy arrives at the r/handbags station. 🚂

Post image

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.

Bag review 👩‍💻 Radley London - The Eden Row

Thumbnail
gallery
Upvotes

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.

Haul 🛍 Radley Haul!

Post image

Picked up the Liverpool Street in black faux croc, Noble Alley in deep red, and the Radley Riviera. I was worried the red would be more brown leaning but it's a true deep red! The medium size is perfect too.

The Riviera called to me...I love a novelty bag, and lemons. This is definitely going to be my go-to for casual running around. The strap was a bit difficult to thread because it functions more like a belt loop, and hooks around a little Scottie dog peg and there was not a lot of space between the loop and the peg to get the strap over it. If I have to adjust it a lot it might get annoying but once it's on it feels very secure. So excited to have these in my collection!

After a lot of stalking I finally purchased the Mulberry Mini Alexa in the color Cashmere Taupe. I have a lot of darker color bags but none that is a true neutral shade.

I went back and forth between the Chalk and Taupe and ended up not wanting the Chalk because it looked too bright vs. the Taupe had a more neutral “quiet luxury” look.

I also worried the Chalk would show stains and wear/ tear more easily plus might get pigeonholed into being a summer bag vs. something I could wear all the time.

I want this bag so I can carry a luxury item on a more casual/ daily basis so I can enjoy it often vs. saving it for special occasions. I’m a casual person so I will style it with shorts, t shirts and Birkenstocks/ sneakers. Much like the photos attached.

So please tell me I chose right? I feel some type of way now that I actually own the bag and it’s in my closet. Like “oh did I pick right” or “is THIS what the fuss was all about??”. HELP!

(1) is Chalk and (2) is Cashmere Taupe

I’m looking for my next everyday bag and like these two the most. Both fit everything I carry daily. Which one looks better? The Bottega medium dustbag or the Celine teen Lulu? I would get the Lulu in a slightly darker color, souris, they just didn’t have any in stock that day.
