Some Excellent Bags

Sale PSA: Very cute knotted leather sandals from By Far, now $220, easy bike shorts from Everlane, now $27, distressed cropped jeans from Levis, now $60, and a cool shirt/jacket from Uniqlo x Theory, now $50 (this is nice!).

Hi! I’m a little wiped. We just got back from a long weekend in Carmel (more on that in a future update) and I still have another load of laundry to do. I did however do some online browsing when I was there..and noticed there are a lot of GREAT bags lately. Really! Some of my recent favorites, below:

Bottega padded cassette bag. This has been on my list for YEARS. UGH. What’s stopped me every time is i already have so many little crossbody bags. But that’s because they are so useful for my lifestyle! I have always liked this shape and style and this dark patent green is *chefs kiss*

I know this is another exact bag as above but this is the black patent flat leather version. Also so good. I worry sometimes that the padded version will be too bulky on my frame…in which case I would opt for this. I have been wanting a patent bag lately for some reason.

I won’t be getting this because I already have a puzzle. But isn’t this just the perfect, most beautiful, lovely blue color? Not too dark, not too light. Lovely with the black contrast. Just such a nice, lovely color (does Hermes have a blue like this? Anyone know)? It’s great for all year.

The Row Mignon bag. A beautiful silhouette, a rich super dark brown, just the right size and length for crossbody (on short me), and so sleek. I really like this one and it also comes in a great dark green.

Man! There really are so many great bags lately. Anyone else feeling this? What are you eyeing?

    I already have a puzzle as well and I really need a great tan/brown go-to bag. Everything I consider I compare to my red puzzle. I’m seriously considering just getting it in another color. What do you think? Do you have any favorite tan/brown cross bodies?

    The Row bags look so sumptuous but that price tag gives me hives! Kathy, will you ever give us an update of your handbag collection? Always loved your reviews, and it (if not too intrusive) would be cool to see what 2021 you has vs. 2011-2015 🙂

      I second that! It’s always nice to see wardrobe evolution as opposed to flavour of the month!

    Please do a post about your bag collection! I would love to see how the Puzzle looks on you as I am about the same height.
