If I had to replace only 5 bags in my collection – Tag

This tag has been going around Youtube again and I decided that Id like to try this challenge with the bags I have.

I have a pretty decent collection of mostly mid-range contemporary brands. (Like Coach and MK) and did sell several of my more luxury pieces a few months ago. Im not really attached to most of what I have but there are several bags I really would never sell and the pieces Ive chosen here are all non-negotiables. You wont find these for sale.

Michael Kors quilted leather Sloan crossbody/wallet on chain. This one is obviously inspired by a Chanel flap bag. This bag is PERFECT for a night out or more formal occasion. There are card slots and a zip pocket inside and the chain is the perfect length to wear this bag on your shoulder or as a crossbody.

Michael Kors quilted leather Susannah tote. This tote is great. I bought it because I wanted a Chanel tote that is quite similar but cannot bear to part with that much money. There are compartments and slip pockets and it has the right amount of smoosh. This tote is a few years old and always needs conditioning and shaping but its still fantastic!

Sam Edelman Naya camera bag – I bought this because I really wanted a red Gucci Soho Disco bag and couldnt afford it. (I now know this style of bag is one of my favorites) Its not leather but its so soft and malleable. I can fit everything I need including snacks! This is one of my favorites to wear to a concert. I dont have to worry about it at all!

Coach Willis. I was so torn between the now discontinued Cassie and this bag, but this bag wins because of its durability. This specific bag is from the early 90s and its still in great shape. You cant beat the leather in a vintage Coach bag. It holds a ton and I took this bag to the hospital when my daughter in law had our grandson, so theres a lot of sentimentality (I think I just made that word up)

Louis Vuitton Palm Springs Mini. This bag is so adorable. It holds more than you think it will. It is worry free since the leather is treated and canvas is nearly indestructible. I would love to get the larger size backpack that has the soft shoulder straps but that is out of my budget.

Do you have bags you would definitely replace if something happened to them?

5 bags I would not buy again

First – apologies for not posting last week. Its been – something.

I saw this tag going around youtube recently and thought it would be fun to share the bags I would not buy again as well. As we all say – if you have any of these bags and love them – Im happy for you.

Coach Backpack – I literally bought this thinking it would be smaller. Its a great bag for when you are out and about, but I only use it twice a year. I havent used it at all this year since social events have been off the table.

Michael Kors Ava mini – I love this bag in theory. Its absolutely adorable. But its way too small and Ive found that I just dont use blue bags.

Rebecca Minkoff Amorous – This bag turned out to be larger than I expected. Its a fantastic bag and its very durable especially for the weather we have here in the mid-atlantic. Despite the mint color I chose, (that doesnt come up in this photo) its still very professional looking.

Rebecca Minkoff Regan mini – I have two of these. I just dont like this color as much as I thought I would. I prefer my pink distressed mini but its not a style I love anymore.

Sam Edelman Marion crossbody – I purchased this to see if I would like a similar styled more expensive bag. Not only do I not like this style, I dont like this less pricy version. The compartments are too small and the bag gets too thick to close.

I should also add that almost all of these bags are listed on my Poshmark, so if you are interested, contact me over there. If you create a bundle and mention this blog post on any listing, Ill give you 20% off!

Do you have any bags you wouldnt buy again?
