A thread where we can post photos of our bags (and accessories), lovingly arranged in artful poses.

I’ll post some later; first I need to have breakfast.

@SpeckledyHen I udder to be in TPF but it’s a few years since I last logged on.

Sexnotgender · 03/04/2020 10:18

I’ve not been on TPF for ages either.

@chocolatesaltyballs22 thank you, I did not know the factory shop was online. I’ve just ordered a new tote which will be perfect for work.

chocolatesaltyballs22 · 03/04/2020 10:48

Ooh don't forget to post a pic when it arrives!

Ninkanink · 03/04/2020 10:49

Oh such wonderful collections! I love all the deep, earthy colours in the heritage Mulberry collections.

I’ve got ladylike down quite well, if I do say so myself...shame I’ve not got the budget for a Chanel!

Love your LV @chocolatesaltyballs22. There are SO MANY bags I want!

@MrsK your tote is fantastic.

My bag for today hasn’t been photographed as the light isn’t great. But I’ve got a bonus bag photo i took yesterday instead - my Cath Kidston hold-all/huge handbag which I use for weekend trips/hotels/visits to friends and family. The print is so lovely and cheerful, it makes me happy every time I look at it, and the bag itself is so practical and fits a load of stuff.

I don’t even want to look at the Mulberry link. 😔😔

I've had a look @ninkanink. Nothing which grabs me - unusual for me!

Ninkanink · 03/04/2020 11:33

Oh I can always find something I want! Off the top of my head I could definitely justify a tote, a medium casual crossbody, another evening bag...

Ah well. Time to do some chores!

I just wondered if we ‘knew’ you Tattie on the Mulberry forum which was very lively years ago .

TattiePants · 03/04/2020 17:24

@SpeckledyHen I was never a prolific poster on tpf but I've just found a really old login and an old 'family' picture from 2012. Only 4 of these bags remain.

Today’s bag:

Anya Hindmarch Belvedere.

This is a gorgeous warm colour, and I love the design too. I need a small casual bag in this or a very similar colour, as well as an evening bag (preferably a clutch), because it just goes perfectly with everything!

This is my baby. It was given to me from my celebrity neighbour when she was moving out.
I adore it.

Some lovely bags on this thread. I’m definitely going to look on the Mulberry link.
Loving your Chanel bag @Thickmuthafuckers & your Belvedere @Ninkanink.

As the weather is fair today, I’m loving my beach bag

Some beautiful bags on here! Love seeing everyone's collections. I love handbags and would love to treat myself to a Mulberry one day when the DC are bigger and it won't end up full of their snotty tissues and snacks!

My favourite evening bags are here. Sadly little used but much loved! I got the Ted Baker in TK Maxx for £39.99 - I couldn't really justify it as had a bag the same colour from Dorothy Perkins but it was sooo pretty so I thought I'd bring it home, look at it a lot then return it. My DM convinced me I needed to keep it - not that I needed much persuasion! They had a rose gold one in a slightly different style too. I often think of it and regret not buying that one as well.... the Karen Millen and Radley were surprise 40th birthday presents.

Will post my favourite daytime bags later.

I bought this Modalu with my Christmas bonus about 12 years ago. I love it just as much as I did then and I think being bashed about has added to it's charm!

Lovely collection Tattie . Which ones do you still have ?

Ninkanink · 05/04/2020 14:32

Oh how wonderful, more fantastic bags! I like how with time a handbag also starts to act as a memory holder for various periods in our lives.

I’ve kind of lost my mojo so not sure I’ll post photos today...but maybe tomorrow.

I’m so in the mood for shopping right now.

I've been browsing the bag shops, this thread has inspired me... just can't justify spending right now! Hope you get your mojo back soon Ninkanink.

@SpeckledyHen I still have the oak Alexa, Gunmetal Belle, Chocolate Bonnie and the Drizzle Daria although that will be sold when I get round to it.

nzeire · 05/04/2020 22:18

Loving the excitement here... don’t actually “get it” myself, but dig your enthusiasm!
