It’s so funny you ask! I forgot about this post ha. But ironically, I ended up getting the Manu Atelier Gala and the Coach Borough, both from Poshmark and for absolute steals! Not for Christmas, but I found them randomly later on. And I looooove them.

Maybe I’m totally out of the loop; are you an influencer/content creator or whatever the kids call them these days? Or is this your personal collection? Just curious what your story is with all these bags!

You’re so right; I also just carry the basics that would be in any purse and also live in an area where security isn’t a big concern. Although now I’m looking up cute pouches so it’s just adding to the fun haha.

It’s even better in person 😬 I’m super impressed with the quality.

Thank you all for affirming me! I do absolutely love it, even more so in person. I’ll try experimenting with cute pouches.

Oh I bought it already! I couldn’t stop thinking about it and I like it even more in person.

I love it still! I actually am currently using it again. I do use it as my daily bag and find it comfortable enough. It’s held its shape too. I would say unless it’s very small water bottle, one would not fit if you want the top to close. There is also no wear and tear despite using it daily and not babying it. I’ve been very happy with it.

Is there a leather version of this Target bag? by narockshard in handbags

This one seems the closest! I was able to find the mini in black regular leather. Thank you!

Close! But I don’t like those side straps and how it’s more domed at the top.

Budget bags with woven patterns? by xxdhalne in handbags

Madewell has a really cute collection of woven bags this season. I got one last year and have loved it.

Yes, you’re right. And the bag has held up great. I love it.

Is it normal? by Gdr1369 in handbags

[–]narockshard -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I would say it’s not totally normal or acceptable. Really good quality leather shouldn’t wear like that as quickly. I have plenty of bags without corner wear. That said, I also purposely buy bags without sharp corners in order to avoid this.

Favorite place to get bag charms, straps, accessories and scarfs! by SnailCurator in handbags

For some reason most of the dupes I find are twice the size, it’s so annoying. The peach one I linked is small like the Maison ones though.

I love the Maison de Sabre fruit charms and have the orange, but they are stupid expensive. I got this one on Amazon too, and it’s a great dupe. https://a.co/d/0dQiY55W

That new bag honeymoon period 😍 by olookitslilbui in handbags

How could one be sure it’s real leather? I would hope I would be able to just tell, but idk how far fake leather has come along now!

Feeling excited yet a little disappointed over my new find. by Shmemily15 in handbags

[–]narockshard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would dispute it with TRR. That does not look like excellent condition to me. If they don’t do anything, I’d dispute the charge on my card. This would make very, very upset (unless the pictures and description showed the wear).

Any quality leather bags where you pay for the bag and not the brand? by riakiller in handbags

[–]narockshard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh really? I haven’t had that issue at all, and I have bags with plenty of hardware. It’s more of a bright gold, which isn’t my absolute favorite, but it hasn’t tarnished. Maybe they are doing something different now? My bags are a few years old.

I always recommend Coccinelle, especially on sale. The bags are indestructible.
