Glad you treated yourself to these. I will echo what Diane said: these new bags may not be structured, but to my eye they are still ladylike. So perhaps not as far away from your current style as you first thought?<br />Also: how fun is that apple studded bag:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-style-direction-yet-again#post-1154124 Fri, 31 Jan 2014 13:47:01 +0000 Anonymous 1154124@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm... not sure. I don't necessarily see them as unladylike. The clutch/shoulder bag is in a feminine sort of shade and although it has studs the apple shape is quirky and playful. It could be styled with feminine or edgy items. I really like the embossed pattern on your tote and again you could style it ladylike or more masculine depending on what you wore. The satchel style in #3 is practical and interesting with the tassel. Perhaps the least feminine, but then you could wear it with a dress for nice juxtaposition. I think you are perhaps getting an eye for more interesting and versatile pieces? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-style-direction-yet-again#post-1154082 Fri, 31 Jan 2014 12:21:01 +0000 ramya 1154082@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This month I ended up purchasing 3 more bags to my already substancial bag collection(I have 8). But to be fair these are the first bags I purchased in well over 2 years. All others were gifted to me. All others , I like them but not necessarily love them anymore.</p> <p>These 3 bags are essentially very different from each other and of course, very different from&nbsp; what I have.<br />These are in a way, very different from what I thought was my style.<br />Bag 1: Clutch, which can double up as cross body. Nude in colour with studs. But the studs are apple shaped :D<br />Bag 2: A large leather tote. These are essentially for my ladies club where in we tote in large crafts(knitting, sewing, crochet etc.). This may also double up as my travelling handbag, or days I have to lug stuff to office:D.The embrossed skin was previously something I wouldn't buy. I stayed for clean classic lady like bag. This feels rough (to me)<br />Bag 3: A Pewter crossbody with tassel. This is a kind of bag, I was in hunt for long, but what makes it different is , it has a tassel. But I love it.</p> <p>My bag style was previously very structured and ladylike. Plus simple.I see now these are essentially very different.I wonder, am I changing again or am I simply over analyzing stuff?</p> <p>Inputs ladies? </p>
