I can’t wait to carry it today and will snap a pic. </p> <p>Joy, I’m glad I could be helpful.</p> <p>nemosmom - PPP for sure. I’d have been happy with last week’s bag too, but I am loving the waxed leather. I knew if the Rack had the bag the sample sale had a strong chance of having something similar. </p> <p>Lisa p - it’s surprisingly hard to find, no? I wanted silver hardware too. The color is called “moon” and the one I saw last week was “true navy.” Also very nice. See my advice below to Suz.</p> <p>Suz - haha, no surprise. Usually the online sample sale goes on at the same time as this, but it doesn’t seem to be on yet. Keep an eye on the RM site I guess. Their current line has very little navy at all, sadly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-tale-of-my-new-%e2%80%9cwardrobe-pet%e2%80%9d#post-2025494 Wed, 08 May 2019 10:15:25 +0000 Anonymous 2025494@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yaas Great bag! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-tale-of-my-new-%e2%80%9cwardrobe-pet%e2%80%9d#post-2025470 Wed, 08 May 2019 06:40:16 +0000 Katerina 2025470@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is perfection!<br /> And a great shopping story. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-tale-of-my-new-%e2%80%9cwardrobe-pet%e2%80%9d#post-2025462 Wed, 08 May 2019 06:01:45 +0000 Elizabeth P 2025462@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh gosh, that is gorgeous!<br /> Worth the wait, and the gamble, for sure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-tale-of-my-new-%e2%80%9cwardrobe-pet%e2%80%9d#post-2025451 Wed, 08 May 2019 05:15:40 +0000 Alicewonderland 2025451@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful!

Must have silver hardware. &nbsp;I have this Minkoff bag in the tote size - in black - and had no idea it came in a handbag size. &nbsp;Must do an on-line search for this.

You have inspired me to return a bag I was going to settle for, something to blend with pink loafers.<br /> The bag in question is really too blush, not the pink I want. I will return it and keep looking. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-tale-of-my-new-%e2%80%9cwardrobe-pet%e2%80%9d#post-2025369 Tue, 07 May 2019 22:41:44 +0000 fifthandfinest 2025369@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it!

Fortunately, my shopping-related talents include spotting things others don’t spot,and making surgical strikes. </p> <p>I was on the hunt for a navy blue work sized purse. Preferably Rebecca Minkoff, and preferably a Regan Satchel Tote. </p> <p>I passed on one Regan I saw last week in a pebbled navy because I am trying to keep to a monthly budget. The month wasn’t quite over, and I also knew that there was a Minkoff sample sale scheduled for this week. I took a gamble and waited. </p> <p>However, RM doesn’t make too many navy bags right now, but since I did a lot of purse shopping 2-4 years ago, I couldn’t really justify anything but a navy bag, preferably my dream bag. (My space is limited and I’m passing on two smaller bags, and possibly a larger one that is too heavy, to help justify this one.) </p> <p>The tables at the sample sale were a sea of other colors, including the right bag model in a teal. I have bags in other shades of blue, just not navy. How can I of all people not own a navy bag that’s big enough to bring to work? I held out against adding to the other blues. </p> <p>Dear readers, to be honest, I almost settled for a random navy bucket bag. I almost gave up. *hangs head*</p> <p>But then my eye caught on something, half hidden by other bags of different colors. It was ONE, and only one, navy blue Regan Satchel Tote. It’s a waxed leather and I like it even better than the pebbled bag I passed on last week. </p> <p>Reader, I bought the bag. And we shall live happily ever after.</p> <p>ETA - took a photo on my way out of the building. </p>
