Except for the first, the others are used year around. The others are used in F/W. I have additional bags but I am thinking I should pass some on. Haven’t shown my totes beyond the one I use for Nordstrom returns. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwsummer-bags-etc#post-1944221 Thu, 02 Aug 2018 15:23:55 +0000 Angie 1944221@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Christina, </b>you have gorgeous bags.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwsummer-bags-etc#post-1944174 Thu, 02 Aug 2018 14:02:00 +0000 Becky 1944174@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the striped bags, <b>RunCarla</b>! And wear that library badge proudly! I love all the turquoise bags so many of you are showing off. LOL, <b>Elizabeth P</b>! That's why I can't go bagless. My current every day bag (minus the days I need a backpack or the very rare formal occasion when I carry the clutch), is the Fossil Corey Crossbody in marine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwsummer-bags-etc#post-1944171 Thu, 02 Aug 2018 13:59:00 +0000 LaPed 1944171@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love seeing all these bag collections! Here are mine (like Jenn, mine is a year-round assortment, rather than seasonal) -- pure function, but I'm really in love with all four of them. The Baggu circle bag is new this spring, the turquoise Flowfold tote was a Christmas gift, the Lemur convertible clutch was a birthday splurge las year, and the Tom Bihn has been around for more than four years -- it was my "diaper bag" for DS and my only bag for quite a while (it was preceded by another green messenger bag that got stolen -- I still miss that one). I'm not including my backpacks; those are exclusively gear and would merit a separate post. :)</p> <p>This is definitely the most bags I've ever owned, and I'm toying with the idea of adding one or two more (gasp!). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwsummer-bags-etc#post-1944170 Thu, 02 Aug 2018 13:56:19 +0000 Christina F. 1944170@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>I'm mostly carrying the silver sylon backpack to work, because it's been raining, and with my back injury (slowly recovering), a backpack's distributed weight is just better for me right now. I also carry the straw tote or fanny pack (ahem, "belt bag") around my neighborhood.</div><div><br /></div><div>The others are what I'm carrying when I feel more able to use a shoulder or crossbody bag. The white one (top row) is my new pet, to replace a white one that didn't work out and is going to my mother. Even if I can't carry it this summer, I'll get use out of it in the future. The light blue (bottom row) has been a workhorse, along with the backpack.<br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwsummer-bags-etc#post-1944159 Thu, 02 Aug 2018 13:12:04 +0000 Adriana 1944159@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Elizabeth P, I'm afraid to be on facebook. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwsummer-bags-etc#post-1944158 Thu, 02 Aug 2018 13:10:07 +0000 Adriana 1944158@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisap, they are Vivienne Westwood, bought via Yoox.

These are the bags I’ve been using the last couple of weeks, and the stuff I generally carry. I’ve been taking a lapidary class, and have used my grey seatbelt bag because the location is dusty, and I need to carry extra stuff. We use grinders that are water cooled. After getting drenched the first class, I started taking an apron with me. Here is a finished cabochon, and one I’m still working on. </p> <p>1. Vintage Coach bag, Harvey’s seatbelt bag, Sak crossbody, Sak guitar strap crossbody.<br /> 2. Sunglasses, reading glasses, keys, owl wallet, and doodad bag.<br /> 3. Cabochons </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwsummer-bags-etc#post-1943795 Wed, 01 Aug 2018 16:57:05 +0000 Barbara Diane 1943795@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Primarily using this older grayed blue Longchamp tote this summer. But it is worn out on the corners so considering adding feet or replacing it.</p> <p>During fall and winter I use my navy and black Longchamps. I like the fact that they are light weight as I overstuff my bags. I throw in packages, sweaters, books, etc. However I am wearying of the search for phone, keys, etc. </p> <p>I have a lighter fabric crossbody/shoulder/waist bag for walks only.</p> <p>For the occasional dressy occasion I carry a black quilted fabric DNKY bag with fabric and chain handles.</p> <p>I have other bags but these get almost all of the use. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwsummer-bags-etc#post-1943790 Wed, 01 Aug 2018 16:35:00 +0000 Angie 1943790@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>RunCarla</b>, I like your striped bag too.</p> <p>NICE bags, ladies. Just looking at them makes me smile.</p> <p>I have LOTS of bags. I am utterly devoted to each one. Here's what's been in high rotation for Spring &amp; Summer 2018:</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwsummer-bags-etc#post-1943786 Wed, 01 Aug 2018 16:07:02 +0000 Colette 1943786@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have been trying to find a new summer bag for a couple years with no success. I'm being ridiculously picky. But, I scored a vintage woven bag so I've been carrying that a ton this summer. I've also pulled out an old hobo bag from my archive and I use various clutches for going out. I don't have pictures or finds for of all of them.</p> <p>I use a purse organizer to keep everything in it's place and make it easy to switch purses. For smaller bags and clutches I usually just grab my wallet, phone and lip stuff. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwsummer-bags-etc#post-1943767 Wed, 01 Aug 2018 15:46:29 +0000 Anonymous 1943767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I missed the organized bag class somewhere along the way, and my purses and my work backpack are absolute nightmares at the best of times. &nbsp;Despite having bought every lovely cosmetic bag, eyeglasses case, planner/pen set etc etc, my bags are a sea of receipts , kleenex, sunglasses, eyeglasses, Tic Tac containers, pens, notebooks, and all of the lipsticks I can't seem to find when I'm getting ready in the morning . &nbsp;<br />I've given up trying to be *that* person.</p> <p>Elizabeth, Janet - I love that silver tote. Gorgeous. &nbsp;And the turquoise hobo too. &nbsp;Carla - that Fossil tote is a real classic. I've always loved it and wonder from time to time if I should add something like that to my summer collection. Perfect for tossing things into on an errand-running day.</p> <p>Here's my summer rotation - minus my red Prada satchel, which is about 15 years old and still going strong.</p> <p>Olive leather Coach, black leather Coach/silver hardware, white leather Kors, black nylon Marc Jacobs/gold hardware, blue leather Marc Jacobs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwsummer-bags-etc#post-1943757 Wed, 01 Aug 2018 15:38:36 +0000 Adriana 1943757@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I use two summerbags (totes) and one small satchel.<br /> Your picture of what is inside reminds me off a (mens?) site, called edc " every day carry" where men showed what they had in their pockets. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwsummer-bags-etc#post-1943746 Wed, 01 Aug 2018 15:10:19 +0000 Jenn 1943746@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I keep pretty much all my bags in rotation year-round, but the heavy-hitters are the two cognac Fossils—crossbody and tote. </p> <p>Inside I keep a little pouch with essentials like tampons, lipstick, solid sunscreen, and ibuprofen. Also, a reusable bag, keys, wallet, phone, and pen. In larger bags, I’ll also add my iPad mini (which acts my eReader), my Moleskine planner notebook, and a portable charger. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwsummer-bags-etc#post-1943740 Wed, 01 Aug 2018 14:50:09 +0000 Janet 1943740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like those stripes. :-)</p> <p>These are my heavy rotation summer bags. Waving at Elizabeth, my bag twin! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwsummer-bags-etc#post-1943721 Wed, 01 Aug 2018 14:07:34 +0000 Sisi 1943721@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like your striped bag! And the content is so colorful!</p> <p>At present I am using a&nbsp;small white clutch where I can just put&nbsp;wallet, keys, office badges, tissues,&nbsp;lipstick,&nbsp;phone,&nbsp;chewing-gum.&nbsp;If I need to take something else (yoga clothes, snacks/fruits, bills to check)&nbsp;then I also bring&nbsp;with me a pretty backpack. </p> <p>I noticed that&nbsp; working women, including my coworkers, do this a lot - taking the "pretty" bag and another "convenience" bag. </p> <p></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwsummer-bags-etc#post-1943717 Wed, 01 Aug 2018 14:03:10 +0000 Elizabeth P 1943717@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p> <div>&nbsp;Can you post a better pic of ht Harvey's bag?&nbsp; Love to see yours, as I have a Harvey's bag too... mine is used in the winter.&nbsp; I love it, it looks dressy yet is so low maintenance.&nbsp; I was very glad to be carrying mine when a colleague dumped a cup of coffee into it at a conference... I was able to rinse it out in the sink!</div><div><br /></div><div>I'm carrying my silver Millie, and my turquoise Hobo, for the most part.&nbsp; With the occasional visit from my cobalt Danier, and citron Kate Spade. Happy colours plus a neutral. <br /></div><div><br /></div><div>Oh, and a black small Longchamps for cottage weekends and soccer games :)<br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiwsummer-bags-etc#post-1943701 Wed, 01 Aug 2018 13:43:39 +0000 Carla 1943701@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This summer I am rotating the 3 bags pictured below:</p> <p>Harvey's seatbelt bag<br /> Fossil striped tote<br /> Jansport back pack </p> <p>I pick the bag based on my outfit. The Fossil bag adds a pop of colour to my otherwise neutral wardrobe and I use it when I am wearing blue based outfits. The Seatbelt bag is used when I wear black based outfits. The backpack is used on days when I will be doing a lot of walking (Thursday is library day). </p> <p>Inside are:</p> <p>Red wallet<br /> Purple change purse<br /> Day timer<br /> Pen<br /> Keys<br /> Plastic bag<br /> Tissue<br /> Sleeve for glasses</p> <p>The sleeve is for when DH hands me his sunglasses so they don't get scratched! I often add a lippy, small notebook, and a measuring tape. I no longer need to carry a pouch for 'feminine hygiene products' but used to always.</p> <p>(Edited to add better pic of seatbelt bag.)</p> <p>What are you carrying? </p>
