I never heard of it before! You are such a great source of information (which is, I should add, potentially very dangerous for my bank account)!

Thanks for finding it for me (if only to look at)! What's a Bonanzle?

Which HH bag were you thinking of, with the double set of handles? Was it the Hudson Satchel? <a href="http://haydenharnett.com/?action=detail&style=HUDSONSBCO&back=/blog/" rel="nofollow">http://haydenharnett.com/?acti.....ack=/blog/</a> Many HH bags frequently pop up on eBay and Bonanzle, so if you are ever in the market for a retired one, you can look there HannahC on "Your killer bag" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-killer-bag#post-74430 Tue, 23 Jun 2009 20:04:26 +0000 HannahC 74430@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Sarah, the first Matt and Nat bag you linked to - wow! It has such an interesting shape, and it somehow doesn't try to be leather, like many non-leather bags. It just exists in its own category. Japanese rice paper, though ... I am wondering - is it durable? What about rain? I forgot to say that I also love to look at Furla bags, especially the soft unstructured ones. This one, for example: <a href="http://us.furla.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/WFS/Furla-FurlaUS-Site/en_US/-/USD/ViewProductDetail-Start?ProductUUID=vroKCgTUBRsAAAEgSCVuXDNW&CatalogCategoryID=Oi0KCgTUzTsAAAEgZL5uXDNP&JumpTo=OfferList" rel="nofollow">http://us.furla.com/is-bin/INT.....=OfferList</a> (in prugna) I suspect, however, that they are really bad for the back - imagine how much stuff you can store in this bag, and how heavy it can become! As far as I know myself, I am sure that, given an opportunity, I will just carry everything I own with me. This is partly why I am trying to stick to medium-sized bags. HannahC on "Your killer bag" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-killer-bag#post-74175 Mon, 22 Jun 2009 17:12:28 +0000 HannahC 74175@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Kyle - that's Birkin, right? It would fit your style so well! Ana, it is indeed outrageous that Angie got your bag! How can you possibly construct your outfits without the required Valentino bag on your arm! Though your second choices aren't half-bad either ... Cciele - in every post I learn something new from you. First it was the Chie Mihara footwear (swoon), and now the Belene Chandia bags (swoon again). Isn't the Hayden-Harnett great for bags? They used to have that bag with two sets of handles that I really wanted (sometimes in the future), but I cannot find it anymore on their website ... Oh well, I didn't plan to buy a bag soon anyway. Jean - so do you actually own this bag? If no, why not? It looks so perfect for you! Sarah - ohh, Kooba! I almost bought a Kooba bag three years ago, when I was looking for a new handbag. I didn't, because, apart from being expensive, they are very very heavy, even with nothing inside. Of course, they are not making that model anymore, but all their bags are quite drool-worthy. The bag you linked to is stunning! Here is another one I really like: <a href="http://www.kooba.com/Rory/pd/c/119/np/119/p/96487.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.kooba.com/Rory/pd/c.....96487.html</a> (of course in berry) Sarah on "Your killer bag" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-killer-bag#post-74167 Mon, 22 Jun 2009 16:09:27 +0000 Sarah 74167@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I'm fairly simple when it comes to bags. I like creative designs and fun colors, but truth be told, I don't switch my bags very often. I really like the concept of Matt and Nat and these ones are definitely on my list: <a href="http://www.mattandnat.com/product/display/750/1/CAMDEN" rel="nofollow">http://www.mattandnat.com/prod.....0/1/CAMDEN</a> (gold) <a href="http://www.mattandnat.com/product/display/626" rel="nofollow">http://www.mattandnat.com/product/display/626</a> (white) I also really love this bag: <a href="http://www.kooba.com/Jacinda__/pd/c/119/np/119/p/96450.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.kooba.com/Jacinda__.....96450.html</a> Chris on "Your killer bag" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-killer-bag#post-74156 Mon, 22 Jun 2009 15:41:52 +0000 Chris 74156@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Here's my new desire: YSL Muse Two in gray patent <a href="http://www.bluefly.com/Yves-Saint-Laurent-road-patent-leather-Muse-Two-top-handle-bag/cat60024/302278901/detail.fly" rel="nofollow">http://www.bluefly.com/Yves-Sa.....detail.fly</a> I love all the bags you have all selected - that Valentino Angie picked is so gorgeous!

I have two other Elaine Turner purses, she's a TX designer with a local store here in Dallas. I'm inspired by pretty bags because even when I'm not up to snuff and running a child centered errand I can still feel chic with a nice bag.

I just recently got into purses. I used to just get hand me downs from my sister. I now realize how important of an accessory they really are to an outfit. HannahC on "Your killer bag" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-killer-bag#post-73972 Sun, 21 Jun 2009 17:58:35 +0000 HannahC 73972@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Angie, the bag you linked to is breathtaking, and is so very you! I can imagine you carrying it with all your outfits. For example, it will look stunning with the dress and cascading cardigan that you wore when out shopping with San ... I am just saying ... I think my blue-gray bag (it is actually more gray than blue) is my favorite wardrobe item ever (taking the notion of wardrobe items loosely - including bags and shoes but not jewelry). I have it for about a year and a half already, and I am carrying it almost every day (I only have three everyday bags, so I don't rotate too often), and I am still in love with it. Angie on "Your killer bag" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-killer-bag#post-73967 Sun, 21 Jun 2009 17:31:43 +0000 Angie 73967@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oh! That’s SO EASY. Here’s my ultimate: <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3054299?Category=&Search=True&SearchType=keywordsearch&keyword=valentino+in+Handbags+%26+Accessories&origin=searchresults" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/30.....rchresults</a> (But I'm pretty proud of my own bag collection too). HannaC, your bag choices are beautiful. And I LOVE your blue bag! KILLER. HannahC on "Your killer bag" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/your-killer-bag#post-73954 Sun, 21 Jun 2009 15:53:07 +0000 HannahC 73954@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ After such a great thread on our dream sandals started by Patience, I thought we can play a similar game about bags: You just won the lottery, so money is no object. Also, all your back problems are miraculously resolved, and you can carry any bag for as long as you want without any discomfort. And, finally, you don't have any bulky items you absolutely must carry every day - no laptops, no files, no baby gear, no lunch - nothing unless you choose to. So you can pack your keys, driving license and lipstick, or, alternatively, the kitchen sink. After you imagine all that, what is your dream bag? Conditions: it must be available now (and please provide a link), and it must be an everyday bag, not an evening bag. If you actually own your dream bag, please post a photo. I start: I actually own my dream bag! Mine is by Gerard Darel, a French company. If you go to their website <a href="http://www.gerarddarel.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.gerarddarel.com/</a> (which I liked much better when Charlotte Ginsbourg was in the ad), mine is in the Saint-Germain category, the first one - "24 hours". The color seems to be unavailable - mine is bluish-gray. Here it is on my arm: <a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/3fo3_F6Tm7keEy86dJ_O9g?authkey=Gv1sRgCNv4p_6wwI23bw&feat=directlink" rel="nofollow">http://picasaweb.google.com/lh.....directlink</a> and here on a chair: <a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/Tm6SvRhD37JlVZ1n0hmYGA?authkey=Gv1sRgCNv4p_6wwI23bw&feat=directlink" rel="nofollow">http://picasaweb.google.com/lh.....directlink</a> (the color is more accurate in the first photo, and it also has a light purplish tint). I usually wear it on my shoulder, except when I am wearing a winter coat, because the straps are not long enough to fit over a coat sleeve. But since our winter-coat-worthy weather is hardly several weeks a year, this is not really an issue. Another bag in the dream category would be also from Gerard Darel company - their Midday-Midnight bag, both in the "24 hours" and in the "36 hours" sizes. Maybe one day ... Your turn.
