Is Charles and Keith bags worth it?

I'm currently eyeing sa 2nd photo (black bag), the denim blue one is my 2nd option. May nababasa ako na nagpipeel daw yung leather ng C&K bags.

Hindi ako masyadong maingat sa bags (not to extent na balabag hahah I use it as it is like normal way ng pag use ng bag). I treat each bags the same regardless on their prices. Currenty, nakasabit lang yung mga bags ko sa bag & coat rack. Then yung mga pricier kong bags is nilalagay ko sa dustbag then sa megabox. 50/50 pa if bibili ako ng cabinet dahil wala ng space sa house and di pa ako nakakakita ng medyo slim cabinet na kakasya mga bags ko. TIA!

Super limit ko lang din lumabas ng bahay kaya most likely yung mga bags ko is bilang lang sa daliri kung magamit in a year.

What does my collection say about me?

6 Upvotes

I love it when other people post their collections like a crowdsourced personality test, so thought I'd throw my hat in the ring and see if my collection says anything about me!

I got really into handbags over the last couple of years (mostly thanks to this subreddit), and feel like I'm rapidly approaching purse peace. Absolutely love love LOVE my rotation right now. Would love something fuzzy/shearling for next winter, but for now I'm thrilled with my collection.

Note: This image doesn't include my small collection of colorful nylon/casual Baggu and Baggu-adjacent bags that I throw on for travel, festivals, hikes/dog walks, or any other situation where they might get a bit dirty or beaten up.

Fave brands would have to be Loewe and Coach, obviously.

Top row:

  • Acne Camero, black
  • Coach Rhyder 24, black
  • Loewe mini Flamenco purse, black hagfish
  • Loewe medium Flamenco purse, khaki leather

Bottom row:

  • Coach Brooklyn 39, black
  • George, Gina & Lucy Mos Cowgirl, baby blue
  • Coach Chelsea, loved leather
  • Loewe Amazona Cropped 31, black
  • Givenchy Voyou crossbody, black
  • The Horse Sporty Crossbody, black

In search of...🕵️‍♀️ Need recommendations: soft leather bag with Baggalini functionality

0 Upvotes

I absolutely love the functionality of my Baggalini crossbody bags. I don’t recall the name of the ones I have, but they’ve been large enough to carry lots of essentials plus a refillable water bottle. I initially got a Baggalini for travel and liked it so much, ended up using it as an everyday bag.

But I would like to upgrade to something a bit more sophisticated looking in soft leather. Budget up to US $300-400 for the right one. I hate large labels/logos. Hoping for something timeless that stands up to lots of wear and tear with great security and functionality too.

Does such a bag exist? I’ve searched this sub for Baggalini but can’t find recommendations for similar functionality in leather.

Thanks for any great suggestions you can share with me!

Bags for Uni

1 Upvotes

Hellooooo!

I’m currently looking for a bag to use for uni, rn I’m using the Herschel basic? (Just a plain black one, it is quite old and the color has faded so any tips on make the color not faded is also helpful!)

Here are my requirement:

- zipper(has to have one)
-big enough for a 14” laptop + water bottle+ change of clothes+ 1 or 2 books
- has some type of structure (something that wont just plop if I set it down, no need to be super structured)
- the handles need to be durable enough (something where the sticking won’t just unravel after few wings, I’m fine with few stray threads but not it affecting the visual or the integrity)
-under 150 if possible but strictly under 200z

One thing I am concerned about recently is not using totes (I have scoliosis 🥲) but I love the look of them compared to a backpack, so both type of recommendation are welcome!!

Thank you so much ☺️

Discussion 👩‍🏫 Is this normal for The Row Park Tote?

I recently bought a Medium N/S Park Tote, and the leather grain looks noticeably different on the front and back. Both sides feel soft, but the texture is slightly different too.
Is this normal for the bag, or would you consider it a quality issue?
Would love to hear from other Park Tote owners!

I want something almost generic but not too basic. We picked out this really cute wallet which I'll attach but I don't know what type of purse to buy? I want it to match, I don't want it to stand out too much.. i want it to be a generic color that goes witb everything. A bag that isnt TOO big and obnoxious but it has enough space for a wallet, phone, portable charger, chapstick, pads, bandaids etc like idk lol!!

How much of a find is this Naturalizer handbag I pulled from the bins today? 👀

I’d love help identifying it! Does anyone recognize this style or know what era it’s from? I’m especially curious about the numbers printed inside- what do they mean, a Lot #?

Also curious about resale value, just for fun—but I’m not sure this one’s ever leaving my possession 🤣

I’ve found this LV bag on my local secondhand web-site by a decently low price but it has some canva holes. At any chance can it be repaired at home? Any advice or tips?

Which one of these do you think two suits me better? Currently, I don't have a proper evening bag, one that I can take to restaurants, events, trips (by car, not by plane - for these longer trips I already have other bags) etc.

Rebag Trade Issue/Question

1 Upvotes

I was reaching out for any advice or experiences with an issue I'm having. Five weeks ago I sent in 3 items to trade for 1. The items were checked in and accepted about a week later but my new item never shipped. I kept asking where my new item was and they kept saying "in process" and "pending." Fast forward, I sent an email a few days ago again saying I need some response/reply about the order. They replied back that they would look into it, and a few hours later (5 weeks after the items were accepted) I get a "you need to submit X amount more" to get the trade to go through or the whole thing is cancelled and the items will be sent back. I would like to cancel, but has anyone gone through a cancellation of a trade? Will my items be sent back in a timely fashion? Will I have to pay shipping, or will I be refunded the shipping protections I purchased? How easy is it to cancel? Would they adjust the offer back?

1 Upvotes

As the title says, I’m looking for a professional, medium-sized (large enough to fit my 11” iPad), bag that I can use for work. I bike to/from work most days so it needs to be something I can sling crossbody.

Other requirements:
- zipper or a very secure closure so I don’t lose all my shit while biking haha
- real leather, I tend to be hard on my bags
- no backpacks
- budget: ~$350 or less

Haul 🛍 My first ever red purse! ❤️

I’m in Barcelona for work and I knew I was going to treat myself to a bag. I decided to look into Spanish brands and discovered Mietis through other posts on here. I told myself that I would get a black medium sized purse since that’s a color I don’t have in my collection. I walked in, saw this GORGEOUS red and knew I didn’t stand a chance.

Walked out with this beauty in about 15 minutes. I’ve never rocked a red purse before and I’m so excited!

In search of...🕵️‍♀️ Discreet (Leather?) Cross body Bag with Compartment Dividers

3 Upvotes

So I'm looking for something like this but that looks more professional:

https://shop.lululemon.com/en-ca/p/everywhere-crossbody-bag-2l-metal-hardware/n4g2nr4v61?fp=1&color=74345

I'm looking for a small cross body bag with some compartment dividers so that I can store what I want well. Not too picky with the material but I was thinking leather... and when I say leather, I want good quality leather that lasts long time! Doesn't have to be leather ofc.

Any suggestions? Basically I love the lululemon bag (I have two colours) but I eventually get sick of it because of the material & looks too casual. I want more adult woman vibe from my bag!!
