New year - new bags? Before deciding on new acquisitions I should take a look at my collection of 4 years again. Then I will make a new wishlist...
My first designer accessoire: Louis Vuitton Epi Leather Pochette in Black with Gold H/W, bought in Vienna, September 2004
Second piece is the Trotteur in Monogram Canvas, bought in Vienna again for my prom, January 2005
My first decent wallet: from LV again in grey (Ardoise) Taiga leather, February 2006
Here comes my first big luxury bag: Goyard Okinawa PM, bought in the Paris boutique, July 2006
One hour later I went to get this classic: Speedy 35 in Monogram Canvas, bought in the mothership on Champs Elysées Paris, July 2006
One year later I got the Roxbury in Vernis Amarante in the St. Germain store in Paris, July 2007
One month later I got the Small Noé in Toledo Blue, vintage since the color was discontinued some time ago (this baby is 12 years old), Taipei 2007
My most expensive bag was at the right store at the right time for me to buy... A Chanel Reissue 227 in Navy Metallic. I have set my eyes on a Reissue long ago, but back then it was unrealistic for me to get one. Now this one is my crownjewel and only Chanel. Bought in Vienna, January 2008
Next was this French favorite: A Gerard Darel 24h in black. I love the simplicity of it, even though buying wasn't that simple: had to order it from Munich since it was the nearest place to have GD bags. However, the service was great, nice staff @ Ludwig Beck department store! (sorry for the mess in the background), June 2008
When I went on exchange in Singapore I had to carry my notebook computer everyday... which formed a preference for light bags. The sudden rainshowers also affirmed my ideal of a water-resistant bag. However, only when I left Singapore I found my dreamcolor for the Longchamp Le Pliage: an almost neon bright green in Taipei, December 2008
Now looking at all the bags I think I have one for every situation in life - except for some dropdead sophisticated clutch... Most bags I want because of the design itself, not for conveniency anyway. So the next post will list my wishlist for the next decades, unless I win in the lottery sometime soon.
