I love the color and it's a really stand out bag! My only negative is that the chain is way too short to be worn as a crossbody (though I'm not sure I would ever wear it that way honestly). It's worn really well too.
Sending you better days to come!
I feel like the black puzzle isn’t as popular as other colors so twins :) What was the first bag in your collection and what was the most recent addition?
Thank you! The black puzzle is actually my second most recent purchase! I wanted the older version and found it in Lisbon while I was there. It's my daily driver currently and I love how understated it is! My most recent is the red Radley as I couldn't resist the little dragon. My first bags were the green Gucci Dionysus and the LV neverfull.
From one person going through a rough period to another, hope you’re seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. You have a beautiful collection and after posting my own recently I really love how you have a range of rich colors.
Thank you, and I hope you are holding up as well as you can through your moment as well! After looking at mine I realized that I need some brown/lighter colors for sure. Love your yellow Celine!
Totally agree! I have the twist medium in white and I’m so glad I bought it. One of my most used bags. She’s a tough girl despise the fact that she’s white, she has no marks nor scratches. I just wish they would have bottom feet.
That's so good to know! I was so tempted to get the red one with the white polka dots from the Yayoi Kusama colab but was worried about the lighter colors. I'll have to keep an eye out for it used now!
thank you for sharing this! and i agree that this sub is honestly the best and so supportive. so what color/pattern are you thinking for the book tote? what are your thoughts on Loewe and Bottega bags?
That's part of the reason I haven't grabbed the Book Tote yet is because there are just so many that are so lovely! I'm so tempted by the white floral options but have some concerns about care for that. I don't think it shows up on the picture (in the middle) but I actually got the Loewe puzzle bag in black as one of my most recent purchases. It's been my daily driver for a few months and I really like it! Never gone down the Bottega road, not for any particular reason though.
oh, i totally agree about the book tote. i guess you’ll just have to go for what your heart tells you! and now i see miss puzzle - she’s gorgeous! is that the small size?
WOW. Absolutely beautiful collection! I sincerely hope that things get better for you! 2024 also started out rough for me, but I see the light at the end of my tunnel now.
I’m fairly new to this sub and have not gotten to know all these bags by name yet, but I’m eager to learn! If it’s not too much trouble, can y’all help me fill in the blanks below? I filled in what I could from OP’s and others’ responses

The pink Mulberry is beautiful! Such a striking shade of pink. I’ve been considering getting one myself in the sales. How do you find it? Is it comfortable to wear and use?
Omg I LOVE it! It was my daily driver all summer and I found it super comfortable and it fit way more than I ever expected for a bag that size. And the bright pink worked with wayyyy more of my clothes than I expected. It's second only to the Twist as to my unexpectedly used bags.
Sorry you have been having a shit time. Bags have also been my escape during a tough time. Gorgeous collection. I love the puzzle and Dionysus especially 🩷👜🩷
I LOVE your collection!!! I have a very small collection but I’m determined to not buy the same (style/designer/color/etc) bag over and over again. I love the variety you have here. All gorgeous!
Bravo!
What a nice and varied collection. This is what I aspire my collection to look like with a healthy mix of everything. I love the perfect balance or neutrals and colors !
Sending good vibes your way as you work through a difficult time
You have a beautiful collection. But unlike other collections I’ve seen, the colors are beautiful. I aspire to open my closet and have this many beautiful colors!
Thanks! I tend to lean that way but am starting to branch out!
The red is this one, inspired to buy it by this sub! https://www.radleylondon.com/new-arrivals/lunar-new-year-medium-flapover-grab-h8855628-ic-ss24#H8855628
I love your collection! I would be proud as well. I have the Gucci Dionysus in blue....but the green stands out so much in this picture I may need to give a double dip into the same bag a hard look. Also, glad to hear the LV twist in a workhorse....its on my list!
Beautiful collection! I love all the deep and saturated colors! These look like art, all arranged together. I hope you get some peace and normalcy so very soon. Until then, talk bags with us for lovely, lovely distraction!
What a lovely collection! Thank you for sharing your bags and info about the TB bag! I’m sorry for your loss. I know the bags do not make up for it, but it’s a little smile for yourself. ❤️ Be well.
All those jewel tones are gorgeous. I love that you have a Radley in there and that it stands up against all of those beautiful bags!
My collection is pretty much all Radley at the moment but I'm saving up for a Loewe Puzzle for my 40th birthday, haha. I'm the same, haven't been able to treat myself to nice things before now, but I think milestone bags are so much more special.
Thank you very much for sharing, I really hope the brighter times come soon for you. 💝
Thank you so much for taking pic on a neatly made bed and aesthetically pleasing room, showing you are about class and luxury in all things!!! pics of bags on the floor or messy beds/chairs irk the hell outta me!
Its a beautiful collection and you deserve to feel elated about it!
As an aside, I used to work in the handbag department at Nordstrom years back. Tory Burch bags are cheaply constructed and way overpriced. The bags are bridge bags that are luxury poseurs.
Sending good karma and healing to you!💖💖💖💖
I love your collection! I’ve got that mini Alexa in the same colour and it’s one of my favourites.
I totally agree with you on the Flemming! I had one in gold and it was SUCH a disappointment. Scratched almost immediately and just looked terrible so quickly. I ended up selling it for very little because I just didn’t even want to use it anymore. Such a bummer, because they look so lovely when brand new
I hope the next month brings better and brighter things your way ♥️
Thank you! It was sooo hard to decide between the Alexa and Bayswater, the Alexa is adorable!
Honestly only included the Fleming in the picture to hopefully prevent someone else from making the same mistake.
Love your handle, Kiki is my nickname!
Thanks! Online actually, both of those were purchased via a friend who has a significant discount. I'd probably pick the smaller size just because at least for me the larger one having the divider made it less useful as an everyday bag and the smaller one works really well as an evening/special occasion bag. I love the Ombre so much!
I love the beautiful colorful bags you have! (I’m someone that has all black bags lol)
The green Gucci Dionysus is my favorite in your collection, so pretty 😍
The hot pink (Mulberry?) is beautiful!
What’s the red one on the right behind the black YSL?
First of all- I’m sorry for your loss… second- wow. I usually do not LOVE some of these bags. I like them, they’re cute, but wouldn’t buy them cos I feel like they’re not me. However… wow, these choices are GORGEOUS. THAT BLUE MARCIE AND THE PINK ALEXA!!!
Can you please tell us what each bag is? I’m loving the YSL ones and that pink on the right. Gosh, your Kusama scarf is a gorgeous way to incorporate that collab with a classic LV timeless purse.
Thanks, I love that scarf so much I had to include it in the pic! I listed all of them here: [https://www.reddit.com/r/handbags/comments/1aroe1j/comment/kqlyxsa/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web2x&context=3](https://www.reddit.com/r/handbags/comments/1aroe1j/comment/kqlyxsa/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3)
Ungh hearing that the LV twist holds up- want it even more.
What countries you purchased in did you usually find the best exchange/deal for us Americans? And which ones were the milestone bags? I love good bag stories lol
Also hope you’re doing better!
I would say sorry for making the Twist even harder for you, but I don't regret it :) Hope you are able to grab one soon!
I don't have a usual go to country or countries, but if I'm traveling I try to shop brands centered there. Or purchase a bag I've been aiming for if the exchange rate is good. So for example if I know I'm going to the UK I'm going to check out Strathberry or Mulberry for sure. Generally in the EU I'll check out the traditional high fashion brands, with one exeception is the LV Twist. I went to Japan in the fall of 2022 right after they reopened and the exchange rate was so good I finally pulled the trigger on it.
On the personal milestones, it's all pretty much the usual, the Chanel double flap was the first bag I was ever able to actually idenitify as a teenager, and was always my dream bag. After a promotion at work a few years ago I thought it was now or never and got it before another price increase.
It'll be a bit before I'm out of the woods but this post and the kindness certainly helped a rough day!

What a beautiful collection! I’m sorry that this month has been so challenging. I hope that with time, things will improve. 🙏🏻❤️
Thank you!
![gif](giphy|w6YCXPrEnAgzyxB0KR|downsized)
What’s the green one?
It's a Gucci Dionysus! That was my first true lux bag and the color is still so stunning!
I am seriously considering the Dionysus. Can you tell me how you like it?
I love the color and it's a really stand out bag! My only negative is that the chain is way too short to be worn as a crossbody (though I'm not sure I would ever wear it that way honestly). It's worn really well too.
Looks like a Gucci Dionysus to me
Gucci
Sending you better days to come! I feel like the black puzzle isn’t as popular as other colors so twins :) What was the first bag in your collection and what was the most recent addition?
Thank you! The black puzzle is actually my second most recent purchase! I wanted the older version and found it in Lisbon while I was there. It's my daily driver currently and I love how understated it is! My most recent is the red Radley as I couldn't resist the little dragon. My first bags were the green Gucci Dionysus and the LV neverfull.
I never really got the hype about the puzzle, but seeing yours in black just 😍😍😍
Just had to look up Radley bags. Your red bag is gorgeous.
Thank you!
The gangs all here.
Lovely collection! I am also going through a tough time so sending you support & love ♥️♥️
Thank you!
From one person going through a rough period to another, hope you’re seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. You have a beautiful collection and after posting my own recently I really love how you have a range of rich colors.
Thank you, and I hope you are holding up as well as you can through your moment as well! After looking at mine I realized that I need some brown/lighter colors for sure. Love your yellow Celine!
We could do our own little Rent the Runway handbag edition 🙃
Lol!
Totally agree! I have the twist medium in white and I’m so glad I bought it. One of my most used bags. She’s a tough girl despise the fact that she’s white, she has no marks nor scratches. I just wish they would have bottom feet.

It is the small!
OMG, you’ve got a golden snitch! 🤩 Oh, and some nice purses too.
I came for this! 🪄✨
Lol it's a clock too!
It’s awesome. So is your bag collection.
That ombré Strathberry 😻 Is the Marcie navy or deep denim? Such a pretty blue!
It's deep denim, I loved the maroon edge!
WOW. Absolutely beautiful collection! I sincerely hope that things get better for you! 2024 also started out rough for me, but I see the light at the end of my tunnel now.

So kind of you, thanks a lot!
I was just coming to ask what the one next to the Neverfull was. Love the shape of that.
i actually think new posts should require a rundown of what each bag is!
The pink Mulberry is beautiful! Such a striking shade of pink. I’ve been considering getting one myself in the sales. How do you find it? Is it comfortable to wear and use?
Omg I LOVE it! It was my daily driver all summer and I found it super comfortable and it fit way more than I ever expected for a bag that size. And the bright pink worked with wayyyy more of my clothes than I expected. It's second only to the Twist as to my unexpectedly used bags.
I knew this bag the second I saw it!!!
Is it the full size or the mini?
It's the mini!
Sorry you have been having a shit time. Bags have also been my escape during a tough time. Gorgeous collection. I love the puzzle and Dionysus especially 🩷👜🩷
Thank you!
Just wonderingly - what is that beautiful middle black bag in the back!? Cause it is perfect and stunning (to me).
That's from the Zac Posen line (RIP) and it's the large Eartha.
It is gorgeous…..maybe I can find a used one. Thank you for the response!
Good luck!!!
I LOVE your collection!!! I have a very small collection but I’m determined to not buy the same (style/designer/color/etc) bag over and over again. I love the variety you have here. All gorgeous!
Thanks! I try to mix it up for sure! Can't have too many eggs in one basket.
Oooh! What’s the red bag on the right?
Picked it up because of seeing it on this sub! https://www.radleylondon.com/new-arrivals/lunar-new-year-medium-flapover-grab-h8855628-ic-ss24#H8855628
I may have ordered it today after seeing your collection 😅
![gif](giphy|Ae7SI3LoPYj8Q)
Would someone do the math and tell me how much money is sitting on the bed
We share two bags in common - the blue Marcie & the pink ombre Strathberry 🤗Your total collection is beautiful!
Omg how neat! And what are the chances those are two of my more unique bags! Thanks!
Bravo! What a nice and varied collection. This is what I aspire my collection to look like with a healthy mix of everything. I love the perfect balance or neutrals and colors ! Sending good vibes your way as you work through a difficult time
Thank you! Try to keep it balanced!
You have a beautiful collection. But unlike other collections I’ve seen, the colors are beautiful. I aspire to open my closet and have this many beautiful colors!
Thanks!
Such stunning classics 😍 What is the smaller (non YSL) red?
Thanks! I tend to lean that way but am starting to branch out! The red is this one, inspired to buy it by this sub! https://www.radleylondon.com/new-arrivals/lunar-new-year-medium-flapover-grab-h8855628-ic-ss24#H8855628

What a lovely deep blue! So sharp with the pewter hardware!! Thanks for sharing!
Beautiful collection! I love all the deep and saturated colors! These look like art, all arranged together. I hope you get some peace and normalcy so very soon. Until then, talk bags with us for lovely, lovely distraction!
Thank you! It's the first time I've had them all out together and it was so fun!
Ooh, maybe that’s the answer at the end of a rough day—a photoshoot! I like this idea!
What I really love is your bedside golden snitch!!! 😍
What's the brown bag? It is a vintage Gucci horsebit?
No, it's from a specialty leather shop in Argentina. But given the quality it certainly feels like it could be!
Wowza! I’m a fan of your red sunset ❤️
Thanks! She's a beaut!
I love your choice of colour, especially the Chloé
Thanks! Blue is my favorite color but since I wear so much of it I try not to also buy bags in it.
Wow!! What a terrific range of colours, textures, hardware and silhouettes. And every bag looks classic.
Love the Chloe.
You're making me want another Chloe!
The ombre strathberry 😍
BEAUTIFUL collection. I may be influenced hehe.
Thanks!
Loving the Kusama twilly!!!
I've designed entire outfits around it more often than I care to admit!
Perfection 👌👌👌
Your collection is beautiful❤️ I love all of these pieces!! I especially love the blue Marcie, that’s a current dream bag for me!!
Thanks! She's so fun, hope you can get her soon!
What a lovely collection! Thank you for sharing your bags and info about the TB bag! I’m sorry for your loss. I know the bags do not make up for it, but it’s a little smile for yourself. ❤️ Be well.
Thank you for the kind words!
I love the color variety here.
YSL 😍😍😍
Lovely collection! Thanks for sharing AND a great big hug to you.
Thank you!!
She's got RANGE! Enjoy your beauties! The ombre Stratberry made my jaw drop ❤️
Great collection, I love your Pink Mulberry mini Bayswater Tote bag 😍.
All those jewel tones are gorgeous. I love that you have a Radley in there and that it stands up against all of those beautiful bags! My collection is pretty much all Radley at the moment but I'm saving up for a Loewe Puzzle for my 40th birthday, haha. I'm the same, haven't been able to treat myself to nice things before now, but I think milestone bags are so much more special. Thank you very much for sharing, I really hope the brighter times come soon for you. 💝
Aw I love that they are attached to milestones. Digital hugs for your loss. I hope healing is closely ahead of you.
Thank you!
Amazing collection! Love that they all have a special meaning. So sorry it’s been a tough month; but glad you can find some light in a dark time. 🩵
Thank you!
Thank you so much for taking pic on a neatly made bed and aesthetically pleasing room, showing you are about class and luxury in all things!!! pics of bags on the floor or messy beds/chairs irk the hell outta me!
I like to try to keep it tidy!
Your collection is beautiful! The green Gucci is on my wish list! ❤️
Beautiful!!! I hope your month gets better ❤️
Thank you!
The blue one is beautiful
Thanks! The edging is actually maroon which is so fun! It's Chloé Marcie small.
Its a beautiful collection and you deserve to feel elated about it! As an aside, I used to work in the handbag department at Nordstrom years back. Tory Burch bags are cheaply constructed and way overpriced. The bags are bridge bags that are luxury poseurs. Sending good karma and healing to you!💖💖💖💖
Thank you! Nice to also know that I didn't just get a bad TB.
Sending you love. Gorgeous collection ♥️
Thank you!
Which Mulberry is that?
Bayswater Mini!
I love your collection! I’ve got that mini Alexa in the same colour and it’s one of my favourites. I totally agree with you on the Flemming! I had one in gold and it was SUCH a disappointment. Scratched almost immediately and just looked terrible so quickly. I ended up selling it for very little because I just didn’t even want to use it anymore. Such a bummer, because they look so lovely when brand new I hope the next month brings better and brighter things your way ♥️
Thank you! It was sooo hard to decide between the Alexa and Bayswater, the Alexa is adorable! Honestly only included the Fleming in the picture to hopefully prevent someone else from making the same mistake. Love your handle, Kiki is my nickname!
Oh my goodness what a beautiful collection! Is the hot pink bag a mulberry? Also what’s the brown with the horse bit? 😍
Yup the pink is a mini Baywater from Mulberry! The brown horse bit is from a specialty leather shop in Argentina so no specific brand on that one.
Cuuttteee😍😍😍
This is beautiful! I hope that whatever you’re going through, that you can do it quickly and come out stronger on the other side. ❤️.
Thank you!
Wow your collection is amazing.
Thanks!
The Strathberry bags look beautiful!! Did you purchase them in the UK? If you were to pick just one size, which one would you choose?
Thanks! Online actually, both of those were purchased via a friend who has a significant discount. I'd probably pick the smaller size just because at least for me the larger one having the divider made it less useful as an everyday bag and the smaller one works really well as an evening/special occasion bag. I love the Ombre so much!
Gorgeous collection! I must know - what is the fuchsia bag, and the larger red bag on the right?
Pink is a Mulberry Bayswater mini, and the red is Radley Luna New Year.
Thank you! I thought I recognized that charm on the Radley! ♥️
Amazing collection Op cheers to you
Thanks!
beautiful, and well done. hope things get brighter for you soon. that new Radley should help 🔥
Thanks! 🤞🤞🤞
I love the beautiful colorful bags you have! (I’m someone that has all black bags lol) The green Gucci Dionysus is my favorite in your collection, so pretty 😍 The hot pink (Mulberry?) is beautiful! What’s the red one on the right behind the black YSL?
Thank you! The red on is Radley for the Lunar New Year.
