Hello all,
Well my sweet dusty pink Sachi purse that DP gave me a few years ago has had it's days as the zipper has broken & now the inside has split & i'm loosing coins within the lining :rolleyes: ... so now has come the time for a new one !!!
I'm thinking to get a bright coloured one or a nice shade of purple ... maybe a metallic shiny look :dance:
Which got me thinking does most BB ladies here have a Black purse/wallet OR a different colour ??? :think:
Please do share & tell ....
xoxoxox
I just bought a new Guess one. It's a pink/purple colour and is bigger than their usual ones with double the amount of card space and pockets. I love it!!
Mine is yellow!
Mine is red.
A lovely grassy green colour, with flowers embossed on it... I LOVE it!
Mine is a black quilted number.
Red. Love it.
mine is red and I also have a black one that my brother brought back when he went OS...
there are some lovely ones out there atm... I was eyeing off one that was patchwork ( well kinda ) and they come in every colour under the sun but I liked the green one....
One purse?
I have either a card wallet (lime green leather) with a big funky bright blue purse, small black purse or small black purse with embroidered flowers on...
OR
I have a money-and-cards purse that's a dusty pink, a nice tan, lilac or dark grey.
I am using the black purse with sequins on and the lime green card holder atm, but the dusky pink purse is on the dining table which means I must have only swapped in the last week or so.
I also have many, many handbags which I alternate.
I've had lots of colours over my lifetime but at the moment I have a chocolate brown Country Road purse. I only buy leather now. And I'm VERY fussy about the quality of the zips! I spent ages choosing this purse and decided to go with it because of its METAL zip. Tip: steer away from purses with plastic zips... they don't last.... and there is nothing more infuriating when they bust... you are usually on holidays/just had a baby/ or otherwise at a hard time/place to buy a new one when it goes!
Rosehip ... i don't think i have enough ' money ' to spread around in that many purses/wallets, ... unless i pop a few coins in each, LOL ;)
(Bath, yeh me too ... i only get with a metal zipper ... Can force more coins in without bursting out, LOL !!!)
LOL, half were gifts and I buy maybe one every two years. Same with handbags - I think I have only bought 2-3 of my stash. Over many years. Some of these I had before I met DH!
And I transfer all the money and cards over from one purse to another! Much as I'd love to keep multi-stocked purses I couldn't afford that either.
Mine's white. I also really really love mine. :D
Rosehip sounds like you have a fetish with purses & handbags in the way i do with calf length & also knee-hi ' Boots ' ... i can't get enough of 'em :dance:
Mine is silver and a bit sparkly without being OTT.
I dont like your stock standard boring black wallet, my last few have been either pink, sparkly or zebra print! :lol: (I only had ONE that was zebra print!!)
mine is green very pretty!!
its a colorado one
=) mine is black and is made from Hemp with a leaf on the side. I love it, I got it overseas last year, and think its the one have had for the longest (yes a year) which is surprising with out much beer has been spilt all over it =D
Ooh, a Chanel Chlo?:
I used to have a red Oroton, now I have a cream Gucci. Surprisingly, it doesn't get dirty at all, I'm very careful with it though.
Mine is dark green.
I bought it on my birthday which was also the day my baby had emergency surgery at 3 weeks old. We left the hospital while he was in surgery and went shopping to try and keep our minds of him. I dread having to upgrade as it has sentimental value
I carry a little coin purse that is red with big white polka dots.
My purse is red with a French clasp. I much prefer a clasp over a zipper.
And my "everyday" handbag is a red Oroton tote. Red is my favourite colour.
:( I have a boring tan one ... billabong .. with WAY to little space for me and my love for plastic cards. (credit, membershipcards, vouchers) Not that I love using them, just feel so grown-up with all them peeking at me when I open the wallet :lol: But DH picked it, so I'll use it till it breaks and get myself a HUGE one after that!!
I am thinking about getting a HUUUUGEEEEEE shocking pink one ... or lime green ... or sea-blue ... or firecraker red ... EEEEEEEEKKKKKK
*running to go open and close that darn metal zip till it breaks - wish me luck* ;)
Mine is boring tan. But I love it, it is only small but has HEAPS of room. You can fit a heaps of cards in it, and has two separate coin compartments and two cash compartments....and it was only $5 from an op-shop. I use it way more than my $120 jag wallet, LOL.
Nadine ... me just think i heard a zipper break ... crrrrrr ...there it goes again :ROFL: ... I saw in Myers yesterday a Guess one in watermelon you might like (it's bright) ??? and also a really bright green ... Myer have 30% off purses (though not much left in the Ballarat's small Myers) :dance:
Marls ... Mine too cost $5, thankfully DP's work had a massive brands sale & he picked it for me ;) Reminds me the best sunnies i ever had were $1 my local Op shop:dance:
Darn thing is stubborn that crrrr you heard were probably my fingernails breaking :lol:
ohhhh watermelon .. now I'm might just go purse hunting this avro ...
I got a Annapelle one for xmas - green and cream, not a colour (green) i would normally go for, but i love it.
If you want something bright, ive always found Olga Berg brand to be fairly bright.
Mine is red leather - it is unusual as it has a woven effect on one side. It zips all the way around so nothing can ever fall out - it is lovely I bought it at a boutique and I haven't seen any others around.
I have a red leather barrel bag that I bought at the same time as said purse - it's easy and always looks nice. I can sling it over my shoulder diagonally so it doesn't slip off my shoulder - I find it irritating when they slip off...
I also have a black fossil satchel type that I love also - I alternate between the two...
A Green wallet is said to be good feng shui for attracting money.... ;)
I used to have a gorgeous pink JAG one, but it wore out and I desperately wanted to get another one the same, but I couldn't fine one anywhere so had to settle for a red jag one, but I love it just as much as the pink one.
i have 4 black wallets a green one and atm im using a dusty pink one with butterfly's
For the last few years I've had a red one embossed with butterflies, bettles etc. LOVED it. But it died a few months ago and I got sick of diving for coins in my handbag.
So I went to DJs a few weeks ago and used an old gift voucher from work to buy a new one - it's an Olga Berg, brown with embroidered flowers on the front. Don't love it as much as my last one but it is a lot bigger and the coin section is at the back on the outside so I'm not forever having to open the whole thing up to get to my money which I love.
Dark tan Jag purse here. Tend to go for internal layout, took me ages to find one that I was happy with. I do look at the more colourful ones now, but really struggle to find one that I would be practical for me.
Mine is red... I had a red handbag at the time it was given to me and even though I now use a blue handbag more I still love my red purse
I do the same as Astrid: look for internal layout as a priority... then the quality of the fasteners... then the colour etc. I have no loyalty to brand. Colorado makes good quality things though... didn't know they made purses/wallets I shoud check them out. French clasps sound interesting... I might Google that too. I have also heard that about green wallets/purses too Deb: good Feng Shui. I used to have a green wallet... but I left it on a bus! Chock a block with money... so that wasn't very lucky though!!! :wall: For ages after that I didn't carry around my cards unless I needed them each day (it was soooo arduous replacing and cancelling them all)... but slowly over the years I have gone back to having a fully stocked wallet.
I have had a burgundy oroton one (got stolen when my handbag was stolen...grr), then a green colorado one which lasted ages, then a brown rip curl one which is still good but not enough pockets in it. Hubby bought me a pinkone just recently which is awesome, heaps of slots and big coin area.
Red Jag wallet here. I must like them it's my second one in a row....Darcy chewed the last one to death
Dark purple Jag one. My MIL gave it to me.
I heard that green wallets attract money
Teal Colorado Leather one here. It has heaps of card space, an extra press stud for when I over fill it and a metal zipper for the coin part. I have had it for ages too. The plastic on one od the windows is starting to go now but that is fine, can still use it with that unstuck and I reckon I could stick it back down if I really needed too, but there are too many cards pushing it out.
Mine is dark red...
Need a new one though.
Mine is a deep/blood red colour, my aunt brought it back from overseas for my 21st. Needing a new one though. Can anyone PM the guess website address cause I can't seem to find it on google!!
Basic black with a deep pinky red lining.
