What’s in my bag. Long due post, you may think. Those who know me, may remember how I feel about bags. Bags do not let you down – most times – and they can be a really good investment if you treat them well in time. After all, unlike shoes, they never grow small, they normally don’t hurt and they can be timeless if you choose them with style.
You also may know I am (hey, no pun intended) a big fan of replica rolex sky dweller mens rolex calibre 9015 mingzhu engine 326138 15mm automatic in store small bags – not obnoxiously small, OK, but on the small side – and quite large ones alike – not luggage-like, OK, but rather medium-to-large ones. No in between for me 🙂
Needless to say that when I buy a bag I go all in – I believe in quality over quantity for bags: I’ve never really owned more than 4-5 large and 3-4 small one that I really like and use. And some I’ve owned and loved for decades.
But as interpreting takes me all over Europe – not everywhere, OK, but I still travel a lot – I normally choose bags that can double up for leisure and work. Which means that I don’t have different bags (or clothes, you name it) for play or business: I just wear and use what I like because these two dimensions easily overlap – they make me who I am, no compromises,… and also make my life easier as a result. Deal!
‘Cut the chase Val’ – I hear you say. Right, I know you’re impatient! I’m getting there…
This means I normally stuff my bags with many – way too many – things. And liking handles over straps or cross body pieces, that arm candy is heavy. Oh yeah! I just want to have everything handy and this comes at a cost: things galore à la Mary Poppins in the https://www.opm-store.com/product/smoktech-minione-1600-puffs-disposable-cola-ice designer bag du jour.
