Going blue and minty green

I get loads of comments and questions from readers asking me "Exactly how many handbags do you own?" Sometimes specifically "How many Balenciaga bags do you own?". I think I give the impression that I own a lot of Balenciaga bags. Truth is, I own five. They are all in the same style, which is the City because I find this style works with me the best. Does the number five considered to be "alot"? Well, I guess it is all relative, isnt' it? I know many handbag lovers out there own way more than I do. I think the reason why it seems like I have alot of Balenciaga is because they are all in very different colours. Thus every time when I do carry one, it seems like a complete different bag again. Maybe this makes sense?
Anyhow, onto my non Balenciaga bags. My other favourite handbag brand is Rebecca Minkoff. I also own about five of them and I have been loving this brand for quite some times. I have always been a warm tone kind of person. I love red, pink, orange and yellow. So you rarely see me in blue or green. To kick off spring, I thought I would add one of the hottest colours this season: minty green. I scored this bag on Rebecca Minkoff website when they were having the Friends and Family sale. I had been eyeing this bag for a few months and finally took the plunge and bought it at a good price. I hope to start experimenting with the colour green. Do you have a favourite "fail-safe" colour you always go to? And if so, are you brave enough to step outside the box this season?

SWORD leather jacket (old, more options here), Zara scarf, Levi's ID Curve skinny jeans, Sam Edelman booties (here), Rebecca Minkoff mini Hudson bag (beautiful blue option here), Stella and Dot Cheryl earrings (here also in different colour), YSL Arty ring and Lindberg sunglasses.
Happy Monday and thanks so much for reading :)

  8. That is such a cute little bag! Love the green paired with the blue scarf too :)

    I definitely have more bags..it's embarrassing how many I own. need to downsize, but can't bare to part with any of them! haha! Better to have people thinking you own a lot than actually owing a lot - more storage space that way! :P

  16. I think the colour of the bag is beautiful. I don't think five bags/style is too much at all, especially if they are quality bags that you absolutely adore. :)

  21. Sounds like a nice collection for sure! And you are right, there are people who have many more handbags than that (I have over 100 myself), but I would still love to have that amount of Balenciagas, haha! :)
