a handful of years ago baggu worked in real leather and made this large crescent. i’ve been after one forever but they are few and far between. i realized that i don’t even care what the brand is but i absolutely love this style and would prefer to end the hunt and just have it commissioned.

i will provide the nylon strap for you to use but i’m wanting something as close in appearance to the bag linked, using those dimensions listed. i actually have one of their nylon versions i could send in to have traced to help make the pattern as well if it helps!

wanting a softer, pebbled leather (or opened to suggestions) with an inner lining that includes a couple of slip pockets and a zipper pocket. (again i can send in a bag for you to see what the interior is modeled after as well)

would love to find the right fit for the commission and see some work of anyone interested in working with me :) thank you !!!

august 16th-27th up until we went on vacation. those pics coming later 👯💗

how is august almost over already 🫪😖

such a good month of bags for me !!! have been trying to force myself into rotating more.

please drop ur favorite july combo i wanna see 👀💕‼️

a little late this time bc struggling feeling comfortable sharing but pushing myself out of it. i want to be able to continue to share and be involved in the community. these are just thru the 15th 👼💕

as promised here are my comparison pics valar vs baggu. i asked for a couple of swatches to do some research and wanted to share with the class !

malachite - valar’s malachite is like green but her turquoise is very close to baggu malachite - a little brighter and bluer 🪨

pool - the scb is lined in black, i think this is a super close dupe 💦

cobalt- valar’s pulls darker and more purple 🌀

hot pink (valar) vs primrose (baggu) - hot pink is darker and redder 🌺

green apple - the scb is lined in black, i think these are super close but valar’s is a little more yellow (my wife said baggu’s is more blue based) 🍏

i hope this helps some folks ! i know i cant wait to order a pool standard cloud and a malachite (valar version!!) large crescent 😍😍😍

fting my first valar order ! large trippy crescent and scb and collage fruit sleeve and dopp. planning on making a larger post about this and valar color comparisons soon !!! 😍💕

smaller, older apartment with not a lot of closet space and a bunch of pouched bags just sitting in my office corner led to this.

love the way it looks, still out on the functionality. the bags are a bit too tall so the higher up bins don’t lay totally flat and can’t get several things out without removing the bin above, etc.

also not enough room for ccos or picnic blankets. and obviously shoulder bags and crescents and some other things are mostly elsewhere but ! sharing anyway bc i don’t see enough storage inspo. ✨

was at the zoo today (6/21 between 9a-11a) and dropped this very sentimental ring after seeing the sting rays. heard something fall out of my bag around the water fountain at the orangutan exhibit. but we looked and didn’t immediately see something so i wrote it off (stupidly).

realized around 330p when putting rings back on what happened, called and went back to the scene of the drop and nada. if anyone found it or knows other places i should post lmk. it’s not very valuable but it is special to me. 😭 will keeping checking zoo lost and found but because its so big i figured someone picked it up (it’s a size 12). tysm for any help !!! or any pointers !!!

it’s june somehow !!!

pushing myself to go outside despite the rising heat. grateful to work from home but constantly struggling with leaving the house. what works for you guys? any part of your routine that makes you feel more part of the world?

baggu highlights of the last couple of weeks:
- knocked off two long term ISOS for my wife!!! tomato and cobalt !!! (all the cobalt is their spreads 🥹)
- went to the world bird sanctuary and my friend who isn’t into baggu pulled out the laura ashley sunhat ???
- love the marcus movie half off tuesdays we’re always showing up with baggu IN HAND

also would love to see y’alls fave baggus you’ve used so far this month !!! 🫪💕

ft our trip to louisville !!! 💕😇🫪

sorry for the drama but wow i just love large lentil sm 🥹💙

outdoor direct sun vs indoor, cobalt on the left and lapis on the right !

feels so hard to capture the differences in these in pics but lapis is royal blue and cobalt is blurple. they’re both so good ! 💜💙

i love patterns !! 😇

not big on neutrals so marked safe from sage stripe. but i love how garish the star print is and obsessed with the throwback animal print. still holding out on the pipe dream of turtle laptop sleeve coming from somewhere bc i love him.

what’s on your list?

some things sticking with me and some things didn’t hit but 💕

is there interest in where stuff came from or is that annoying or is all of this annoying or
