I am so excited about our latest addition, the red Tory Burch. It is brand new inside and out and comes with a dust bag. Please continue to view the site because bags come and go!

I am also excited about Swap Couture's wonderful members leaving comments on the blog and on Facebook. It is great for members to spread the word about how satisfied they are about our exclusive community. I speak to women daily and we are amazing people. I spoke with an old friend yesterday and she so encouraged me. She does not know it, but she was a true blessing. Thanks Jewel!

Remember, Swap Couture is a resource for you for any questions about designer bags. More importantly, we are a place for you to get a designer bag that is "new to you" for a lot less than retail, so continue to check us out.

Scripture for the day Proverbs 20:7 A righteous man who walks in his integrity- How blessed are his sons after him.

Swap Couture is adding one of my bags to the Couture Collection. It is a red Tory Burch bag that retails for $500. It will be part of our Classic Collection. Stay tuned.

We have a comment on our blog from one of our members! Maria received her bag and left a response. She is a happy member and I love that. Check in out on Monday's comments.

Today I would like to discuss the care of those wonderful bags. There are places you can take your bag to like the cleaners or The Shoe Hospital. From what I was told by the Shoe Hospital, they do not clean the inside of your bag. They do minor repairs and clean the outside, but they stopped cleaning the inside because it caused mold to set in. I have found another place, however, who cleans the inside. Bag Borrow or Steal cleans the inside of your bags. I do not know the cost, but if you want the lining cleaned, they will do it. Unfortunately, ink stains, according to the Shoe Hospital, cannot be removed from leather.

Just some care tips for those wonderful bags. Have a wonderful day!

James 1:5 If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.

Over the weekend I communicated with several women regarding Swap Couture. It is such a pleasure and a blessing to do what I do. I love interacting with other women, especially those who love to talk about bags and how they love them. With all of life's issues, it is good to be able to think and talk about fashion.

As Swap Couture grows our network of women will only grow larger! I am excited and cannot wait. We are getting more women in this exclusive community and we are getting more bags, which will continue to get us more women! Its a great cycle and I am very thankful.

Have a wonderful and blessed day! 🙂

Scripture of the day

O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.

I am so excited about all the great things going on at Swap Couture!

We are growing and changing daily. Please visit the website daily to read the blog for the latest news and see the new bags.

Since we started at the end of March, we have been featured in 2 magazines, Texans Model Magazine and Woman's InSite. You can see both on our Facebook page. Swap Couture has also been featured in a commercial on news radio 92 FM! How exciting is that! I am very grateful.

We now have almost 30 members from all over the country including, Chicago, Atlanta, Princeton, and New York city. It's so good to connect with these women and not only discuss bags, but discuss other important life events. As I told a young lady yesterday, if I can help you get a great bag for less than retail and connect with you as a woman, I think it is a great thing. Again, I am thankful.

Again, Happy Friday !

1Thessalonians 5:16-18 ¹⁶ Rejoice always; ¹⁷ pray without ceasing; ¹⁸ in everything give thanks; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.

I am so excited today! We received a great new bag today and we made it in Woman's InSite magazine!

Kathryn and Cindy of Woman's InSite included Swap Couture in their Top 10 for the month of August. It is a great day.

We received a wonderful Michael Kors bag. See the stars who wore it, Jessica Simpson and Halle Berry. It can be yours with the basic membership of $99.99!

Phillippians 4:13 I can do all things in Christ who

strengthens me.

I am a little late this morning, because I had some early morning appointments.

We processed and approved the Louis Vuitton looping bag. It is a gorgeous bag that is very well maintained. This bag can be yours by joining us at Swap Couture as a member.

This bag retailed for over $1000 and is such a great feminine bag! Join Swap Couture, send us a bag that you no longer carry and this Louis Vuitton looping bag will be yours.

At Swap Couture, it is My Couture for Your Couture!

Psalm 30: 4-5 Sing the praises of the Lord, you his faithful people; praise his holy name.

⁵ For his anger lasts only a moment,but his favor lasts a lifetime; weeping may stay for the night, but rejoicing comes in the morning.

Today we are getting a new bag! Our newest member sent a Louis Vuitton looping bag to Swap Couture. In exchange she is getting the Louis Vuitton Delightful!

Her bag, once received will go thru the approval process, which includes verifying authenticity.

The LV Looping MM is a great bag! First, it has been discontinued, which means whoever swaps for it will have a bag that is no longer being made. This is good because you will have a limited edition bag or a collectors item! There is only a certain amount of this kind of LV out there! Second, if you want a nice size feminine simple bag, this is for you. Lastly, based on the pics, it is in great condition. I cant wait to post actual pics!

This bag retailed for $1030 in stores. Swap for it today!

Thought for the day. Let us walk in love today. No matter how many good deeds we perform or how many charitable organizations we provide for, if we do not have love, we have nothing.

13 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. ² And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. ³ If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned,^[a] but have not love, I gain nothing.

⁴ Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant ⁵ or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful;^{[b] 6} it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. ⁷ Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

⁸ Love never fails. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away.

Lets get this Friday off to a great start!

I would love to know your thoughts on Swap Couture's new look! Please feel free to post.

Today I am featuring the Cream Chloe Paddington bag. It is a great bag to have. Its very soft and roomy, and comes with a lock and key. The Paddington retails from $1200-$3000 and has been around now for over 5 years.

Why pay retail if you do not have to. This nice expensive bag can be yours by becoming an exclusive member of Swap Couture for $399 and giving up a bag that you no longer carry. Its that simple! If you have a bag that retails for $1000 or more, and you really do not carry it, send it in and get this great Cream Chloe Paddington with rose gold hardware!

See the all the pics of the stars who wore the Chloe Paddington.

A thought for the day is Proverbs 10:4 He becomes poor that deals with a slack hand: but the hand of the diligent makes rich. Lets work today diligently whether inside or outside of our homes!

I am so excited about Swap Couture's new look! I would love to know your thoughts. Check out the new pics. We have lots of new, a new look, new membership plans, new bags, and new members. This blog is even new!

Our newest member signed up last night. Her name is Maria and she is from Chicago. I cant wait to see her bag!

We put the finishing touches on the site just a little while ago and the day is winding down. I will be back here bright and early, if the Lord says the same to bring you the latest on bags. Swap Couture's blog is the place for everything you want to know about bags.

Talk with you tomorrow!
