This Week's Obsession: Chasing the Sun? Why Co-Ownership Is Perfect for Seasonal Bags
As the colder months settle in, many of us start planning escapes to sunnier destinations, where our winter wardrobes give way to breezy linen and stylish totes. Seasonal bags, like the Saint Laurent Rive Gauche Tote, are the epitome of vacation chic. They’re perfect for beach getaways or weekend city breaks but often spend most of the year tucked away in storage. That’s where co-ownership comes in.
Why Seasonal Bags and Co-Ownership Are a Perfect Match
Seasonal bags are a luxury—timeless yet rarely used outside their prime season. Owning one outright can feel indulgent, especially when it doesn’t see year-round use. Co-ownership solves this by giving you access to coveted bags during their peak months while freeing you to co-own others suited for different seasons or occasions. Imagine swapping your beach-ready Saint Laurent tote for a structured Chanel classic in the winter or a bold Dior Book Tote for fall. It’s the freedom to build a year-round collection without the year-round expense.
More was founded with exactly this concept in mind: allowing you to enjoy the luxury you love without trade-offs, making designer ownership both affordable and sustainable. Whether it’s the Saint Laurent Rive Gauche Tote for sunny escapes or a sleek leather staple for winter days, co-ownership ensures you always have the right bag for the right moment.
Travelling in Style: Bag Care Tips
Designer bags make the perfect travel companion, but maintaining their pristine condition requires care. Here are some essential tips to ensure your bag travels as stylishly as you do:
1. Protective Storage: Always store your bag in a dust bag or protective case during travel. This prevents scratches, dents, and exposure to dirt or moisture.
2. Avoid Overloading: Resist the temptation to stuff your bag to the brim, as this can strain the seams and handles. Keep only the essentials for your trip.
3. Careful Placement: During transit, avoid placing your bag on the floor or in tight compartments where it might be crushed. Opt for overhead bins or keep it on your lap when possible.
At More, every bag in our collection is maintained to the highest standards, thanks to our concierge service, which ensures cleaning, repairs, and insurance. This means that even if you take your co-owned bag on a whirlwind adventure, you can rest assured it will always be in impeccable condition.
