Default The biggest headache ever...but I finally got my Jaune Work

I can't even tell you how much of a pain it has been the past few weeks to get my hands on this bag. She came today and is amazing, but she is not complete. She came with the bag...and thats it. No tags, tassles, cards, or even mirror. I was appauled. So I'm getting the mirror and paper cards and tags sent to me from NY (According to my SA and the store manager, "their stuff gets jumbled up in inventory and they couldn't find it"...I don't even know if these tags go with this bag, but I'm over it. They could have mentioned that before they shipped it though that my bag was going to be incomplete....) and the extra tassles are being sent to me from BalLA (Ps Alex is the BEST SA I've everrrrr dealt with, so sweet and very knowledgeable, and on top of it. I'm definitely doing all of my buying from her or Carrie at BalLA from now on!!) I have spoken with many different sales people at Barneys NY (Sidenote: Not ever dealing with them again, I took their number out of my phone ) and after weeks of getting hung up on, told it wasn't in stock when it was, and having my debit card charged 3 times putting me into -$600 into my account, she is finally here! And she is BEYOND GORGEOUSSSS! It is nighttime here, so I'll take some pictures tomorrow in the daylight.

Ps I'm for SURE sleeping with her tonight I don't think I've ever felt leather this amazing before, it definitely rivals my 05 Black city. I KNOW, RIGHT?! WEIRD!!!! But I'm definitly agreeing with ladies that 07's are right behind if not tied with 05 leathers and colors. She is so silky soft and smooshy, and falls into a droolworthy puddle already, so broken in yet brand new! Can't wait to show you lovely ladies my newest child, FW07 Jaune RH WORK!!!!

Pictures pls! the leather sounds divine, and jaune is such a pretty colour!
Barneys customer service sounds scary though.
