Maria - you just can't say that - I have a red hot mad big bag buying fixation of monstrous proportions!

Farewell - I must go out into the 'real' world soon.

Thanks - it looks pretty secure to me.

Had my bath but my face does not want to be reattached.

mariabdc · Nov 15th, 2008, 05:08 AM

You'd better stay home logged in here all day, then!

It is secure, but there's room for a hand to delve in...

For me, this is my most practical bag due to design and sturdiness... and the colour makes her perfect!

Jenova,

You are so silly!! I rarely laugh out loud when I'm reading posts (mostly because I'm tortured thinking about what I "need" to buy next before this or that style/leather is sold out, etc.), but...jenova, you really make me laugh, you silly girl.

btw, miss jenova, the reason I wanted to see modeling pics of your plum crash bag is I haven't been able to find other pics that sway me, and your pics were excellent. Do you ever wear your pewter hug me messenger-style?

Glad to hear that I am frivolous enough for you!

To be serious, I would never wear my Hug Me messenger style. I tried it and found it to be too bulgy a shape to sit happily on me that way. I think I need a flat bag that wraps round the hip/thigh for a messenger.

Maybe think of the Hug Me as like a fat cuddly little lapdog. You can hug it under your arm or carry it by its lead(s) but it would look horrid (and be unhappy) if you slung it round your hip.

Jenova - you cracked me up comparing the Hug Me to a "fat cuddly little lapdog". I too have been considering this bag and wondered about messenger style. Your comparison made it very clear

.

By the way I loooove your cat. I just want to smoosh his/her face.

I am afraid that Cloud might bite you if you did. When he looks cutest and most cuddly, he is most likely to be plotting something. Facial caresses are frequently punished. He finds them as distastful as brushing and tail twiddling.

Can you share your pewter crash pics with us in this thread? Some of you have recently received gorgeous bags with this leather!

mk78 · Jan 2nd, 2009, 04:04 PM

I don't have one 'yet'!! But after seeing erica's pics of her pewter crash hug me and seeing pics of Jenova's flying about somewhere in the forum I am starting to want or rather 'need' this colour leather in something!!

mariabdc · Jan 2nd, 2009, 04:06 PM

Not to enable you or anything, but this leather is amazing... The metallic effect wears off a bit after a while... This is the only metallic i could ever do...
