haha i know I also think that's a great idea but....
I find myself always self-criticizing when I have to post my pic.... :P

As my pal Shewolfy used to say "God don't let my pic have fat arm"

You know the look you get sometimes when you put a beautiful bag, with a short strap drop, on your shoulder and somehow it makes your arm look like a large ham? LOL

Ms.Lizardo · Nov 12th, 2008, 09:50 PM

But Suzi...what happened to the pic of your Hubby? LOL

Found the pic for old time's sake.

EXACTLY! That is why you will never see a bag on my shoulder. I'm really just a size 0. It's the bags that make me look fat.

- Oh, you are right. I must find that dotted hubby of mine and make you all jealous again.

That was the best picture.

I like this bag Suzi and the color! Have you used it since your TME arrived?

Jenova · Nov 13th, 2008, 01:35 AM

Thanks to everyone for the kind comments they have offered about my bags (and other parts). I will try to restrain myself from adding footnotes from now one.

PS Maybe a short explanation without selfcriticism will do...

.... aaah, how I missed your sweet face....

*suzi* · Nov 13th, 2008, 08:28 AM

^^^^ The albino face with the dark hair is a nice contrast, yes?

Charmed - I have worn my TME every day this month because I just love the soft slouchy matte leather. The Hold Me is still one of my all time favorite bags but I probably won't use it for a while because it is cold here and I think it will look funny with black or brown shoes. I would love a Hold Me in a beautiful color to brighten up the winter.

More modeling pics with pewter Hold Me... I am trying to convince everyone how easy it is to carry this bag... even for non-metallic lovers...
Notice this outfit: plain and casual... the pewter Hold Me adds some edgyness that a black/grey bag wouldnt confer...

mariabdc · Nov 14th, 2008, 04:51 PM

Another dull greyish outfit which benefits from the pewter crash!

mariabdc · Nov 14th, 2008, 04:52 PM

Pewter crash looks great with black as well! (of course!)

*suzi* · Nov 14th, 2008, 05:14 PM

Wow. great shots Maria. I'm betting any bag would look beautiful on you.

chica1 · Nov 14th, 2008, 05:46 PM

That Hold me looks really nice with that outfit! You are workin' it!

Hmmm. The Hold me looks nice in tan also. I love this thread because bags that I would have never considered look great when I see people modeling them.
