I have been pondering this bag for a bit...well, actually, more than a bit...

Anyone interested? I consider this a year-round color, BE's signature shade and of course the classic BE handbag style! It goes brilliantly with gold or silver, too.

I am flexible on delivery dates, of course.

Here she is in the mini version, with silver HW:

PS: Just for clarification, this is a sheen leather, which is code for "gorgeous."

I am interested - as long as I can convince DH. I would prefer with silver hardware though, does the hardware have to be the same for everyone in a bespoke?

bonniekir · Jun 1st, 2009, 04:56 PM

-Yes! I would like one later in the year.

gapaholic13 · Jun 1st, 2009, 04:58 PM

Later in the year would be perfect for me too!!

bonniekir · Jun 1st, 2009, 05:12 PM

No, you can choose your own hw , gapaholic13

Loquita, did you check with BE about the leather status??

No, but since it is in BE Couture I assume that we can get it...should I check anyways? I am happy to do so!

Well, if this is going to be a bespoke thread, I think it would be better to check if there's enough leather of this particular shade of colour, because it means at least 8 bags must be ordered. I'm always afraid that it might run out!

No worries! I will check into this now and report back. Also, I asked for a fuchsia swatch last week. I noticed that the fuchsia as pictured on the website leather catalog looks very similar to the pink sheen -- yet in other pics they appear vastly different.

bonniekir · Jun 1st, 2009, 05:41 PM

I noticed this too! So we need the "old" Fuchsia!! And I wonder how much is left of this one????

Okay, so I have already emailed Jackie and Rose about this. Have you noticed too Bonnie that the TMA in fuchsia on the website looks like the "old" fuchsia? I just think that the leather catalog pic is off...that's why I requested the swatch, just in case...

bonniekir · Jun 1st, 2009, 05:48 PM

Could be, but the recent swatch I recieved did not really have the shade of the "old " Fuchsia. I really would like a LM in this leather especially since it shows similarities to the Cobalt.
And this leather is TDF- honestly-whenever I pass it , I must pinch the poor bag!

gapaholic13 · Jun 1st, 2009, 05:53 PM

Well, if there's not enough fuschia, I could easily be conviced to go with purple

The purple glossy? I already have that bag (it was my first BE) and I must say that it is MAGNIFICENT!!! Marvelous...I love it to pieces...if the fuchsia doesn't work out then I would definitely get the purple!!!

Loquita · Jun 1st, 2009, 09:11 PM

Jackie answered me very quickly! Yes, there is enough fuchsia!

Susan Lee · Jun 1st, 2009, 10:53 PM

This will be a gorgeous bag ladies-I hope your bespoke goes through! I would love to join you but I have my heart set on a LM in one of the new pebbled glossies.....
