Default and I also recieved these two Maxis..
I got myself some Hold me maxis ..also from the limited leather sale.

The first two arrived with the Rock Me.

I think they're just wonderful..and I had some hesitations with the Pony I must admit!!

The two are made out of the Pony Skins..the Black/Silver and the White/Silver/ Brown.

The latter is cut superbly..the panels match just perfectl. Great job!!!

I also got an outer zippered pocket and the inner zip pocket is made larger and deeper than on the Clementine maxi Hold me.

The inner leather handle lining and the base is in Black pebbled and Bone Matte .

The bottom is not as soft as the Clementine , but I think it is because of the thicker leather.

I'm also in love with these two

Bonnie,

Enjoy your bags!

You just helped inspire me to finalize my decision on the purple HM. Let's rock what we love, together!

Your new maxis are stunning, bonnie!...
Could you get your future daughters in law to model them (without stealing them away from you)??? Thanks!

Oh WOW .. those look really cool! I wasn't sure about Pony leather ... but your bags are so unique looking. I really love the look. Congrats!

Which is your favourite? I really like the brown as well .. the pattern is really cool!

These look so cool! I normally don't like this type of leather, but it works very nicely here!
