Default Aubergine MMS Midi - pics soon
I got my beautiful Aubergine Make Me Smile Midi from the Fall 09 collection today!

It is absolutely beautiful! The colour is everything I thought it would be and IRL the bag looks much better than the stock photos on BEs site. The purple is so rich. I'm expecting a Dark Purple Glossy (not pebbled luxe) Adore Me in early October and then I'll post pics to compare the colours.

I will post some pics and modelling shots next week when I'm back from Rotterdam and have batteries for my camera.

I'm going to go stick my nose in this beautiful purple baby and just breath in that divine BE smell!

congrats on the new bag and use her in good health!
BTW, just got an update - my bags from limited leather sale will be produced by 2nd Oct, so although it has been nearly 2 months since i put the order in, hopefully well worth the wait!

Just back from my trip to Rotterdam where I carrie this baby everywhere. It's the first time I've had people stop me and ask me where I got my bag.

The colour is beautiful and the leather is starting to smoosh already. I will post pics when I get a new camera battery. Then I'll post pics next to the Dark Purple Glossy Adore Me if it arrives so that you can get a good comparison of the colours.

The Aubergine suits this style a lot. I like that the bag is so smoochie and soft. A good buy for sure!

OMG...I've dreamed of this bag myself
I love the MMS Midi, and that particular shade of purple and leather texture look amazing in the photos, so if it's even better IRL and can see why you're so happy with it.

KongratZ!!!
