Holy Frijole! Your black crash LM Midi rocks! I love it! and the black crash AP? Brilliant! I have a choco crash AP and I adore it. That clementine leather is so gorgeous with the gold hardware! I love everything you got.

You really need to send that AP photo to Jackie. I bet it would end up on her website!

Loquita, firstly the bag is gorgeous! congrats!

also, in reply to this post i have a Love me midi in Aubergine sheen w 2 zips. it has the same shoulder straps as Loquita's (so thinner than normal LM), and it does stay on my shoulder! its comfy too...

Gorgeous pictures as always, Lo!

ITA on the Eau de BE. I am addicted to the smell of leather!

I can't help noticing that your red (?) AP has a contrasting zipper track?

Wow, stunning bag!

I heard that there is a newer black crash that's softer than the older version. The leather on your bag is quite supple, so I wonder if it's a newer leather.

msterling · Aug 18th, 2009, 06:33 PM

Congrats, Loquita!

I also love Black Crash. I have the TME Midi and I've used that bag more than any other BE bag that I own. Your bag is gorgeous! I hope you use it a lot and keep it for a long time.

I agree with citychris that this Black Crash looks different - less texture than the Black Crash bags that many of us own.

I also love the shot of your AP collection. The Black Crash AP looks amazing!

CityChris - I was thinking the same thing. It looks different than my black crash.

Lo - I love your new bag. It is very rocker chic.

Now I'm tempted to switch out my black crash TME for a bag like yours with shorter handles.

And I am sorry that this pics seem so small...I posted the same size as usual...hmmmm....

Yeah, forget about my comment about the photo size. On my phone they are nice and big. I had first looked at your thread at work and could only see smaller thumbnails. Half the time at work I can't see ANY pictures! It's so annoying sometimes. It's like they want to force you to work

Now that I can see your photos as they were supposed to be seen, I can say things are even MORE gorgeous! :)

My gosh, I can't find I BE that dosen't make my heart stop!!! GORGEOUS!!!
I am one that can REALLY appreciate the "rocker chic" quality. My style is kinda punk-chic so I can appreciate this bag ALOT!!! I could totally see it with some well placed silver studs (just a few in the right spots!)

Love it...the second zipper seems like a no-brainer to me!!! GORGEOUS!!!

I'm living thru you all til' I take the plunge into my 1st BE bag!!! I'm gonna hold out for a YUMMY PURPLE!!!

asbb · Aug 19th, 2009, 01:35 AM

This is a lovely bag! I think the LMMidi is my favorite BE, and the 2 zips makes it that much better.

etalb1111 · Aug 19th, 2009, 02:59 AM

wow - that is a stunning bag! Black crash really is special! AP collection is super - congrats. Many thanks for the reveal!

bonniekir · Aug 19th, 2009, 05:57 AM

WONDERFUL!!

Can't wait to get mine!

Another AP collector..hahaha

sandysandiego · Aug 19th, 2009, 09:06 AM

Gorgy!! The leather does look different from my black crash bags. Has anyone asked Jackie about this? It looks much smoother. What do you think Lo?

Thanks so much!! In response to your comments about the leather type (and those of sandy, msterling, and suzi --) I was wondering the exact same thing. In fact, the crash effect on this leather is really subtle -- nothing like my pewter crash bags or the pics of previous crash bags that I have seen on TPF. I am curious to see how it breaks in once I start wearing it (I am holding out for cooler weather, it's 90 degrees F plus here now!!) I will keep you all posted, and will certainly post pics of the bag as it starts to break in. I personally loooooove to see smooshy, well-loved bags in pics!
