Very nice! I have a dark purple glossy PM and just love it.

As for the size, it's quite large. But, I happen to love oversized bags. I hope you get used to it. My motto is always try it for at least a week or two. I almost made an impulse decision to sell my SPM upon first glance and that would've been my biggest BE mistake. It's my favorite now.

I love the bag on you and the colour is gorgous!

I really like every picture of the Adore Me that I see. It looks very cute. Congrats!

rachaelmb · Nov 5th, 2009, 11:50 AM

The style looks great on you! And I really love the color too. congratulations on a beautiful bag

rosie07 · Nov 5th, 2009, 11:52 AM

Lovely bag congratulations

karmenzsofia · Nov 5th, 2009, 12:43 PM

VanBod, I see what you mean about the purple glossy being less saturated than the Aubergine, but IMO it's just as beautiful.

I love the leather's distressed look and shine, and the bag looks fabulous on you. Kongratz!

Van Bod..this leather is tough..more than the Aubergine....personally, I really like this type (similar to the Burnt Orange and Mustard Yellow)

Moonstarr · Nov 5th, 2009, 01:54 PM

Congrats! It's very similar to the Aubergine (I love the Aubergine too), but has more variations in the leather which I think give it character. I think this will be even more beautiful when it breaks in.

LOVE the distressed leather and the color is simply yummy!! Great looking bag and I hope that you will grow to love her :)

Jenova · Nov 5th, 2009, 02:34 PM

I love the way the leather has that crazed look. The colour is also rather subtle and unusual. I think that I may prefer this to the Aubergine.

Odebdo · Nov 5th, 2009, 02:49 PM

I love it!!

Thanks so much for posting your pic with your SMM...which I have...that makes it easy for me to see how I would like it!!

Love the silver lining and hardware!!

sgreg · Nov 5th, 2009, 03:27 PM

I love it!

VanBod1525 · Nov 5th, 2009, 03:40 PM

Thanks all!

The sun came out briefly today and the dark purple looked so lovely! It has a slighty violet cast to it (at least to my mind) and was really pretty. I wore the bag out and it is so comfortable, lies close to the body.

I think this one is a keeper!

SereneRun · Nov 5th, 2009, 06:32 PM

Thanks for sharing pics. I love both the style and leather. I want an Adore Me now :)

blivlien · Nov 6th, 2009, 06:04 AM

that is really pretty! i had an aubergine bag for a bit, which is a lovely purple, but i really like the dark purple glossy too. it reminds me of bal's raisin colour esp with the distressing.
