I got home tonight after a long and very exhausting week of working 10-12 hour shifts with the H1N1 clinics to find a surprise from BE that my DH was kind enough to pick up from the PO!!!

Inside was a gorgeous black crash SPM in the NEW softer black crash leather. GORGEOUS bag is all I can say.......I immediately transferred all of my belongings into this one for tomorrow and tried it on. It's light as a feather!!!!!

Now.....I've yet to give it a test-run, but my initial thought is/was it could be a "smidgen" larger. Perhaps Jackie will consider making it in a slightly larger size.......but man......it's beautiful!!!!!!

Too tired for photos.....but......let me see........

Oooooh...love it! It's so sexy edgy cool. :)

Moonstarr · Nov 7th, 2009, 03:22 AM

I love it in the Black Crash ... very nice. Congrats!

Jenova · Nov 7th, 2009, 03:30 AM

It is beautiful and I am fascinated to hear a bit more about what you think of the new version of Black Crash. I agree that it could do with being a little bit bigger in all dimensions. I use mine as a normal handbag rather than an evening purse (it is too large to be ideal for that) and can get a lot in but all rather tightly packed.

bonniekir · Nov 7th, 2009, 04:19 AM

What a beautiful bag! The Black is really quite rich in colour and suits this style a lot! Great choise.

lovebags2 · Nov 7th, 2009, 07:19 AM

Contessa, I hope you enjoy this bag every bit as much as I love mine.

Larger? Hm... I'll have to give that more thought today when I wear my port. I always thought it was just the perfect size. Perhaps just a smidge bigger wouldn't hurt though.

*suzi* · Nov 7th, 2009, 09:29 AM

I'm a huge fan of the black crash. I was wondering what the difference is between the old and the new? Thanks for the great pics. It does look very cool in the black crash.

TropicalGal · Nov 7th, 2009, 09:32 AM

Really sensational!!!! You have great taste. What a chic lady you are!!!! xxxooo

VanBod1525 · Nov 7th, 2009, 09:32 AM

This is very, very cool. I liked it in the Pewter but I love it in Black Crash!
