What a frenzy we have here at the BE sub forum!

What bags are you planning to order??

I know that I want something in the Natural - either a BE Mine Mini or a Hug Me! Something blue! Purple! And red! Well, that is my wish list so far.

I am excited to hear what you are getting!

Euridice · Jun 4th, 2009, 05:34 PM

I know! My plan for dark green and dark purple are out the window!! It's a brand new game!!

I might just wait and see what bespokes develop in the bags I am interested in.

I like these styles:

Hold me - clementine??
Be Mine
Charm Me
Hug Me - regular
Adore me (that fold in the middle would be superb in the pebbled luxe leathers!)
Original TMA

the pebbled luxe that I love right now are:

natural
light coffee
moss
clementine
red!
dark purple (but I have some dark purple bags)

I need to distribute one of those matching games where people draw lines and match the leathers to the style....then make my wishlist with the winners!!

TejasMama · Jun 4th, 2009, 05:37 PM

Well, all of my mindful babble will now be sorely tested because of all these new leathers! It was easier to resist other bespokes and bags because 1) I love my dark grey LM like nobody's business and 2) I really love pebbled leathers. Jackie's got some gorgeous choices, so now I'm in a pickle.

I love the natural leather but worry it will be too light or delicate for my lifestyle (read: loud, loveable messy kids who often bring friends with them). I love the shark but already have my beautiful grey. I think the port leather is one of my favorites ,and the petrol pebbled luxe isn't far behind. Oh, and light coffee...gorgeous! I would like some color, but it would have to be more subtle.

Right now I'm having fun thinking of the possibilties and listening to other Belenistas' ideas.

Euridice · Jun 4th, 2009, 05:40 PM

I know TejasMama! I had declared that I would buy no more BEs unless it was crash or pebbled glossy!! And now look what happens!! I know I like a lot of different options so I will be happy with whatever I end up with. That's the good news.

sandysandiego · Jun 4th, 2009, 05:45 PM

Not to try to complicate things further, but I got this from Jackie about her favorites of the new leathers:

Of the new leathers my favourites are the dark purple first, then cream, natural, shark, red, maybe coffee, maybe beige-taupe .

Of the new blues my favourite is the “petrol” pebbled luxe.

I asked which of the blues she prefers. This is part of the reason I picked the colors I did! She is the expert.

TejasMama · Jun 4th, 2009, 05:48 PM

Euridice,

I also really like the dark pebbled purple as well. Really pretty and seems very versatile.

Sandy--that petrol pebbled is really fantastic, isnt' it? It's like a nice splash of color but it can still be a neutral.

SereneRun · Jun 4th, 2009, 05:49 PM

I'm going to get the dark purple pebbled luxe Enchant Me and petrol/light navy pebbled luxe WTM Midi.

Euridice · Jun 4th, 2009, 05:52 PM

Yes, that purple is sensational.

Actually, Sandy, that does help! Although, Jackie chose ALL the new colors from many others, so these are already her favorites! oops, I just opened the field back up again...

sandysandiego · Jun 4th, 2009, 05:54 PM

Yes Tejas - before the new Luxe leather explosion, I was feeling so good about not wanting anything and feeling happy with my current collection. Now all hell has broken loose!

I am trying to whittle down my list to just 2 bags. Not much hope for me now.

lovebags2 · Jun 4th, 2009, 05:56 PM

Tejasmama I"m with you on this. I'm just enjoying everyone's happiness and there's something to be said for that!

Also, I have to give Jackie credit. Everyone asked for cervo leather and that's when she went straight to Italy to find a color to suit everyone's taste. Now that's really listening to customer's needs. Kudo's to Jackie for doing a fine job in trying her best to please all!

TejasMama · Jun 4th, 2009, 06:01 PM

LB--yes, Jackie really listened to us all clamoring for pebbled leathers! She found some beauties!

SereneRun-I envy your decisiveness!

Sandy--Good to have a number in mind. I have a number..it can only be one for one bag must be sacrificed from my closet!

I'm thinking the dark purple luxe Hug Me would be amazingly fantastic. It looks like a year round color to me and that style handles color so well. *sigh*

Anyone else pondering? At this point, it's just fun to post ideas about what we like. No commitments necessary. Just wishful dreaming!

Loquita · Jun 4th, 2009, 06:37 PM

Great thread! It's a wonderful opportunity for us to dream and help each other figure out how to mindfully choose bags from the amazing selection that Jackie has put forth!! I am down to five bags right now (provided the three that I have on sale sell), have one on the way, and have sold three others lately, so that means I can get a few bags...(I do the 1 in, 1-2 out rule). Here's my top pics, in no particular order:

- Natural Hug Me
- Clementine Hug Me or TME
- Dark purple EM
- Scarlet EM or TME

I can get two bags, tops...one will be the natural, and the other must have some color! I am leaning towards clementine, although I love the others so much...I may just get them all, but space them out considerably and depending on group bespokes.

sandysandiego · Jun 4th, 2009, 07:18 PM

^^I am attempting the 1+ out, 1 in but so far it is not working so well. We can dream

Euridice · Jun 4th, 2009, 07:21 PM

well, try 2 in + 1 out and work your way up to it, lol!!
