So very pretty and so innocently inexpensive. It would have been a crime to resist it.

Yes! AND -- they are having an additional 40% off all sale shoes using code 'sale40' www.toryburch.com
(note the 40% doesn't show up until the very last page before you submit the order)

^^Wow, you got a bargain! I think they sell them on NAP aswell.

My 'new to me' baby - an 07 Small Chloe Betty in Fox. The little hanging purse is missing but I don't mind because I would take it off anyway.

^^^ Very nice Jenova! The leather looks all thick and buttery.

Looks in excellent condition too! (not that I know much about Chloe - probably just as well ....

)

Chloe leather tends to be very attractive - thick, soft and tactile - particularly in earlier bags. All my Chloes have worn well and improved with age but none of them are later than 07. I understand that there have been some quality control issues in 2008.

Nice Betty... I love Phoebe's desings... and the BEtty is my fav style EVER!

Dont you find the small a tad too small? I owned one in whiskey and i thought it was tiny for daily life... Darn cute, but small...

Jenova · Nov 28th, 2008, 04:15 PM

I think I will want to use it more in summer when I don't have to stuff it with my umbrella and gloves. It isn't as small as a Baby Paddy or a First which are really constricting bags. As you have suggested before, a Medium Betty is probably perfect.

mariabdc · Nov 28th, 2008, 04:27 PM

She can hold a few things, but i find it difficult to rummage into her... the baby paddy is even worse... not practical at all... not to mention the dangerous padlock banging into things/children's heads...
I love the brass rings... they give so much character to this bag... Chloe brass/golden hw is probably the only GHW i can take...

I don't mind the rummaging so badly if I have got a good set of secure (ideally zipped) pockets on the exterior. I prefer to be able to get at items I need fast without poking about inside my bag. As the Betty has 4 external pockets, it is already winning over most bags.

Today was a pretty big shopping day for me. I was able to get some good deals at Saks 70% sale.
