Wink Root (beer!) STROKE ME!?
Hi Ladies. Before I go to BECouture and order one for myself, I'm asking if anyone wants to join me in a Group Bespoke for a ROOT STROKE ME.

Jackie tells me that Root is a very light leather. And...I love the minimal perfection of the Stroke Me. I thought it would be especially timeless in this combination? Any interest?

I especially like my Stroke Me for travel. Packs flat. Looks so darn...chic!

Hmmm....gee....I can see I've really excited a lot of people...! Well, I am just being polite and offering before I go off to BEC... But I'll wait a bit and see if there is any enthusiasm yet to come...!

LOL, your funny.

I don't think bespokes have been going very well here lately.

Good luck on BEC. I hope you get a bag you love!

I haven't seen any pebbled leather SMs, so I can't wait to hear your review on this bag.

Well, I might just be the first to own a root pebbled Stroke Me.

One of my first BE's was a choco matte Stroke Me. I adored the bag, but ended up gifting it to a friend of mine. I have missed it ever since. Since root is the dark brown that I like, I thought it would look great in a Stroke Me -- just a huge expanse of leather. Another possibility might be to BEC a port Stroke Me. Still thinking about it. But I will definitely do a Stroke Me. I think it is a brilliant bag.

Hi TG

Not at all but the timing is just bad right now. I have bags arriving from the BEC sale, bags on order and I just bought 3 bags off Bonanzle. Plus I want an Enchant Me Midi in Port. As much as I would like to have all my dream bags, my money tree refuses to bear fruit!

^^^Totally understandable! Can't wait to see your Purple Adore Me. I said it in another thread, you are brilliant! The Enchant Me Midi in Port sounds divine too.
The spirit is willing, the wallet is weak.
