The new BE couture is amazing, but it is driving me crazy! I have designed so many bags and plan to get one but simply cannot decide!

I am thinking that many of you are in the exact same situation. I thought it would be fun to describe your dream BE bag.

What bag would you get if you had, say $1000 to spend?

vixnkitten · May 3rd, 2009, 06:47 PM

What's yours?

sandysandiego · May 3rd, 2009, 06:53 PM

I am sooo bad! I love the TMA style and would like the look of that bag in pewter, black crash, pink, choco crash, and matte black! I carried my aubergine today and it was a bit heavy.

vixnkitten · May 3rd, 2009, 06:58 PM

Me TOOOO.....I don't have a TMA, but have the other popular styles. SO, if I say won a $1000 to spend on a BE, then I could duplicate color, or style, I think I would go for either a pewter or black crash TMA. If I am paying for it, I will have to say, I will have to go with what is on my brain right now....chocolate or deep purple matte TMA. You say yours is heavy??? I wonder if it is heavier than my dark gray matte LM. That thing, although gorgeous, is a monster!!!

Umm....I would LOVE a pewter Maxi Hold Me!!!! ( because it has not been created yet!!)

loveuga · May 3rd, 2009, 07:15 PM

I'm currently coveting a full-size MMS in either black cervo or wine cervo leather, with the light blue lining and silver hardware. I

the tan matte leather too and would love a WTM in tan.

Bali_Girl · May 3rd, 2009, 07:18 PM

Sandy was it heavy cause of all the stuff you put in it? Do you think the midi size would be better?

I really didn't have much more than I normally carry. Attached is a photo from awhile ago. I didn't have the agenda but did have 1/2 filled small bottle of water. I will try again and report back. I hope the size of this photo is okay, I am trying to resize my pics!

ScubaHound · May 3rd, 2009, 07:28 PM

Right now I'm dreaming of my perfect black bag: black pebbled luxe Love Me with silver hardware and probably purple lining. I'm waiting for a swatch of the lining before making a final decision.

But I'd also love TMAs in dark purple matte and charcoal matte thick leather.

lionlaw · May 3rd, 2009, 07:29 PM

OSTRICH!! Ostrich Love me or the maxi hold me maybe but ostrich! Or maybe croc?

Crud- ignore me- I just read the title and didnt notice the 1K restriction.

sandysandiego · May 3rd, 2009, 07:41 PM

Yes, the $1000 limit is difficult! I know that I will be doing osrich or python this year - it is inevitable. I am so bummed that Ignes is no longer doing ostrich in full-size bags. I so wanted that turqoise ostrich MO!

LL - how is your python LM? I love that bag!

Scubahound - I love the idea of a black pebbled LM but I would go with the blue! Can you tell me how heavy your TMA feels to you? It looks great on you btw! It makes me ponder a pewter TMA!

Susan Lee · May 3rd, 2009, 07:48 PM

^^^All of your ideas sound totally divine!!

I would go for a WTM in a pebbled glossy-probably the dark chocolate with light blue lining and silver HW. The dark chocolate is beyond beautiful. And a matching AP since my limit is 1000.00 :-)

Thanks, Sandy! I thought about the blue lining - it looks beautiful in everyone's pictures - but I want a bright, vibrant color: either fuchsia or purple. I don't think the TMA is particularly heavy for such a large bag. I'll bet it would look fabulous in pewter!

Loquita · May 3rd, 2009, 07:59 PM

Ahhhh...this is a fun thread. Thanks for starting it, Sandy!!!

Like loveuga, I would love a black cervo full-sized MMS with silver hardware and a front tassel instead of the little silver cubes...and the purple or silver grey lining (this bag WILL be mine for the fall, mark my words, muahahahaha!!), with a matching AP

I would also love a TMA midi in dark matte purple with silver hardware and light grey lining, with a matching AP

A pewter Hug Me, Love Me midi, or TME midi with silver hardware and light blue or purple or fuchsia lining (and a matching AP).

And I would lurve a maxi Hold Me (in apple green matte or dark matte purple a la vixnkitten!!!!

Can you tell that I suffer from a massive AP fetish??????????

sandysandiego · May 3rd, 2009, 08:11 PM

Scubahound-yes, the fuschia is hard to resist! I think I had to get 8 bags with fuschia lining before I was even willing to consider another color! I can't wait to see the purple lining! LL ordered this with her Lilac Love Me!

Maxi Hold Me! I want one!

Too many gorgeous bags!

It is so much fun to hear what everyone is dreaming of!

tenKrat · May 3rd, 2009, 08:26 PM

My next dream BE bag would be a TME Midi in dark chocolate pebbled glossy leather, gold HW, purple lining, and thinner braided handles (as in circoit's petrol LM Midi)---plus an AP in gold mottled leather!
