Does anyone have BE bag in Tan? I'm very curious about the leather and would like a description, and pics would be helpful as well.

ok question- I love the leather of the Bbags- but they are so trendy- from what I've seen, the leather on the BE bags is the same (that "wavy/crinkly" line pattern look, almsot looks like a lighter and darker color) super smooshy. Is it true??? I'm obsessed with that type of leather but would SO much rather have an unknown(ish) bag!!!!

Sorry if I posted in the wrong place, but BE doesn't have its own forum!

Some BE bags have leather that is very similar to Balenciaga, but others are quite different. For example, the leather on my wine LM reminds me a lot of Bbag leather in terms of distressing and smooshines. However, it is a bit thicker and has it's own unique quality.

I'm actually enjoying my BE bags more than my Balenciaga lately. It helps that they're less expensive and the interior lining and pockets are far superior.

I own 3 BE bags and one accessory:
LM in black crash
SM medium in wine
BM in steam
AP in purple
But I guess I'm done for now because I got every bag I want.

thought it would be fun to bump this thread. :)

i found about BE through tPF. the last day of the February Giveway i went in and saw the picture of the Love Me Mini (LMM) and i thought, my god this purse is soo cute. i went to the website started looking at the designs and fell in love with the designs and colors.

so far i have just Love Me Mini in Dark Grey and an Angel Purse in fuchsia. I'm already thinking of my next bag..either a I'm Yours or Be Mine in pearlized light grey. i want the Casual Bag or Zipped Bag in turquoise as well, but that's been long discontinued...
