I am making the Sasha in a stunning cocoa color for Spring that is absolutely magnificent.

Oh my gawd...I can't wait to see this!! It sounds absolutely *tdf* and I think I will have to have one :)

Thanks for answering all our questions, Monica --- it is so great to see you here! :)

Thank you so much for answering all of our questions on this forum. Your time is much appreciated!!! I'm not sure if you are looking at the other threads on here, too, but there is one that I started regarding the Botkier Sasha in PUDDING and from the looks of it, everyone LOVES that color!

I know you said you are bringing back the sasha in a new cocoa color, but is there any way you will be bringing back the Pudding color?? (fingers crossed). I think that color is absolutely gorgeous and very very popular and versatile. Sorry to keep asking (and asking ...) . Just hoping to find this to die for color in the Spring line up. Hee hee. Once again, THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND ALSO, FOR MAKING SUCH AMAZING BAGS!!!! 6 of your bags and counting...

Botkier Sasha Duffle in Pudding

Slacker Mom · Sep 20th, 2008, 12:38 AM

Hello Monica,

I'm a new convert to your bags and I absolutely love them. I have to agree with another post on this blog that your line of bags you made for Target was my "gateway drug." I'm absolutely hooked! Started with one of the Target bags but have already progressed to a Bryant Hobo and a Silver Sasha. I'm hoping to score another Sasha from your website. The Sashas are great for carrying around diapers and wipes not to mention my own stuff! I haven't tried using it as a laptop bag but I hear they are strong enough to do that. I about cried though when I got jean dye on my silver Sasha. I've done everything possible to get the dye out but no luck. At least its on the back. I don't care I love this bag and I'm gonna rock it 'till the wheels fall off! I'm also new to tFP and I have to say that the ladies on this forum have also added to my new new addition. Maybe there's a 12 step program for this addiction? If it includes 12 new Botkiers then I'm in! My name is Slacker Mom,

and I'm a Botkier addict...

Hi Monica

Just bought a sophie in honey, and was wondering. Why do you name your bags as you do?

madaboutdarcy · Sep 21st, 2008, 09:25 AM

I just wanted to say that since I got my large black Sasha last March, it hasn't left my shoulder (arms too sometimes!). I love that bag! And you rock for making the time to hear us over here at TPF

Oh -- one last thing... do you have an upcoming bag that can do cross-body work but is substantially bigger than the Stevie convertible? I am thinking as big as the medium Bianca...? Thank you so much!

*suzi* · Sep 22nd, 2008, 10:28 PM

Wow. Purple and silver. I can't wait!

Hi Biggestbaglover - Have you ever thought of treating your bag with a water repellent? I use Appleguarde on my Botkiers, but if you go to the Mulberry forum they have something that literally makes the water run right off. Good luck!

Hi Monica

I am a little confused with the sizing of the Sasha Duffle. I want a bag that I can carry a few files, papers, books and perhaps a laptop but fit in nicely rather than having loads of room left and so everything moves around.

Could you please advise me which size would be better as I will be ordering online.

Many thanks

NoraV · Sep 26th, 2008, 07:09 PM

Kel28 - I have two large Sashas that I use as every day bags. I can fit my Macbook Pro, a 3 subject notebook, and all the other things I need. It all fits perfectly.

Seriously, same here, my first Botkier bag was the Fuchsia Target hobo, and I am hooked. Since then, I've purchased the Gemma in Grape, the Morgan satchel in black (killer bag!), and a Cherry Red special edition bag sold at the Botkier annual sale. My next purchase will be a Trigger.

Monica, thank you so much for making your bags so beautiful and practical. They really are works of art. You rock!

_lili_ · Sep 28th, 2008, 03:54 AM

Hi Monica! It's so nice of you to be answering our questions personally!

Would the Bianca Small Satchel ever be remade? In patent black w/ gold hardware? I seemed to have missed out and can't find one anywhere now :(

Thanks!

Stormy Heart · Oct 13th, 2008, 11:52 PM

Hello Monica,
Would you tell us about this Gold Pebble Laminated Metallic Bombay ?
Was it a Limited Edition ? (I've only seen one.)
I marvel at how Bombay stitching creates structure ! A masterpiece !

New Obsessions · Oct 14th, 2008, 02:42 AM

^^OMG...

That is absolutely an amazing bag...

Yes, I'd like to know about it please!

drew2007 · Oct 14th, 2008, 04:16 PM

Please bring back the small trigger in many many colors like balenciaga every season!

drew2007 · Oct 14th, 2008, 04:20 PM

I would just love a small trigger in a metallic turquoise or metallic cherry red or bright /hot pink smooth leather and a well just about every color -the small trigger in grape would be divine! I believe that botkier should make the triggers in 2 sizes with each season having a new set of colors just like Balenciaga does every season and every year! The trigger is the best bag of all times
!!!!! FRom one of your earliest supporters!!!!!! I bought a trigger from the first line at Barneys that you ever made ! My biggest regret is givign up my pebbled blush small trigger! that trigger was a thing of beauty and held so much for a little bag!
