Default A Reveal and Question for BV Ladies
Well, I have strictly been a Mulberry girl for a few years now, but thanks to a wonderful lady named Kroquet who introduced me to BV, I have received my first from Lovehandbags.co.uk, a very gently used gorgeous chocolate brown beauty!!

I'll do a slow reveal . . .


This is how Sam at Lovehandbags sends you your bag, it's fabulous.

Then you open the box. . . .

She's still in her dustbag . . . .

And here she is . . . .

Beautiful BV.jpg

I will post the picture that I took off of the website, it's much better than the pictures I can take with my iPhone.

I cannot get over how soft the leather is on this bag, she is in beautiful condition and I am so thrilled to have my first BV bag.

Can anyone help me and let me know what her name might be????

Thanks so much, so happy to be here!!!

Mombug

Kroquet, that's my chair, I'm a little archie bunkerish about it. If someone sits in it, I pace until they leave.

Thanks for the good wishes everyone. I feel an addiction coming on!! I don't know what will be next, but there will definitely be something!! Jburgh, when I first saw this little lovely, all I could think of were Hersheys Chocolate Kisses. I have never in my life felt leather this soft. When I take her stuffing out, she collapses into a pile of mush.
