^^ Oh no, that's a bummer.

Were you carrying your fabulous veneta or sloane?

blueiris · Apr 1st, 2009, 09:48 PM

^^ Neither one, Mid-. First, I felt too guilty about keeping both the Veneta and the Sloane, so I had to return the Veneta for my peace of mind--it was just sitting in my closet, for several weeks, so it was a sign that I wasn't dying to use it, anyway. It was for the best

Second, I still have not gotten out of my habit of bringing just my nylon messenger bag with me on the train and shoving just a little dinky purse inside for essentials.

My train station platform is exposed to weather (just a small shelter that does not extend to the platform), so I've ended up treating every day as a bad-weather day and don't bring my nice handbags to work. I should probably break out of that, eh?

Last week outside Staple Center in LA: I was there to see the World Figure Skating Championships. I saw a guy wearing BV sunglasses. I don't think I've ever seen anyone on the street w/ BV sunglasses until now.

Wow... you are so lucky to spot BVs... The only one i've ever seen here is my own Campana! LOL

kroquet · May 22nd, 2009, 10:04 PM

Maria - same here. I just see mine. But, a couple of weeks ago, I spotted an orange BV. Didn't get a good enough look to tell which style. It was a stunner, though.

Location: Singapore

Over the weekend at Paragon, spotted a polished lady carrying a medium noce veneta walking into the Ferragamo botuique. Less than 5 minutes later, another lady zipped past me with a large torrent veneta.

This morning at the bus-stop, a lanky lady in work attire has a well-seasoned and deliciously slouchy large camel campana slung over her shoulder.

quite rare to see a BV in my neighbourhood!

spendalot · May 27th, 2009, 08:34 AM

It was my pleasure to spot a Cabat in PELTRO!

It's so gorgeous I kept stealing glances at it. None of the pictures here does Peltro any justice. It's so reflective and light just bounces off it.

Location: Today at CK Tangs Singapore
Size: Not sure if Medium or Large but it looks huge to me. On a slim and pretty lady in a white sundress. I noticed she has a BV wallet as well.

I was waiting in the park outside the BV store last week waiting for it to open, feeling guilty that maybe I shouldnt buy a new handbag from the sale, and sure enough someone walked by with a loveley large crimson veneta. I took it as a sign. I walked in the store and bam, my dream bag was right there waiting for me!

LT bag lady · May 31st, 2009, 01:03 PM

Okay , who was it? Spotted a Ferro Sloane walking down 5th Aveune yesterday around 6pm just outside of LV, maybe you saw me with my Nero Sloane in front of Bergdorf for Men...

I had never seen the Ferro IRL, now I may have to get one...

kroquet · May 31st, 2009, 03:15 PM

^^Isn't there one on ebay right now??? A little enabling sent your way!!! haha

One of Singapore society ladies, Dr. Caroline Heah, with her BV Knot clutch at the recent gala dinner celebrating the 25th anniversary of The Peak, a high society lifestyle magazine.

Yeah, all I read was Ferro, Ferro, Ferro and then one day in San Francisco BV I saw Ferro

There is something indescribable about the leather and the color. The sheen of soft satin, the subtle glow of ucalyptus blue/green that comes through the beautiful mid grey as it moves and the light bounces off of it.

Geez, I think I need a cigarette

Needless to say I soon was the proud owner of a Ferro Sloan

I think you must get one!
