During lunch today, a dark truffle/grape sloane just outside the newly opened ION.

I had to peel my eyes away from it. It was such a gorgeous purple

This morning I saw a lady with a black veneta...looked like the large size. It was beautiful, well broken in, but when I got a closer look it seem to have a dark red stitching going through the woven leather. Perhaps a special edition piece?

I was in town for about 3 hours and I must have spotted at least 10 BVs!

Some of which I can remember:
1) ebano large campana at Miu Miu boutique
2) ebano medium veneta at LV boutique
3) large white veneta outside hermes wheelock
4) large ebano intagli at isetan scotts
5) medium ebano campana along the escalator at ION underpass

the rest of which I cant remember...

jadelim, I think I spotted the same ebano large campana at Paragon

and I kept bumping into the same lady with the campana.

Yes, Orchard Road are full of ppl with BV, what were you wearing? I may have spotted you too.

OMG!!!! Went to the Mall today despite the bad weather, some shops were closed due
to the severe flooding.

Little story first:

I was quite pissed at DH for leaving DD's lunch box, had to wait for the driver to get it, so while we were talking about where to have lunch, I saw it, just a mere glance, but I saw it!!! It was my bag!!! well of course not my bag but..there it was, on the shoulder of a very pretty mom with two lovely DD's...I nearly fainted and wanted to ask the lady what color it was, I had no guts to though...All through out lunch, that bag was in my head, its a sign!!! I thought to myself, if I bump into the lady again, for sure it really is a sign! After lunch, I had to do a little shopping for DD, since she's starting play school and all. The bag was still in my head! While buying at Zara, I saw this little girl with a cute hat, DD was in her stroller, and the little girl kept coming back because DD had an attention grabbing toy with her (it was a bit noisy for a toy)...all of a sudden, I turned, there it was....

Large Red Veneta!

>>dunno if it was Eclipse or Crimson though. Nevertheless, it was gorgeous

I couldn't help but stare at the bag! the litlle girl with the cute hat was the DD of the red veneta carrying lady. I know the lady's DH saw me looking at the bag from time to time, I wanted to ask her soooo bad what color it was....I couldn't bring myself to do that, they might think I'm a nut-case!

SO I took it as a sign....I know my ms red is coming to me real soon!!!

I saw what I'm pretty sure was an armatura Veneta today in downtown New Haven. Kind of blew me away because I never see other BVs around here.

leilani01 · Oct 8th, 2009, 11:57 PM

Last week I had my first sighting of a ball bag. The woman was carrying the classic Ball in Noce and a small BV shopping bag. (Bloomie's SCP).

I wonder what lovely small accessory she got....

Coincidently I was also carrying my (nero) Ball bag!

Spotted a Korean lady with a beautiful dark greenish almost grey blackish campana at Japanese grocery store tonight. What colour is that?

Sounds like Torrent.

BagEssence · Oct 11th, 2009, 10:48 AM

Thanks Spendalot.
Torrent, love the colour, goes well if got that silky light asian skin like most Korean girls do.
Hardly ever see a BV here in this town. Too many fakes LVs.

spendalot · Oct 11th, 2009, 10:55 AM

You're welcome. Now you're making me want a Torrent. I'm asian

doloresmia · Oct 12th, 2009, 05:09 PM

LLANeedle · Oct 13th, 2009, 05:09 PM

Today I spotted a woman with a ferro roma at my local market. And last week, a woman that frequents my 'nail place' had a light colored veneta. It looked well loved. I've seen her before with a bag that I thought might be a vintage BV but I couldn't be sure. This is truly news breaking as BV bags are rarely seen around here.
