kcm1535 - What a beautiful collection of BV goodies! It's a great mix of classic and seasonal colors. I especially adore the Ferro Pyramid....

I fought having a veneta for a long time because I prefer bags with flat bottoms but it have become my favorite style. My SA has customers that collect only venetas.

My whole BV bag family ...



The centerpieces - my four beloved Venetas (obviously my favorite shape - just works for me) - two medium size in Noce and Ebano, and two large size in Aurora and Baltic ...



And my beloved new additions, an Ebano New Ball and Ferro New Pyramid ...



And last but not least, my new favorite pair of flats, and my new favorite little guy! :)



Whew!

Now I just have to pray my closet doesn't burn down or spring a leak from the roof...
Lovely and practical collection! We're bag twins with the large Aurora Veneta. That's currently my daily bag. And we're almost twins with the Ball bag in Ebano, only mine is the original style. I have some woven ballerina flats in Pergamina from a couple seasons ago.

I just love the Ferro Pyramid! If they keep making that color for awhile, maybe I'll have a chance to get one.

Thanks for sharing.

In my opinion, if you're going to have just one BV, the Veneta is the one. I'm so attracted to green bags--it's virtually a neutral and can be used with nearly every color.

Lovely bag! You have excellent taste.

Love everyone's collections. I will make a full post with mine as soon as I get my new wallet, in a couple weeks.

Til then, I took this today, it's where my handbags live in my small walk-in closet. This is really all the room I have for them, so as you can see, it's full and is keeping me from buying another unless I sell one, which I have no plans of doing. I actually do have one other, a Jimmy Choo, which is hanging on the back of the closet door in its dustbag.



I wonder if this pic would be any good for insurance purposes? Probably not...

Wow, Jane, you are so organized! Your bags are so lucky to have you as their owner, they can rest on the shelf comfortably while you're not using them.

I have to admit that I am a messy person, and with the shortage of storage space....hm... must clean up my wardrobe to make some space for my new bags (and they are all big bags!)

I'm normally an avid Coach collector, but FELL IN LOVE HARD for these two vintage Bottega Veneta pieces. I just won them last night on *bay for a grand total of $207 (just $103.74 each!) and they are new with tags! Photos are from the auction as I still haven't gotten them yet, but aren't they gorgeous!?!?!?
