Just back from London with a small meet of TPF girls and came home with a gorgeous new Ebano (chocolate brown) large Campana bag.

It is absolutely stunning and drapes beautifully. I think this may be my HG bag!! The leather is amazing and so soft. Am totally exhausted and too tech tired to post pics, but will do so in a couple of days after a little rest.

Congratulations on your first BV, kroquet!! We are campana sisters (I've medium), isn't it scruuuuumptious?

Do take a good rest! Looking forward to the pics and to hearing more about how you got your lovely!!

I actually had some great advice from Alisonanna and a friend found it on sale at Selfridges, I think, in Manchester. She picked it up for me and I was lucky enough to get it at our little meet. Was so much fun as I have never been to London. So, the bag was even more special as it was chosen by a very amazing and lovely friend!
I spotted a gorgeous red pleated Veneta at Harrod's and was doing some serious drooling and it was on the shoulder of someone, so I couldn't have a try on!

Mmmm, ebano. It is the perfect delicious milk chocolate color. Looks so silky. Congratulations on your new bag.

What a beauty!!

She looks so luscious!

boxermom · Oct 15th, 2008, 03:25 PM

Possibly one of BV's most beautiful bags! I've said this many times--Ebano, IMO, is the best color to show off the woven Nappa leather. You have great taste. Congrats and wear her in good health!!!

Mid- · Oct 15th, 2008, 03:39 PM

chaz, may I just say that those pics are so beautifully sexy?

alycat · Oct 15th, 2008, 03:58 PM

Wow, it looks stunning - that leather looks sooooo soft! Kroquet would you do some modelling pics at the weekend. Would love to see it on you.......

kroquet · Oct 15th, 2008, 05:07 PM

Thanks ladies! It is a gorgeous bag and my all time favorite. It does look like chocolate! Will take some modeling pics, although I cannot do justice to Chaz's pictures of it.
