I'm BACK. Sorry I have been gone for awhile. Family stuff. Well I bought the gorgous Ferro Flats--shoes, and I love the color so much. But they don't make the bag I like in the ferro color. I love the simple flap bag. So I ordered one from Italy. And I figured, while I was at it why not order my other favorite color--Old Petra. Now they were really expensive. Each bag was almost $2600. They put my initials on the metal inside tag--that makes me so happy, and it takes 6 months but who cares. One light color for spring, and one dark color for fall. I spent all my money for the rest of the year but I am thrilled.

Yes, I will post lots of photos when I get them. No one else will have these colors in the flap bags!!!

Whoaaaaaa!!! What a lovely March 2008 it will be for you!!! Hopefully it won't take the whole 6 mos, but at least you will have a bag you know you will make you happy and is truly personalized.

Thanks Ladies,

Boxermom has the flap bag in her little picture in brown. Hopefully the bags won't take 6 months. I think I am on a bag ban until spring 2008

hillarys, that is amazing and congratulations! I like that flap bag too and Old Petra is my favorite BV color.

hillarys · Sep 23rd, 2007, 01:52 PM

Heres the flap bag in Parvo--purple with the little zip card case. I love the color.

Its a smaller compact bag that holds its shape well.

Mystiletto · Sep 23rd, 2007, 03:28 PM

love that purple color! i can't wait for bv to release another purple. i'm sure the ferro and OP will be just as beautiful!

catabie · Sep 23rd, 2007, 03:45 PM

i finally found out what purse you are talking about! it's such a simple and classic piece-no wonder you want it in 2 colors. congratz Hillarys on your 2 new purchases.

Syma · Sep 23rd, 2007, 03:53 PM

Many Congrats on ordering 2 beautiful bags. May I ask how much xtra you had to pay compared to the original price??? I'm waiting for BV to get back to me on whether they can SO a bag but they are taking their time about giving me an answer! How much deposit did you pay per bag?
