Welcome to all the new BV forum members! I see quite a few are new to the PurseForum as well. It is fun to read all the bios, I always feel like I have at least one thing in common with everyone. Especially coffee, Mojitos, collecting watches and nerdy TV shows, hehe.

You'll find a great friendly group of people in BV who love to share their BV stories and listen to your own!

I am new to this forum but look forward to learning a lot from all of you. I recently bought my first BV and this last month have purchased several more. Since I am a bit of a minimalist, I won't be collecting lots of bags. I plan to just buy the ones I love (and can afford) and use them every day.
