Hi everyone! I am just so excited. I was supposed to go to the grocery this morning but was afraid to miss my delivery so I stayed in the whole morning. I waited and waited and at around 11:30, the doorbell rang and the UPS was there. He had a very big box with him and I thought, "I hope the bag is not as big as the box!" So it's here, my first ever BV--Medium Veneta in Ebano! The bag is so well packed. I had to go through several layers of protection before I got to unveil it. The BV box itself is so classy with a leather ribbon. The bag looked big at first but once i started filling it up with my stuff, it started to slouch nicely. Now I understand what the others were saying about the size dimensions being deceiving. I'm so glad I took the plunge. Thanks for everone's patience in answering all of my questions about BV. Okay enough talking, here are the pics:

Beautiful wrapping and presentation. Thanks for the "unveiling". The medium looks perfect on you! Congrats on a beautiful new BV that I am sure you will enjoy for years to come.

Thanks! I can't wait to use it. Unfortunately it will have to wait till tomorrow. It's raining here right now and I'd hate to get any water spots on this beauty!

Thanks oogiewoogie! I forgot to mention, this is the lightest medium leather bag I've ever tried. And the slimmest, too

Ohhhh I love that! Congrats!

Congratulations! The ebano veneta is a lovely first choice and it looks perfect on you!

I love the packaging you received too ~ I admit I'm envious as I just received my first BV-boutique purchase and I must say I have received better packaging from eBay and BlueFly.... hrmph!

Congrats! The size is great and you look awesome carrying it! Enjoy!

That's the right size for you. Isn't the Ebano woven leather lovely? They are so lightweight--partly because of the minimum of hardware--the design speaks for itself.

Congratulations, my dear! Perfect choice :-)

GORGEOUS bag!! Congratulations!

gorgeous! I'm tempted to follow your lead!

What a beautiful introduction to BV! Congratulations on your ebano veneta. I love the look of the venetas - so chic.

Enjoy....

Thanks ladies! I'm doing some transcription right now but I can't really concentrate because of my excitement over this lovely bag. Is that weird? It's like I'm in cloud nine. I'm glad I listened to all of your encouragements about the Ebano Veneta. I was surprised how good that color went with denim (which is what I am in everday)

And it's true, there is no need for studs, buckles or logos to distinguish a great designer bag. It's just simply elegant. Okay got to go, have to pick up my kids from school.
