Default Truffle Veneta Reveal--it finally came!
Normally I don't do reveals, I just post a photo, but this is a new Fall/Winter color and deserves a little extra attention.

It's a large Veneta, my favorite of the BV's I have owned.

It came in a box shape different from any sent previously from BV. Hmmmm

It just occurred to me that it's not a reveal if you already know what it is!!! But I mentioned it in every thread here, so it's no surprise. The color is the reveal.

Here she is! It's an unusual brown. I'd love to ask T. Maier how he thinks up these colors. It's not as genuine dark brown as Ebano. When I first opened the dustbag and pulled it out, I saw the purplish tint in the brown that Nicole from Atlantic City described. I don't always see it, but it really makes this a unique brown and I love it!

Exquisite!! Congratulations, it's scrumptious. I love how the light plays off the cocoa-ness of the bag. Honestly, how DO they come up with these gorgeous shades?

Thanks for the compliments, my friends! Now I have 2 very different Venetas--Aurora and Truffle. I know I will enjoy wearing this new one with a variety of colors.
