Question Wait a minute...a tPF SO BV handbag??? Update post #190
Here is the most interesting email I've received this week. It came from our BV SO coordinator.

I was still thinking about the PF SO and had a thought...

Would the PF like to do an exclusive handbag SO? Of course I realize that not everyone would be open to the price of a SO handbag, but even if 10 or so clients wanted to do it, we could make it happen. I liked the idea because this order would be super-exclusive to those few who would be open to participating which would make the pieces even more unique. We could certainly do a unique style/material combination, as I know the PF prefers to be unique! We could also add plaques in either silver or brass with names, initials, etc. to make the bags even more special.


Sooooo, comments please????

Wow!!! Sounds very interesting and wonder what we could do? A Cabat would be over my limit right now, but maybe a Veneta or something else.

Nice to know that they love us!!

It would be super cool! but not so easy to come up with something that so many of us all love?

Oh so exciting to just think about it, though!!

Mid - that's what I was thinking! Surely we can come up with something.

I think we could do it if we went with something iconic...

Say a Large Veneta in something interesting like the purple ottone??

Mid- I thought it would be a good compromise...since so many love the medum and maxi size Venetas!

Will they make an SO in REFLET? I'd *love* that. I thought Reflet was off the SO list.

Don't worry, Mid, I'll help you!!!

OMG!! Either one of those choices would be fantastic!! I'll probably drool in my sleep tonight. lol


Just a thought, but the Mineral Ottone is gorgeous. It has a slight sheen to it. Saw a bag in Houston and it's stunning under light and could be a year round bag.

doreenjoy, the veneta just doesn't look good on me, in any size....
I'm counting on you, K!!

I think I read somewhere that parma chevre is now off the list too... I hope I'm wrong.
ETA: Please tell me I'm wrong!! BV SO

The burnt marshmallow would be nice, too, but it would be waaaaaay over my budget.

Maybe it would be best to ask what they can do for us first. Reflet would be a dream come true!

Elephant armatura?

Argyle, perhaps? It's mineral and moro, I believe.

Definitely interested.............

Large Veneta, Roma or Montaigne maybe??? If we were to choose a bag with hardware, maybe have something different than the usual goldtone.

Reflet or any color Ottone would be beautiful too.

What about something in nappa with karung trim? Sort of like Ranag's gorgoeus bag? A Veneta with that trim would be nice!
