Default What do you think of this BV?
Hi!

I'm new to BV and I don't know if I like this bag or not so I need your opinion. I can have this for 350 euros (about 518 USD) on a French private sales website. I do need a new bag and I know that BV are really well made... So what do you think of it?

Thanks in advance

I think it's a pretty deerskin bag, I'm a big fan of BV deerskin. The braided handle is also beautiful. It's also great to find BV on sale in black.
So you got me on three counts of yes!

Thank you

Boxermom, I don't know why they don't show up, that's weird

Anyway, it's a lovely bag but I'm not completely in love so I think it's better for me not to buy it... If I could buy any BV it would be the Roma, someday maybe...

They don't show up for me either. I thought it was just me.

I can see them, but the pics don't show up in a new window/tab when you click the thumbnail. Instead it asks you to choose a programme to open it. I tried to save the pics and upload them again, but it didn't work either. I remember this happened before with some pics in png format that jula (I think) posted in the celeb section.

It's a lovely bag in deer skin (not intrecciato but has stitching design in the center) in nero with braided handle.

But, if you are not completely in love, I'd say save for Roma.

I can't see the pics either but I know which bag you are referring to. I love deerskin but am personally not a huge fan of this style. If you love the roma I agree with Mid and say save for the roma.

That is an excellent idea. The Roma is a bag that you will have to love for many, many years.
