Gorgeous! I've been contemplating something similar.... how does the durability of the leather seem. Same as cavair or more delicate? TIA & enjoy!

Gorgeous! I am also thinking of getting a matte reissue too as it's more understated for work. But I am still in a dilemma over the gold and silver hardware. What makes you decide to go with silver? My wardrobe are usually in black, grey, white or camel and thought silver will go better. But will the distressed silver look too blah with my almost monochrome wardrobe? Do you think the gold hardware will look too extravagant for daily use? The good thing is that with gold it's easier to glam up your outfit for evenings.
