^^ Ok, I must be very tired because I just had to get up and go look at the bag!

The red hardware is matte light gold
The navy w/silver hardware is shiny - I don't remember the gold, but I would imagine it would be shiny also...

Not at all, everyone here answers my questions when I have them.

They are both smooth, shiny patent, with more rigid shapes than pre-fall/fall, like the old patents.

Thanks again Bethc!!! Now I'm officially "in love" even I haven't received the bag yet!! Can't wait!!

I just hope my SA will also ship the white wooden box and lagerfeld-signed white paper bag to me. It's a standard packing for the mobile art bags, right? I would love to collect them!!!

Thanks Bethc, I realized that was a stupid question on retrospect but I was too excited when I typed it just now... Anyway, I think the paper bags are gorgeous but they wouldn't include it in the shipping, right?

Ooh, congrats on your gorgeous MA bags!

And the signature IS laser etched - I remember from when Tokyo had the MA here a few months back. As far as I know, the signed bags didn't sell too well here as my SA was trying to offload them on me!

What kind of mobile art bags did Tokyo have? Is it the bling bling bronze bag? I love that bag! That one is quite pretty. HK has the matte black 2.55 (the one IceEarl has).

Our American sisters are so lucky cos their mobile art bags are so PRETTY!!!!
