What a great story! And your Mouse front pocket paddy is TDF!!!! Ohh... I wish I could find one of those...

HaHa Mint, I love your bags on the fur! So luxurious! I tried to relove my crossbody, but after one day, I couldn't take the weight of it. So...I switched to my choco med pocket. Soft, squishy leather, I love it!

While taking a favorite bbag into the bag-hospital, I decide to rediscover my Silverado:



Wow, every time I use this bag I am amazed at how gorgeous it is. It's just the most intense cognac color with the texture of the python scales (they are starting to flip) and the buttery calf leather that makes this bag irresistible.

In fact, I had my things in her when I dropped off my bbag and the Lovin My Bags owners were IN AWE over it. They both touched and checked out the fine craftsmanship and attention to detail.

But my blanc is amazingly easy to wear and keep clean!!! Not all ALL like my 05 work which is either going to be bagged and never used or just thrashed.
Thanks to hmwe46, vanilla is now with me and I have used her quite a few times already. I love her and so far no problems with dirt. I just started using my craie also, now that its officially Memorial Day all the whites are coming out for a spin.

thanks, LaineeGirl and Lenabean! And ReRe, u're the one who has the gorgeous vanilla---yummy! That's good to know about the lighter Chloe leathers! The leathers are sooo luxurious to begin with...it's great to know they are pretty easy to care for compared to some other brands!

Comparing the Bal whites with the Chloe white: OMG, the Chloe's are sooo much easier to care for and maintain in pristine condition!!!

I always wondered why some gals were hesitant to get whites cause my paddy's were so wear-and-go. But then I got my first white Bal and wow, it picks up dirt from nowhere!!

Wear those gorgeous pale Chloes gals!!

I fell in love with my Edith all over again! The first one I got was gorgeous but it didn't have a serial tag so I returned it. The second one I got was even more wrinkly, scrumply and pebbly. There's nothing like a first Edition Edith!

This thread is great. I pulled out my Silverado tote that I hadn't used since last fall, and I'd forgotten how nice it looks, and how great the leather is! I love the smell of it, and it makes me happy just to carry it around.
