I love the feel and look of lambskin but I hate all those lttle scratches so I always lead towards caviar.
Honeybeez I just got my lambskin now and I am a lot happier with this than with the caviar. It is more suited to me. Also, I was expecting it to be so fragile and delicate but it doesn't feel that way at all. It is smooth and lovely. I am glad I exchanged my caviar.
yea me too can't wait to see modeling pictures.
hurry up. hehe....
honeybunch, may i know how much u bought the lambskin and what r the colors available??
Does caviar soften up over time and use? Also, has anyone every taken their lambskin out in the rain and was it beyond repair?
I have not found that the caviar softens up like, say, a leather jacket would, but they really do age well. The caviar softens up in the sense that the synthetic appearance you mentioned (know exactly what you're talking about, btw) diminishes over time. Can't really explain why this is... My sense is, as the leather wears-in, its shiny "topcoat" (so to speak--I sound like I'm describing a manicure) fades.
ps. I'm loving your topics today, honeybunch!

Ha! Ha! Thanks Ginger! I am almost starting to regret the lambskin because it is so damn fragile. I have already scratched it in several places and haven't even used it yet! Please don't let me get remorse over sending my caviar back!
i am debating b/w a flap in caviar vs. lambskin. is the lambskin too delicate that i will feel afraid to use it? Do you think the medium flaps look just as good in the caviar? Are they just as dressy?
