kavnadoo · Oct 25th, 2009, 04:39 AM

Congrats! I haven't seen this bag before, but then again I haven't been into Gucci for ages now. Congrats again, you wear the bag well. And wear it in good health!

llson and beejerry thank you

another pic - this time it should be better

ang2383, aeonat, petitechouchou, MyMyMy, kavnadoo - thank you thank you for your kind words

Queen - thank you too and thanks for all your help - the handles only fit if I'm not wearing a coat but that's OK. I would wear a little messenger-style bag with it if I was out and about all day.

More modelling pics:

Alexander McQueen Coat, vintage Gucci belt, Hermes deerskin cap from last year (can't remember where I got the boots but they were made in Brazil) and my silver Gucci babushka ring (not on purpose but I hardly ever take it off)

Cosmopolitan, I liked that version too but since Gucci don't usually use real pony the all leather this one stole my heart away.

Here is the inside of the bag

Also Gucci family pic of 2009 bags (slightly cheating because the Babushka Boston was 2008)

Extended 2009 (Gucci Group) family pic with a Balenciaga mirror leather holdall and a large cream YSL Majorelle (also 2008). Also new old - some new vintage acquisitions, 1090s shoulder bag, small crossover in brown GG suede, and a little Gucci clutch I use as a make-up bag (I have Bonny_Montana to thank for tipping me off about these cuties as our fave 'little boutique' was closing and these were left.

For those of you that wanted to see my Baba Boston - Here are some more pics of my Babushka with Balenciaga boots and Mathew Williamson scarf

My pics could be better. I don't know about in Holland but the weather in the UK today has been overcast and miserable - hopefully tomorrow I can take a couple of better pics

papertiger, gucci should give you some special life long discount for their bags, if they only knew how well you defend their honor!

the "secret" is the most elegant bag of the f/w collection to me. It beautiful, and I like it best in this version, without the canvas. congrats!

(I like all the other baggies as well, very nice

)
