My bag is actually at my parent's house so I don't have access to it....

By the way, the red Novak is 30% off at LVR....

I love both of those sonya!

The red is such a rich colour and the textured pattern on the patent one is really different and attractive.

I also like the cable knit one.

Thanks for posting!

I like the Novaks. I don't have any.... I may rethink this though.

I honestly haven't bought a bag in months (the last one I bought is a Valentino for my mom, so it's not even a bag for me).

I think the prices for those bags are good, especially when the remove the VAT for the US.... Basically the price in Euros is the price in USD....

brown, whine (their spelling -- is it "wine" or "white"?), dune and black all for 594 Euros, VAT included (so you get to subtract the VAT for shipment to the US).... $659 ... a good deal! (I didn't realize the exchange rate is 1.33 now!)

I just saw how much people are selling them on eBay.... It's cheaper to get one that you know for certain is authentic on luisaviaroma!

Gawgeous! Love the dragon!
And LondonBrat - can't wait to see your pics!
You can probably tell by my signature that I love the novak - when I win the lotto I'll post pics of it =)

I am after the knitted novak at the mo....its stunning but a little expensive (im having cash flow problems!)...the regular novak is a little too structured for my liking. But Its such a classy bag I have to say!

That's exactly how I feel.

I love the look of the regular Novak, but I prefer large bags to be slouchier, too.

I love the cable knit Novak; you know it's on sale on the US NAP site?

Can't wait to see your pics!

Until I bought this one and my RC Art Nouveau pattern Satin Roll Clutch, I hadn't bought a bag for 2 years!

They are really good prices.

Which one would you buy, sonya?

LOL!

I think it's supposed to be 'wine', as the one in the pic is a red wine colour. Very confusing! :blink:

Thank you!

Maybe you could snag a reduced one on LVR?

Aaaaaaa!!! THATS the novak I want! The one in your sig! Its sooo cute and classy and wintery! the Arran!

Chloehandbags- I wil I promise I will take photos! Dont tel me its on sale! I bought it for full price (but a while ago)!

chloehandbags · Dec 5th, 2006, 04:19 PM

^ Oops, sorry!

It's the knitted that's on sale, not the crocheted, BTW.

I know the feeling, I bought the Mini at full price. The first one had an unevenly sewn strip of leather and then the replacement had an over polished brooch (so the eye of one of the dragons was distorted). :blink:

So, it went on sale on the US site, before I even got a decent one, let alone the chance to use it!

I think the brown or red. The picture says they are 40cm across? That seems huge. I kind of like the ones with pompoms hanging off of it, but I probably wouldn't buy it.

I probably won't get any though. The Derek Lam is also on sale!

chloehandbags · Dec 6th, 2006, 09:24 AM

^ I don't think 40cm's that big, especially since that's just the widest part, at the bottom. But, I suppose it depends on your height and build, to a certain extent.

Love the Derek Lam...

...although, I've heard it weighs a ton.

I almost bought the clutch, but this just pipped it to the post.

Might still get the chance to buy it, after Christmas, you never know...
