Does anyone else find this red Novak on LVR strange looking?
luisaviaroma.com ::: shopping on line
I know the picture is taken at a weird angle, but I find the color more orange than red. It sort of looks old rather than shiny and new like icechick's red Novak (as posted earlier in this thread). Do classic Novak bags come in different types of leather?
I really want a Novak, and 50 percent off would be wonderful, but I just keep thinking the red one on LVR looks funny. Am I the only one?

I'm not an expert, but I personally think it's fine.

If Mini Novaks can come in Fish scale leather, I'm sure Novaks can come in different leather finishes. I actually rather like the matt look of the calfskin, for a change.

I also really like the red-orange colour. If you don't like it, you shouldn't get it, though; 50% off, or not.

I hope someone, more knowledgeable can help you soon!

Thank you, so much, lara!

I adore it!

Sorry for the delay in responding, BTW, I forgot to check back!

As I just mentioned, in another AM thread, I'm now eying up the Leather & Tulle Novak Clutch with Organza Flowers!
