Thanks ^ for the amethyst pics! Gorgeous! Did you score the Tiffany with the code from www.goldenbleu.com last month? I got one in black patent, wanted one in amethyst but was scared...I should have known it would be fantastic!

Anyway, as promised earlier, here are pics of the tiffany in amethyst. (except that the lighting in my place sux and the mirrors are poorly positioned for modeling pics, and I happened to be wearing a purple dress today which is not the best backdrop for a purple bag, and I SWEAR my calves are not that big in real life...

) Hopefully someone else will have better pics to post soon.

Anyway. The closeup pic is the best representation of the color - definitely more of a reddish-purple (yay!) than a blue-purple. SO gorgeous -- goldenbleu really puts everyone else's purple patent to shame.

In fact, I'm so in love with this exact shade, that I think this might be it for me and purple patent bags of any kind for a long while. (So much for that RM Market tote in purple patent!)

For anyone who might be on the fence about the tiffany style in general, the last pic is everything I carry in it: full-size HH clutch wallet (!), sunglasses, cell phone, lipgloss, ipod, earphones, and keys. There's room for plenty more than that, actually - I've only got it about 2/3 full in that pic.

Nice!!!

somanyamys - thank you for your pics! i love your tiffany in amethyst patent. i have been on the fence w/ a new clutch because i really don't need it, but for a clutch it seems so practical.

I'm usually not a fan of clutches, but this one holds SO much, is super cute, and was only $99. What's not to love?

It's totally Fab! I'm waiting for Fall to come around to use it.

Just FYI that Goldenbleu added some patent Carson and Audra bags to the outlet. Now they just need to have another code like this summer!

I am new to Goldenbleu and I have to rave about their customer service!! They are so professional, efficient, and friendly. I had a minor problem ordering from their website, and was so impressed with how well they handled it. It definitely makes me want to support them even more in the future!

tonij2000 · Aug 28th, 2008, 09:35 PM

I love the Carson and the Emerson, wow!

anyone own the katie clutch?? i want to buy one from the outlet, but i was curious as to the size, shape differences between that and the tiffany.

artlover · Aug 29th, 2008, 03:04 PM

I have the Katie Clutch in red patent. I think it is smaller than the Tiffany clutch but I should say that the size is just right for my needs. With its size at 13"L x 8"W I could fit a cell phone, lipstick and small powder compact, also my small wallet for CC and there's an inside compartment for my cash too. The gold-toned clasp and the tiny pleats or the gathered pintucked design at the front and back of the clutch also adds character and appeal to the clutch. It is very well made and it's one of my favourite clutch!! I don't own Tiffany clutch (yet) so I cannot make a comparison. Whatever you decide to buy (Katie or Tiffany), I hope you enjoy your new clutch as much as I do.

I just got my first Goldenbleu the other day

. I hadn't seen any of their bags IRL before until I unexpectedly saw a couple clutches and thought it was really random, but I couldn't resist since it was a good price and it is really cute .. so here is my black patent Tiffany clutch that I just bought the other day for $70.

The pictures aren't the greatest, (from my macbook) but I thought I would post them anyways!
(and for reference, I am pretty tiny, 5'1 or 5'2)
