Default Reveal - I splurged this weekend - bad LOL!
I finally took the plunge and bought a bag I’ve been looking at forever, and loved for a long time. Ralph Lauren was having a two day sale at the Charlotte store and I absolutely couldn’t resist.

Presenting - my new calfskin Ricky bag. The leather is sumptuous, and it will distress beautifully over the years. Ranag in the Hermes forum is the one that got me interested in this bag (she has it). It’s just beautiful and the price was too good to be true.

Thanks guys! This is the first new bag for me in about 6 months; I was gulping a bit - ha ha! It was 40% off, with an additional 15%, so it was a "relative steal." Amazing how we get so used to these prices that an expensive handbag seems like a steal. Scary!

Great buy! I've always loved the look of the Ricky bag, but it was out of my price range. It's cool that you got a good deal.
