Dear Minimouse,
Thank you for the welcome.

Thank you for all the help you gave my husband. I think he really learned a lot. These lines of purses are all new to me as well as talking to someone via computer. I'm used to getting to know someone face to face. I'm not much of a shopper as I never have much money to buy expensive things or anything at the one mall here in town. But somehow, my sister got shopping genes. She's always going shopping, but she has the job to support the habit also. Again, thank you. Zebra Girl, Colette

You two are an amazing couple, we're glad to have you here. It's inspiring to see a man take so much interest in purses and want to get it right. I love the name Zebra Girl, very fitting. Do come back and show us some more pics, perhaps of you modelling your gorgeous new Zebra bag.

Minimouse · Dec 31st, 2007, 01:13 AM

PS. Love your Zebra bags!

Colette, those are gorgeous bags!!!! I've always drooled over those D&B zebra prints when I see them in the department store. Enjoy and happy holidays to you and hubby!

I agree!

YAY!!!

Glad to finally see the pics and to meet you ZebraGirl! Welcome. You guys are just too cute for words.

fyi... The wallets don't have id tags, but if you still have the yellow registration card for the wallet, the information will be on the card. That's been my experience.

Zebra Girl, welcome to the forum!

Congratulation you got your dream bags. Even better, you have a very loveable husband. You two are a lovely couple. Wish you two have a Happiest New Year!

I just finished reading this whole saga from start to finish. What a sweet DH you have! My husband is pretty great, but I don't think he would have the nerve to join tPF! Welcome to both of you, and enjoy your lovely new bags!

This is what I got for Christmas from my wonderful husband!

He even surprised me by buying me the letter carrier purse also.

I can't believe he spent this much money on me.
I was even more surprised when I opened one box & saw the blue bag & pulled out a red Fossil purse instead of the zebra bag.
He said the look on my face was worth a million dollars.

He helped my register all my bags too.
Do the billfolds & coin purses not have the tag in them with the id # on them?
We could'nt find any tags in these and he bought them new at Dillards.
The rest of my bags had tags in them.

Here are some pictures of the purses he bought me.

Here are my Dooney & Bourke Zebra purses.

Here are the Fossil bags.

Well, nice to meet all of you.

Zebra Girl (Colette)

Wow-so nice to see a happy ending (or happy beginning on the PF)-I read Matt's posts, it seemed like he went through ALOT to get these for you, but I bet your worth every minute and every penny! Enjoy and welcome to tPF to both of you!

Happy New Year!

Here's some pictures.

He surprised me tonight & bought me another billfold.

We thought we'd also send a picture of Matthew & one of his bass guitars (he has 7!).
Music is his 2nd love!

It is good to talk with you.

Zebra Girl, Colette

& YYZ, Matthew

How sweet! He did a wonderful job. I love the bags he picked out for you, I'd have to say he's definitely a "keeper."

lilmarcool · Jan 1st, 2008, 10:46 PM

Thanks for sharing

Zebra Girl-you look great!

Matt-love the bass guitar!

Congratulations Zebra Girl! Welcome to the forum.

Zebra Girl and YYZ, you both are real stars and have brought such a smile to my face with your story. Zebra, you look great with your new bags, enjoy wearing them. As for you YYZ, isn't it time for you to get a zebra striped guitar to match??? My hubby has a PRS Custom 22 in a stripey dark gray color. He's self teaching himself, as we're in Saudi Arabia and no proper tutors here, unfortunately. I don't think he'd make the grade if Led Zeppelin ever regroup and need a guitarist. We tried to get tickets for their recent show in the UK, but no luck in the lottery. Now hubby seems to think we'll go anywhere in the world if they regroup for a tour. Fine if he pays for the flights, hotel and tickets, and my ear muffs!
