wow! lovely, lovely choices! all of them are awesome! The Dautore leather looks so puddley! i love treesje and the beatrice, well, just rocks!

amazing taste you have!

I can't say enough about Dautore. They have so much style and the leather is ALWAYS thick and luscious and smooshy and puddly. The leather is also highly pigmented, so the colors are so rich.

And thanks for the sweet comments, ladies!

toni & hide_fiend ...

that for sharing such lovely beauties!

toni - I have admired this bag for months....the satchel shape, how the handles are squared-off, the two exterior pockets coupled w/the shoulder strap - it's so functional! The leather is lush leather and the metallic color will wear nicely - I think better than their other leathers!

hide_fiend - Treesje and Dautore also make such nice leathers and I have lusted after the shape of the Beatrice.....! Great colors.

thanks so much for sharing

Here are my two recent purchases: Coach legacy in patent and a Belen Echandia Love Me Mini. I also purchased a Kooba Talia in black over the weekend.

Here's another photo of my two favorites. I'm just realizing that I have a thing for shiny bags.

Ditto chica1!!!
Your shiny bags are FABULOUS!!

Wow you guys - what excellent taste! I adore each and every bag posted! (and Cho - those shoes are so adorable, and Jan - that dress is SO cute!!!!)!

Blamblam, I've been dreaming of a Bayswater for about a year now, and have never seen that colour - I'll be hunting the auction sites now for one! DH does not thank you - I do though! LOL!

Chica, the BE LMM is a very popular style over at the BE forum. Yours is fuchsia, right? Not red?

chica1 · Nov 10th, 2008, 11:09 AM

Thanks, Chodessa! I didn't even realize that I love shiny bags until I put them together to photograph.

No, I wish I bought a fushsia LM. That would be too cute. I think its the lighting that makes it look fushsia.

Here's my (non-identical) triplets: My RM MAM's:

hey cooper1 -
thanks for posting! great lookin' triplets!
I have admired the MAM - but have never seen one IRL...have seen the MA and thought it was way too big for me. I like the proportions of the MAM much better and that you can get a shoulder strap for it, yes?

I think it's a classic shaped bag.....I have several classics, so maybe that's why I haven't pounced??

asark -
speaking of classics....yup, that's my Bayswater - but of course I had to have it in a kewl color! I know it's a bag that will last me a lifetime and I feel confident that it will never go "out of style"...the hardware and leather are utterly top notch....it's not the most organized of bags, but sometimes, we can forgive these things, yes? And, when I load her up - she does get heavy....again, forgiveness for sublime design!

tonsea · Nov 11th, 2008, 08:23 PM

Hey Coop!

I have been visiting the RM forum for some time now. I am going to purchase a MAM at the end of the month. I want a red one. I love the look and have heard they are so soft and smooshy!!!!

Really nice bags cooper1!!
RM girls (are they the minkettes??) are hard core for sure..
They love their RM...
I don't have any clue about the brand... I am scared to venture into that subforum... I may drown in the masses and no one will find me....

Chica1, I understand. I have a thing for shiny bags also. I have taken inventory on my handbag shelves (yes, plural meaning 4 shelves) and found almost 2/3 of my bags are shiny patent or metallic. And I added another just this weekend when I ordered the HH khaki patent corc. Here are two of my patent bags that are not HH (if I get the photos to work). One is Cynthia Rowley Ginney Too Tote in green patent. The other is Elliott Lucca Socialite Satchel in chocolate patent.
