OK, so I'm still hunting for a black bag. The Newman is on it's way (i think, fingers crossed) but I'm giving that to mom for her b-day. Now if she doesn't like it, search over, I've got the newman and she'll get the backup plan. BUT if she does, I need one (cuz mr $20 from ebay ain't gonna cut it). The bags I am contemplating are:

Havana
Trophy
Zee Tote
Athena tote

Does anybody have the Zee? How does it hang/ride/etc?

The trophy in black is super gorgeous!!! I vote trophy!

PiggyinManolos · Oct 30th, 2009, 04:06 PM

yeah, i see one now....yum

Jordanopolis has the eucalyptus Zee, she has pictures on her website; look for a post of her's, she has the link there.

I'll see if I have it somewhere.

Hmm.....It looks a little long too.....the trophy has a zipper (plus) the zee doesn't (minus).....I think I'm leaning more towards a trophy....

sidenote...Luciana's collection is amazing!

kate83675 · Oct 30th, 2009, 04:35 PM

I prefer a zip top too.

Her collection is amazing and she's so cute you just want to pinch her

sallyca · Oct 30th, 2009, 04:35 PM

The trophy has great outside pockets too.

missangelina · Oct 30th, 2009, 04:35 PM

I second the vote for the Trophy

kate83675 · Oct 30th, 2009, 04:43 PM

There's a black Zeus Trophy on eBay right now too; I like the BZ after seeing it on my Marcel.

PiggyinManolos · Oct 30th, 2009, 05:01 PM

how is the BZ different from just regular black, and from crinkle patent?

fafnir · Oct 30th, 2009, 05:05 PM

Trophy. No contest.

I think there's one on Bon too! May be the same seller?

PiggyinManolos · Oct 30th, 2009, 05:21 PM

is it still soft though? i dont want it to feel "fake" kwim?

enga4 · Oct 30th, 2009, 05:39 PM

NOTHING of HH's feels "fake." Even the patents, the crinkle patents, nakeds.... everything they make is soooo divine IRL, I'm almost GLAD for the bad stock photos, or I'd have a way-bigger collection than I already do.
