I went to Greenpoint because I called and the said they had one Bronze Anaconda Ramone...
They had red and black Ramones (own 'em) and brandy celinas (own it), Joey cuffs (don't fit), farrow and pleasure cuffs (don't fit... lol... go figure.. PLEASURE CUFFS ARE TOO BIG FOR CHO-DIRTY)

Anywho.... I spotted what was not a brandy celina, but something darker, even darker than cordovan... could it be a bittersweet Celina?? It is a true dark cacao (85% if you will), I was wearing my bittersweet satchel and it is the exact color of the bag.. I snagged my first celina in this beautiful dark brown..

Some phone pics...

ETA: my hubby called me a dork for going pic crazy in the car... whatever dude, I've been called worse.

Those are beautiful, Cho! How cool that you found a matching Celina for your Gaza. And that Ramone is just to die for of course. Congrats!

Crappy Lighting and Phone camera, but here is my measly but cherished cuff collection..

And because I'm not crazy about the snaps on the new cuffs and they are too big anyhow... Gerard Butler will do DAMN FINE serving as my PLEASURE CUFF...

Gorgeous Cho!!! I totally love the Celine and we match now with the BA Ramones. That is the best HH cuff ever ever. Congratulations!

fafnir · Nov 7th, 2009, 03:01 PM

Great score, Cho! Those are terrific!

kdo · Nov 7th, 2009, 03:06 PM

Nice, Cho! Ya know, I once ordered a brandy celine but got instead a super dark, near black, one which didn't match my maddies. I returned it thinking something was wrong with it. I never knew there was a bittersweet. I wonder if that was what I got. Your cuff collection is growing!

chodessa · Nov 7th, 2009, 03:06 PM

LOL kdo, I probably GOT your return!!
Definitely does not come close to the maddie's shade and it almost looks black.. it's the only celine that's caught my attention.. I bought a couple others and gifted them...
If only I could get a moonbeam....

Suzzeee · Nov 7th, 2009, 03:07 PM

Nice score Cho - love your new cuffs! You're gonna wear that Bronze one everywhere - I swear that and the PL ones I have are the ones I wear the most! So, I made my flight otherwise we may have run into each other over there

Here's a pic of my new Grey Ramone that I snagged at the Nolita store on Thur.

EYE HEART BAGS · Nov 7th, 2009, 03:09 PM

I have a cuff that also was suppose to be Corovan but was dark like that too! I kept it & I'm glad I did!

Gorgeous cuffs. When my camera battery charges I'll snap some shots of my new blueberry Joey (ADORE) and my new cuffs from Holly Hawk (LOVE).

Does anyone know what colors the Joeys have been made in? I may be their only fan but I love them (fat wrists) and want more!

enga4 · Nov 7th, 2009, 05:14 PM

Wow, Cho! That's a gorgey celina!!!!! DEF. better than the other browns! And I know you'll super- rawk the ba ramone!

enga4 · Nov 7th, 2009, 05:15 PM

pretty grey cuff, suz! nice monochrome!

jennirane · Nov 7th, 2009, 06:01 PM

Yummy cuffs, Cho!! Great score (like finding treasure!) on the Bittersweet!!! It's a perfect match for the Gaza... and of course the BA Ramone you absolutely needed

lulu3955 · Nov 7th, 2009, 06:02 PM

Cho- That is so awesome that you found a bittersweet celina cuff! How rare is that!!!!!

I'm finally starting to get into cuffs. I've been wearing my Euc/blueberry celina one for 2 days now.

OK, a couple of shots of mine...Celinas in Blueberry, Yam, Ruby & Eggplant. Look at how the Eggplant has stretched! (I bought it used.) And a Black Mercer.

Thanks, Ladies! Love the colors Syb! So lovely.

I've loved seeing/drooling over everyone's cuffs. They may just be my favorite thing of HH.
