What color is pyrite?

I'm partial to Saddle! Never had anything like it!

The saddle was the softest, smooshiest leather. Only problem is that it is notorius for picking up dark denim discoloration. It has to be treated with a leather protector.

Oh my gosh! I think I *need* one of these bags, how gorgeous!

I have been so disappointed lately looking for a new bag for my upcoming birthday and now I think I have found it! This has all of the things I look for in a bag, I am so excited! :)

I've had a chocolate havana for 3 years now. It is the perfect bag. I love the magnetic pocket on the outside - that is where my phone lives. Everytime I am in-between bbags, I reach for my havana. Thank you for all the beautiful pictures, girls. I love seeing other havanas.

Quick story - this spring, a visitor from New York stopped by my office. I started hyperventilating because she had the first havana other than my own that I had seen irl. Hers was a badly treated light purple - faded, I'm thinking. Anyway, I made a big stink about her bag and she just shrugged - bought it off some sale table because it was purple, lallalalala. I was thinking "...and because it is just about the best bag ever made, really."

Toni I found Pyrite on an old HH thread here.
There's a good Mulberry picture, too... Color looks like the new Violet in plain leather.

Kathleen, great story. No one else has shared an experience like that.
What Havana are you going for next ? The new ones are very tempting.

Eggplant Havana is gone from the website. I wonder if it is DC.

MamaToJakers · Jul 31st, 2008, 09:26 AM

Why did I have to look at this thread??? Why? Why??

Love LOVE that chocolate woven bag....

Hi. Search is disabled... does anyone own a grey Havana? Pics?
Thanks! I'm seriously considering this bag but I haven't seen it IRL.

the Yam Havana is TDF! I hope the grey one is as beautiful

Thanks Sep! I ordered it and I'm really excited. After hearing everyone talk about their Havanas... well, you know how it goes.

I can't believe I'm going to say this, but, I think I finally have all the bags I need (at least for my needs at the moment). I may be going on a purse ban. My DH is going to be so happy.

cooper1 · Jul 31st, 2008, 08:15 PM

The YAM is TDF! Thank you!
It is my first HH bag and I am so in love! Now I want more Havanas in many different colors!!!
Yes, I too am totally in love with Sep's Chocolate Luxe Woven Havana. It is simply put: gorgeous!

Did you get the grey???
Congrats!
That was the exact picture that started my whole Havana Hobo frenzy! I saw that pic from the Big Bang Sale thread and I knew I had to have one. I wanted the grey, but found the YAM instead and fell in love with it.
Now, I still want the grey!!!! LOL!!!

Please post pictures when it arrives!!!!

evielovesbags · Jul 31st, 2008, 08:26 PM

Cooper, I ordered it from Luna Boston and got it for a great deal! Your Yam Havana pics were the ones that got me hooked. I'll definitely post pics when it arrives. Yay!
