I saw dark purple nappa (highly glossy) and dark purple patent.

Lionlaw, no they didn't, I still am confused too. Maria just told me that it was purple. To me it looks like it is a purple/burgandy color? I went with dark purple and dark purple patent trim on the mini ormala bag as I have a purplish/burgandy bag already and really wanted like yours. I did order a card wristlet in the Aubergine so I will post when I get.

No cute, so you are saying that the dark purple is highly glossey? Lionlaws bag does not look like that, does it?

It has a sheen to it but I wouldn't call it high glossy or glazed. It is not matte.

LL is right, it's more of a sheen. Highly glossy in comparison to some other bags I have (LP), so my point of reference is washed, matte. Sorry to confuse.

Looks like in the world of purple tones, elizat with have the first bordeaux bag and cathy has the first aubergine on the way. (Just consider me the purple historian of the subforum

)

This is pretty funny but I am going thru my bags right now because I am going to sell some because there are just too many I want right now (few spring RM's and possibly my first BE tomorrow). I came across a Francesco Biasia bag that still has the tag attached and the color is........AUBERGINE!!! It is like a very dark burgandy with purple undertones to it. With that said, I am glad I went with the dark purple then, since purple is what I am wanting. Not to say that they are exactly the same but I did order a wristlet in the Aubergine so we will see.

Anyone ordering a BE bag tomorrow at the sale?

Aubergine wristlet for raider..."check"

I should add a pouch to my bday order just to see the color.

Not to enable, but I have a BE TME-midi in Plum Crash. It's an incredible color that I can't even describe. I believe that color will be part of the sale, and I also read that the crash leathers may not be brought back.

I'm sitting the BE sale out. I would like a SM at one point, but gold is not what I want for the price. I love the MMS midi, but don't want another right now. None of the other in stock bags are grabbing me at this point. I like the LM Midi and TME midi, but the colors aren't calling out to me.

Me too! I am being good and will not even be looking that day. If I do, I will just buy something because it is on sale, but I already ordered what I wanted so must resist.

I hear you guys, I should not even look, but I really want my first BE bag. What would you guys recommend, what is a well liked bag. I am leaning towards the midi WTM, but not sure what color. I would really like one of the new spring colors, turquoise.
So, do you just order the same way you would order on any other website during the sale? There is no deposits stuff and being on a list?? Sorry, never ordered before and have only looked at the site.

You might want to check out this BE sale thread: Sale on Wednesday; question from Jackie! help! and maybe here: BE spring sale

Also, the sale is for only in-stock items, so it's handy to check the "only in stock" box under the list of bag styles to see what's available.
