Talking My Royal Josie Arrived Yesterday - With The Correct Strap This Time!
Didn't get a chance to take pics earlier, I ruptured my thigh muscle yesterday Won't bore you with the details, but the arrival of Royal Josie certainly made my day a whole lot better.

So here she is with a plain flat strap, silver HW and a handle drop of 30 cm. Forgot to take pics of the lilac cloth lining, maybe later on. I also received a dark purple pouch and wristlet, forgot to take pics of them too, duh.

Anyhoo, here are some quick pics I took. The Royal Purple is a stunning color and I really love the soft veiny leather. Very lightweight bag, which is perfect for moi

Is this the Royal Purple? I love distressed leather so much, so this leather is so attractive to me!

Ooh, that purple is gorgeous! Love the distressing/veiny look, it's just about perfect in that leather! The style definitely highlights the leather very well, congrats on the gorgeous bag!

Oof, sorry to hear about the thigh muscle. *wince* That sounds painful, but I hope it heals quickly.
