Hello Ladies! I have finally taken the time and took photos of my Kooba family. I have been waiting to take one because I want to make sure they were all on my keep list and these nine ladies are definitely it. Enjoy and let me know your thoughts.

This is the full family shot and I also took separates. This is with flash which in my opinion shows the true colors of the bags but for the separate shots I took without flash.

Here are the Chelsea in brown, Claudia in pink and Lara clutch in magenta/brown.

Here are the Elisha in black patent and Roni in Metallic.

The Natasha in black and Tracy in brick suede.

The holy grail Sienna gets its own photo, this is the Sienna in ivory and the leather is scrumptious.

And finally my newest edition, the Jacinda in Sand. I really liked this style when it first came out but was waiting for my color options and was so happy to see it redone with that light beige neutral color.

OMG Thats a beautiful family!! Out of all of them I think the Tracy in Suede is so RICH looking. That whole studded group was soooo amazing. If it wasnt for this recession, I'd have them all!! How did the suede hold up..is it comfortable?

KoobaBagLover — Love your family! Ahhh, Ms. Sienna is my favorite! Wait...is that a tag I see on your Sienna?? Don't tell me it's never been used?

Thanks, glad you like it! I've been through so many different ones and finally settled on a mix of the old and new. It is surprisingly hodling up very well for a suede leather and the color is very deep. Regarding the wearability, I can fit it on comfortably on my shoulder with a peacoat but nothing thicker. Hope that helps.

I know! the sienna is my favorite too which is why i baby her so. After a couple of wears I was afraid she was going to patina a little too much so now I only take her out for special occasions. Most of the time I keep her in the dustbag with the tags in case i ...*gulp*

decide to let her go in some odd years. Do you have a sienna too?

I don't have a Sienna...but I would love one! To me, it's the quintessential Kooba bag.

Great mix of Koobas from different eras! I'm drooling over your blush Claudia - I gave up hope of ever finding one after ending up twice with a blush Chiara. Love the studded Tracy, too. That studded suede is gorgeous!

Thank you! I love that Claudia, so slouchy and roomy. There was a thread in the blog entries forum where Sienna Miller was seen wearing her Claudia in Black. It just looks so great against the body. I will keep an eye out for you if I happen to see one on Ebay or even Bonanzle.

Oh definitely, right up there with the Botkier Trigger, RM Morning After, Balenciaga Motorcycle, ...and the list goes on.
