Default My New Kooba Ellie In Purple pics
I received my new Ellie last week and wanted to share some pictures of her. She is a structured bag and the leather is nice and not as stiff as I thought it would be, but it doesnt feel really thin. The color is amazing in this distressed purple color more of an eggplant color. It is very dark and veiny with hints of a little bit lighter color here and there. The handles are stiff kind of like the Lena I got when it first came out. I hope they soften up. She is gorgeous and I love the outside pocket but you still cant beat the leather on the older Koobas now that was some kind of great leather.

Now this is what I call a really nice and practical purple. The style reminds me of bygone Koobas, that we so wish would come back. Looks great.

Wow. Really pretty! I just saw this bag in the Handbag forum in a thread and popped in here to see if anyone had bought one. I really like it- it reminds me of older designs and not the kind of odd bags we've seen recently from them.

This bag is absolutely beautiful! I have been eying the Rachel in this color over at Luna Boston and am thinking of pulling the trigger since they have the 25% discount code going right now - though not sure if it works on Kooba?
