Well, I am sure by the title I have given the surprise away...but none the less I was excited to share my most recent purchase with you ladies! This is the first MJ I have bought and plan on keeping! I really like it so much more than I expected, and it smells like leather heaven!

So a little teaser:

Dawn · Jul 1st, 2009, 10:23 AM

ooooh take it off! yay!
reveal reveal!

scoobiesmomma · Jul 1st, 2009, 10:30 AM

YAY!!! I am glad someone is around for this!

This one will seal the deal!

scoobiesmomma · Jul 1st, 2009, 10:34 AM

And b/c I am so impatient...TA DA!

Here she is in all her glory:

I read over the MJ care sections, but what do you ladies recommend I treat this beauty with? Does anyone have this particular bag and if so have you treated yours? The leather is on the lighter side, and I think will scratch easily, so I am a little scared to use it w/out treating it. Should I treat the handles with FHO?

I LOVE it!!

scoobiesmomma · Jul 1st, 2009, 10:47 AM

Thank you heathie02! I love it too! Which of course is a really good thing!

Dawn · Jul 1st, 2009, 10:47 AM

congrats! i love it!
i don't have any recs for the care of it (sorry) but have found that leather conditioner (apple guard or others) helps buff out small/light scratches sometimes.

That's really beautiful Scoobie!!!! Which groovee is this?

scoobiesmomma · Jul 1st, 2009, 11:00 AM

Thanks Dawn and paula rose!

I am no MJ expert, so anyone feel free to correct me if I am wrong, but I believe the offical name is the Marc by Marc Jacobs Dr. Q Groovee Satchel in Tan/Camel, from the 2009 Summer collections. Here's a link to the same bag on Neimanmarcus.com:

Congrats on an awesome bag! This makes me excited for the Groovee in Aluminum that I've pre-ordered.....I really like the rolled handles on yours, a nice little detail. Enjoy!

Love your new bag!

Welcome to the Groovee club!! I have last season's in Indigo so it's slightly different. Great bag. I condition mine with a good leather conditioner (we don't have Appleguard in Australia) and it keeps it in mint condition. Beautiful leather. Sigh...

Cheryl24 · Jul 2nd, 2009, 04:34 AM
