the Remy is actually very similar to the Groovee, but it has twisted leather handles/straps and no longer shoulder strap

Can anyone tell me the name and what season it is from? also... was it like a dark gray? or a black? My picture looks like it was a gray but it was dark in there so I couldnt tell in real life.

it looks like it may be this one? Sorry, I know nothing about this brand.

thanks in advance!!

it's definitely the groovee probably in black. it was made with straps down the side for fall 08 and resort 09. there was also nude, grape, and navy blue. the mbmj boutiques might still have it or department stores if it hasn't already disappeared due to the sales, but you should have no problem finding it on ebay. just be sure to have it authenticated here first.

eta: plazatoo still has the beige.

Yesterday I found a MJ bag which was this shape..

and the body was quilted like this....

yet the colour was all cream... and it had Bronze studs on the bottom half of the bag. Can anyone identify it?? I wish I had bought it as it was on sale! Now I cant stop thinking about it!

the bag on the left is the Mika from S08 - it was a boutique exclusive
it did come in white/ivory (tadpole has one)
the bag on the right, while similar, is the EVENING POUCHETTE (also from S08), which was sold at dept stores and the boutiques -- both bags are made from the same type of material, but the Mika has double straps (two chains) while the pouchette only has a single strap.
The mika is also lined with leather, while the pouchette has coated canvas lining - if you do a search, you'll find several threads regarding these two bags

btw, this is called the SATIN RAD BAG & I believe its a 2008 Resort bag (but it didn't come in quilted form)

it sounds like you're describing the glitter rad bag from spring 09.

Sorry can't help Jun but that teal contrast stitching looks so pretty against the leather.

I believe that this is from F/W02 (the same season the Zoe was introduced) -- there was an entire line of bags like this -- there was a hobo bag that had the dog leash hook on the front that was simply called LARGE HOBO. It was originally made from tumbled calf leather w/suede lining (like this clutch). The hobo was re-released for either resort 02 or spring 03 in soft calf leather w/pin-striped canvas, and at that time the name was changed to ZOE HOBO

I don't think these had a fancy or creative name -- it was likely called simply a Large Clutch or something pretty basic. It came in a bunch of bright colors as well. As for the exact color name I really cannot remember. (I odn't believe the clutches were ever released in soft calf)

Here is a pic of one of the bags from the same collection, however -- this is the cornflower blue hobo (w/brown suede lining). It's from the same season as the Clutch was released

jun3machina · Jun 30th, 2009, 12:36 PM

thanks iluv!! i managed to find the hobo and figured it was probably from the same line. this is the slightly stiffer leather, like that orange dr. satchel i had right?? i would think it'd be nice and durable for a clutch. i'll take pics when it shows up. thanks hon!!

missmish · Jul 2nd, 2009, 07:12 PM
