lol i love this idea for obssesed bow owners =)
very creative ^^
so heres my bow profile:
mughetto
old season
aug 2008
SF Saks (with my OWN cc of course..it wouldn't be as special if my mom got it for me cuz this is my FIRST 1000+ bag. Got it on the EGC event with additional 10%, apparently they didnt end up charging me tax..even if it was sent to NY from Cali..which is weirdd.. she only charged me shipping fee of 13 dollars..which is a bonus for me. i had to take on 2 jobs during summer with 3 summer courses to have extra spending money, Worst employer ever in BCBG so i quit)
i wish we had an actual gathering for all bow lovers!!

Ok, joining your thread ^^

INTRODUCTION

Color of YOUR bow: Mughetto
From what season is it from? Old/First season
When did you get it?: Unofficially 2~ months ago (mid june 08), officially three days ago (mid august).
How did you get it: Ever since I first stumbled across one on Ebay I've been disturbingly much in love with it, though that one sold out after 2 hours and therefore left me searching, (writing, calling you name it) all over the world for another one, but with no luck - they were all either non EU shipping or completely out of stock. When I later heard that my aunt were going to Paris on business I asked her to keep her eyes open for one, though I was not very optimistic since the only store there who actually had one in stock had it already reserved. But to my big surprise, she called me one week later just as I got out of the cinema after having watched SATC and I screamed out loud lol, she told me she nearly didn't find one, but she had asked all the SAs to double-check check their storages even though they all had told her they were sold out, and it paid off cause Printemps had one !!! :):) some poor woman who had reserved one problaby didn't get it and even though I'm so happy I cant help but feel a little sorry for her haha:\ And when I later this summer came to visit her in Finland (I live in Sweden) cause she didn't want to send it incase it would get lost in the mail, I got it :) She said it was an early birthday present to me so I didn't even have to pay her, it's just the most perfect birthday gift ever and I'll love her forever for it! <3
It's condition: Just a really small and hardly visable mark underneath.
