MiniMouse - has lavender Rosy arrived yet - love lavender so very envious of you!

Minimouse · Sep 25th, 2009, 03:02 AM

MiniMabel, unfortunately lavender Rosemary hasn't arrived yet. She left the States on 9th September via Express Mail and should have only taken 5 days to a week to arrive, but still nothing. I'm trying not to panic since it has been Ramadan over here for the past month and we've just had a 5 day Saudi holiday, so tomorrow the Post Office reopens. I will be on the phone to them in the morning.

I mustn't panic, I must remain calm, lavender Rosemary will be worth the wait (and had better not have got lost!).

ratrat · Sep 25th, 2009, 03:05 AM

Ohh Minimouse fingers crossed, it must be waiting for you quietly in the post office!

Looking forward to another Rosie reveal once it's arrived.... whole family pics will be nice, with all twins all over again...!!

maplecottage · Sep 25th, 2009, 04:11 AM

Oh wow Mini, how exciting, so how many rosies will that bring your collection up to?

You will be pleased to know Butterscotch Hobo found a new home :)

Looking forward to your new addition, hopefully it's just got caught up and won't be too far now.

have I missed something? IS this the Berry Rosie or yet another one?

Minimouse · Sep 25th, 2009, 04:53 AM

Tiree, you haven't missed anything. This IS the berry one, but I don't think there's an official Mulberry berry colour, I think it's actually lavender. I'm truly hoping Rosie will arrive tomorrow, otherwise I will start to get a little worried. Even though it's insured, I'd rather have the bag!

Oh dear Maple, this is embarrassing....
2 x black (1 pebbly, 1 smooth)
2 x olive (1 pebbly, 1 smooth)
1 x chocolate (lightly pebbled)
1 x Berry/Lavender on the way

Just need a ginger Rosemary to complete my collection and hopefully I'll be satisfied (famous last words).

Maple, congrats on rehoming butterscotch hobo - now that was a gorgeous bag.

Ratrat, I'll take a family photo once the new addition arrives.

tireebabe · Sep 25th, 2009, 05:07 AM

^^ no oak?

Minimouse · Sep 25th, 2009, 05:13 AM

Thanks Tiree, my embarrassment escalates since I did forget 1 x oak (pebbly)

tireebabe · Sep 25th, 2009, 05:21 AM

lol, u ought to be ashamed of urself. I'd never buy so many of one style of bag (much)

(bearing in mind 2 roxy's are missing from my photo collection)

Minimouse · Oct 7th, 2009, 05:26 AM

Can you believe it, it's taken a whole month to get here. Express Mail should have only taken 5-7 days. This week I really was starting to get worried, hoping I wouldn't have to do an INR on ebay. I'm so glad I was patient. It's as gorgeous as in the ebay photo (below), which is a very accurate representation of the colour.

However, before you all scream at me for photos, I'm posting these on the basis that the colour isn't showing up quite right, it's not as pink, it's like the raspberry/heather colour in the ebay photo above. I'm delighted with this bag. It doesn't look or feel like it's ever been used, it's got that 'new' feel to it and the gorgeous heady Mulberry leather smell. I'll try and take more photos over the weekend which hopefully will show up the colour more accurately.

As soon as I got Rosie I took a pic (in my scruffs) and then another just before I headed off for work at 6.30am this morning, with Rosie in tow, of course!

Sorry, I know I can't match the modeling prowess of Flossie and Klp who always look so terrific, but I figure any pics are better than nothing.

blueberryuk · Oct 7th, 2009, 05:29 AM

Fab fab fab mini!!

You & the bag look fabulous & your outfit works perfectly!! How about a rosemary family pic sometime soon??

bluecat_00 · Oct 7th, 2009, 05:30 AM

What do you mean mini you look fabulous. Rosie is beautiful too. Worth waiting for but my goodness you must have been getting fidgety. I wish I could get on with rosie whenever I see pics like that.

Minimouse · Oct 7th, 2009, 05:38 AM

I'll try and get a family picture together at the weekend. My smooth black Rosie headed over to my sister 'on loan' this week (I wasn't generous enough to say she could keep it, I have to get used to the idea of living without it first).

I was getting seriously worried about my new addition, I was beginning to think there was someone in this world with my Rosie over their shoulder! Thank goodness I remained patient. The seller was worried too and very appreciative that I didn't kick up a fuss. I am going to leave her 5 stars for shipping because she shipped it immediately and it's not her fault the postal system screwed up.

Poppy bagfan · Oct 7th, 2009, 06:15 AM

Well done Mini....you and your Rosy are both gorgeous! I love that outfit and the matching bag....well worth the wait but you were so patient you deserved it to be perfect.

Will really look forward to seeing the pics....have you seen the Croxley thread about the roxys?

mssw157 · Oct 7th, 2009, 06:26 AM

Lovely lovely lovely Mini! You've got such a beautiful collection of Rosies now! Matches your outfit perfectly!!!!
