Yep! I think I'm going to be a bit early... I get out at 5:30 and I'm only a couple of long a** blocks away.

By the way, the Lex doesn't get much talk, but it is really cute.

Hey I grew up in Tampa.. hence the picture of the Tampa "skyline" in my sig.... Isn't it pretty!

I saw someone a couple days ago with a Saddle Nikki at Walmart in ATLANTA.

I haven't seen but a handful of RM girls in ATL- but i really tried to follow her so i could get a closer look! I was with someone, so i didn't want to seem weird by chasing her down! I was sooo shocked. None of our places carry RM so it had to have been a TPFer.

Desi... too bad it wasn't me! :)

Desi · May 6th, 2008, 04:18 PM

Haha we both have our pics on TPF, so i'm sure we'd recognize each other. HAHA and it wouldn't be weird if we were stalking each other down.

OOOH grey? Pretty!
No, the one I saw was a black basketweave with blue zippers. We were both at the security check point. She was really surprised I knew who made her purse!

Fendi84NJ · May 6th, 2008, 05:52 PM

Still haven't seen one!!

Most Jersey girls are obsessed with logos and don't want anything that doesn't have C, LV or G plastered all over it. I used to be one of them! This forum has helped me see the light and love adding some all leather bags to my collection. I am still waiting to meet my Jersey RM twin...I know there has to be someone out there.

When I finally see someone I am 100% going up to them.

qcescada · May 6th, 2008, 06:32 PM

Okay - I thought I saw one at the security checkpoint in Atlanta. It was a jade-looking green MAB with patent or shinier leather flap, trim, etc - does that exist??

I was about ten ppl behind the lady carrying it. And I'm sorry to say, it was so full that I definitely understand why ppl think it looks like luggage. If I got one, it would be for luggage-related uses. I was hoping to get through security quickly enough to stalk the bag a bit more but she must have caught the shuttle while I was in line:(

I saw a woman in Philadelphia last weekend with a black MAM in Anthropologie.. She then spotted me with my Hazelnut MAM and we stood there staring at each other for a minute recognizing each others bags then went on our merry ways. This woman was with he Husband, Child and big a** dog! haha.

We had a short MAM stand off! It was excellent : )

Did it look like this? I believe this is the only two tone GREEN bag RM has out.

Haha ladies. Beware of me. If i see you with an RM i don't have, i'm going to knock ya upside the head and steal it from you hehehe

starryviolet · May 6th, 2008, 09:06 PM

I saw a girl sitting outside a table at a bar with a white/brown basketweave MAB in LA.

Twin Mom · May 6th, 2008, 09:37 PM

I don't have one yet but if I spot one in ATL I'll try to get up the courage to say hi. If I'm with my DH, he'll think I'm nuts. LOL.

Desi · May 6th, 2008, 09:50 PM
