Thanks for all the birthday wishes ladies! Here are the pics!





This is pretty accurate of the color, especially the close up pic of the hardware. It's a very dark purple with a slight glaze to it. I still find the leather soft though, it's definitely not hard or crunchy as I find some glazed leathers to be. Don't mind my puppy pushing the bag with her nose, she is curious:)

It definitely is quite dark, but it might just grow on you. It really is gorgeous! Hope you love yours!

The color is a lot darker than I kind of pictured in my head...But still GORGEOUS color... It looks like black but has purple sheen to it...Interesting.

Anyway, thanks for sharing the photo! Congratulations!!!!

I actually don't think it looks black. It is quite dark, but in person you can definitely tell it's purple and not black.

Wow, if I didn't read the title I would have thought its black. Lovely color though, hopefully you can get a pic in the sunlight.

I'm not in love with the color. I was expecting it to look more similar to the one on the LB website. I think I'm returning mine so one of you lucky girls can snatch it up.

~~Happy Birthday, xmelissax!!~~ Your Violet MAM is awesome! I love that it's super dark (it looks almost black, therefore "neutral" and goes with everything), but it's not black, it's VIOLET!! How cool is that?!
