Default My new gorgeous smooshy puddle of leather BBW

So recently, a lovely lady on the board helped me get the BBW MAB with new hardware that I had been lusting after but was no longer available on any sites. I got it on Friday and I love, love, love it! The leather is pebbled yet so smooshy and soft at the same time. The basket weave detail is gorgeous, and I love how the new hardware complements the bag and gives it a chic, slightly dressier look. This is my first MAB, I have 2 MAM's and was ready to move on to the bigger size and I think this is the perfect bag to have in a larger size. Anyways, this may be a bit old news now as there have been several picture posts about this bag in the past few weeks, but I love mine and had to share. Thanks to my BBW MAB tPF angel:)



The bag is empty in the pics, so you get to see it in all it's smooshy, puddly leather glory!

My fiance who is usually appalled by my bag obsession actually said "Wow, that one is nice. I actually like it." when I pulled this one out. It was a miracle,haha.
