I am in LOVE with the color. Photo from official RM site. GO GO GO!

The one you want is the color Green....and its AHMAZING!

I just got the MAM in Night Blue and part of the reason I fell in love with it is because the leather is TDF, so soft and slouchy and touchable. It felt really different than the other colors.

For me its all about the touch and feel of the leather. I go for 2 kinds usually. One is a tougher skin that I know will age like a fine wine and the others are just yummy from the start, like butter! Its all in the touch babe! :)

Ohhhh and I was thinking 'blue-grey'?! Thanks Rebecca!

It's a MAB?

Ok! I am trying to answer all the question so let me know if I don't. I tried attached some preview pics of the steady and yes it has a longer handle (1/2 inch) so it will go over your shoulder with a coat. That comes out in January. Its not working with the file I have, so I will keep trying.

As for the tassles, resort comes with short tassels with 3 studs and totally cute. Spring is all custom hardware, so my first custom zipper pull will be on each bag, sans tassels!

Enjoy!

Rebecca

Rebecca (or anyone else who may know), do you currently have any stores in Vancouver, Canada that are selling your bags?

This is the exact reason I put off getting a RM MA for so long. Those damned tassles. I even took all the tassles off my Balenciaga because they were annoying and my cats could not be trusted. So I used Charms instead. So when I saw the new studded MA's I had to get one right away. I should have my Emerald Mini soon. Seems AE is not being as fast at shipping as they usually are.

My matinee arrived today and I can only say one thing: Rebecca, you are a goddess.

I

it -- it's the most gorgeous bag I've ever laid eyes on (well at least til I receive my MA, after then I'll let you guys know :P) and it's inspired me to write this:

My Matinee,
Glazed espresso and military suede
To die for.

Haha I know not very creative but

Now I don't feel so bad when I catch myself unconsciously petting my Matinee when it's nearby! Hee hee...

When you say "custom hardware", do you mean we get choices and we get to choose? I would love to own a resort MA w/the studs...but then later, i would want to go back to the tassels--I love the tassels on my mam.

BTW, I got my gold chain today!

Rebecca, thank you for thinking of us here and for this sweet gesture!

missypoo · Dec 19th, 2007, 05:08 PM

Received my chain and dustbag today!!! Can't wait to put it on my MAM bag : ) Thanks so much Rebecca!!

I'd look at the regular size. It's not AS big as you think.

Just a suggestion! I'm still looking for the mini for you though!

WOW, here is where everyone is hanging out... don't know how I missed the "HOT SPOT"
