First Shots of the Black Glitterati

Watson's Mom · Sep 3rd, 2008, 03:33 PM

She just arrived, and is a very deep and shiny black. All pictures are compared to my beaujolais Boogie. The straps are the exact same one on both purses. It's lined in a light purple color with a white label. The bag is more gathered and rounded at the bottom, but they are basically the same size. To be honest, there really isn't that much of a difference between them except for the side trim and the bottom!

Wow those are more similar than I thought they would be! Love black crunch leather!!!

Black crunch leather is sexy! That's a great looking bag...much better without the stuffing of the LB pics.

Lovely!!!!!!! The black crunch is just gorgeous!!! Congrats!

Great pics! I just especially love the beaujolais color, I've always wanted something in that Tano color.

Wow! I am lovin' the rock star edge to this bag! Love the double mini buckles near the bottom. Is the strap suede-lined like the Boogie?

Lovely! I love the look of crunch leather in black ....

Watson's Mom · Sep 3rd, 2008, 04:04 PM

yes, Crazy, it is. It's the exact strap, in width and length-- I compared them side by side.

So, what do you think of it on your shoulder compared to the Boogie? Does it seem to fit any differently? I was thinking of ordering one..but if the strap isn't really any longer..... hmmm

Watson's Mom · Sep 3rd, 2008, 04:20 PM

bgcutie, it fits about the same, it's just rounded on the bottom. I don't know if the differences make it worth ordering over a Boogie. If you have other Boogies and want something a little different, then I'd say go for it. If you are a huge Boogie fan (like me, who just can't seem to get enamored with any other Tano!!) then I'd say skip it. This is probably going back...hope that helps!!!!!

pursegal · Sep 3rd, 2008, 04:44 PM

hmm, i see mine going back now too - its too similar to the boogie - i would have thought it would have been larger - oh well - i mean for the price, just a black on black boogie then....

pursegal · Sep 3rd, 2008, 04:45 PM

i guess i see why it was cut to order only now... too similar to boogie ??

Oh, and thank you so much for the pics !!!!!!!!!!!!

I know I'm in the minority here but I actually like the looks of the Glitterati over the Boogie. (ducks)

^^WOW antonia you are one brave girl to say that!

Antonia · Sep 3rd, 2008, 05:37 PM

^^ I know, I probably lost everyone's friendship now! :( Especially Voodoo who loves her Boogies!! It's not that I don't love the Boogie, I just like the looks of the Glitterati a teensy bit more. (ducks again) LOL
