Thanks hun!!! I know, my friends are always saying I have the best luck when I go to TJ's! The best time to go is when the seasons are changing and they get a new shipment of Italian bags....in fact sometimes they advertise about getting the bags, so next time you hear or see the ad, go early!! Don't give up yet! :)

Antonia, I love your gorgeous Abro bag!!!!

I have a wine RM Nikki on the way. Also I've been cheating on Tano with my most recent BE sand python purchase this month. I pretty much flit between brands. I have my favorites but I like to explore different brands for different reasons. Tano is more casual for me and in rain, etc.

Currently I've been wearing my BE fuschia SMM.

I've had my eyes on a soft croc, shiny leather, and patent Dooney & Bourke in the Chiara style. Also I am looking towards getting another Ignes since they have superb customization (can lengthen handles, add initials, add an extra long strap, pick your hw, etc.) and the price is fabulous! I recently received a customized suede lined (lusciously soft!!!!) Mini Sofia for about $250 including shipping and customs! Definitely a steal.

I'm gonna have to check out TJ MAXX. I've been told that TJM is hit or miss and that some stores are nicer than others depending on the city/area. The one in my city is not considered one of the nicer ones but there is a decent one in the city I commute to. I'm thinking that I should have looked at TJM for mom's bday. I just bought her a plain brown Fossil Tote (doesn't count as a non-Tano purchase since it isn't mine!) that I thought was kind of overpriced. I would have bought her a Tano but mom is "plain Jane" and she thinks my Tano bags are "racy".

I've looked at those bags as well. I like the big Sofia and would be interested if it came in a fuschia with silver hardware (can they customize this?). However it needs to wait atleast until Fall because I still have my Tano and RM preorder coming.

Definitely check them out. They can customize hardwear and color of leather and they do have various pink shades of leather.

The best person to e-mail is Ignacio. I wouldn't email anyone besides him. He is very thorough and can answer all of your questions and send you pictures of any color you want. He seriously takes his time to right a thorough response & I've been very impressed by him. Right now in the Ignes thread, a look book is being compiled to send around to those in the US.

Plus ask for the first time buyers discount for 15% off with all inclusive extras built in. It is really a great deal. They will have a Midi Sofia coming out soon. I have enough big bags which is why I chose the mini for my first Ignes to test the brand out in my first patent bag. The suede is really TDF. I have a gryson and it does not compare! So soft and plush. I will now not order any future ignes bags without the suede. Totally love it.

Also they do have 25% off this month on a listing which has not been posted yet. However, it is pre-made bags that they already have.

I love Ignes because you can customize and don't need a bunch of people to jump on the same bandwagon like Ignes and can take it one bag at a time.

I know about waiting. I am thinking of getting an Ormala for my next bag. I also like the Chiara and he will be posting some midi sizes come fall. I have to wait as well since I'll have the tano and rm coming this month I have enough bags for summer for sure!

Thank you! I'm excited about this. Hope I can wait until Fall (usually I cave in). I will visit the Ignes thread!

Thank you TygerKitty! And thanks everyone for the compliments. The leather sort of reminds me tad of (dare I say) Balenciaga leather, although it's a little more shiney, it's got that distressed look going on and I think it will break in nicely.
