Hi ladies! i have not posted in months, very busy busy with work.. got to earn that bag money! Heard you guys were naughty while i was gone!

I just had to share pics of these super duper dream bags that i never ever thought i would be able to find.. and lo and behold.. Here they are! all mine. I guess good things to come to those who wait. I am super picky about the condition of my bbags, so i was giving up hope of finding these two in mint condition,, but here they are.. drum roll please!!

miss 02 flat brass classic..

and miss 03 lilac city!!

and let me say.. the lilac is so much better in person.. the color is amazing. sometimes pinkish, sometimes sort of grey, then purplish. and in incandecent light she looks neutral.. beautiful! i am so honored to have these two in my collection. I shot these at my studio in my light booth to try to capture the true color and texture of each.. working on a little bbag photo project. but had to share these with ladies who would truly appreciate them.. my friends think i am nuts! enjoy!

thanks seahorse! i work with fashion photographers all day.. so i guess i learned a thing or two about taking pictures! i am currently taking photos like these of my collection, so hopefully soon i will have the project together. it really shows off the leather texture nice..and no flash, so the colors are pretty accurate..

how fun, toni, my bf's a photographer too. he said he would took pics of my bags some day :P
 
The most beautiful flat brass I have ever seen, congrats toni!!!!!!!

thanks panda! that one i nabbed off ebay on christmas day. it had a handle repair, and i think thats why other people were afraid of it. but it really its super soft and amazing. If the seller did not mention the repair in the listing, i would have never known. it looks great. the back is slightly more textured than the front, and i like that about this bag. i shot some picks of my 05 back first with this bag for size comparisons.. the flat brass is slightly longer and wider, so it holds more stuff.
