I went to Prada yesterday -- just looking! I wore my new, dark brown Miu Miu Coffer as I'm a bit in love with it right now. Well, I was pleasantly amazed at all of the SAs in the store who came over and complimented my bag. None of them had seen one IRL bfore; a couple of them were almost as ecstatic as I am over it! It was really funny. They all asked to touch it and two of them even tried it on. Very funny!
Anyway, I tried sooo many bags including every Gauffre on display. No, I didn't buy -- I so wanted to but I can't do the guilt trip I'd have over TWO high-end purchases in a month. My favorite of the day was the black napa Gauffre satchel (east/west). LOVE this bag! Not too big, not too small, absolutely gorgeous leather and I love te buckle details and I think the black satchel could go from day to night. AND I need a black bag. I'm in the midst of a dilemma between the Prada satchel and a Chanel. I really want a more classic, timeless piece and i really did think the black Gauffre satchel was elegant when I tried it yesterday.
I love all of your bag pics here!! I'm new to this forum, but not new to handbags, so I'm really appreciating all the great pics and info! I'll add in a pic of my Coffer as soon as I figure out how to add a pic!
