I have been eyeing this bag on the Gucci website for quite a while and finally decided to purchase it. I initially went to the site to order a 'summer' bag and was ready to buy the white tote with bamboo handles (also pictured), but it seemed kind of plain compared to this bag. The white bag also has three interior comparments, and I prefer the open interior of the tassled tote. Also a plus that the tassles are removable, if I want to carry it without (with certain outfits), and the fact it comes the Gucci script mirror in leather case was a small extra that I liked. It won't arrive for another week or so, and I was wondering if anyone here has the bag and if so, how they like it? Like most bag lovers I know, I already have a good number of black handbags in my collection which is why I had set out for a white bag but something about this one keeps drawing me to it. I called Gucci way back when this was first released and inquired if it was available in white and I was told it was only being offered in black and there were no plans for it to be made in white I do carry black bags in all seasons and I think the bamboo handles give this a bit of a summer look but also think the bag could be used year round. Thoughts???
