older bags, older leather, older colors

Glad to have you back- I missed your posts, both of you esile and chigirl:smile: !

i'm still lurking around once in a while. there's so many new bbag fans, but nice to see the old ones too. :yes:

first, i'm inlove with your pumpkin! i've been carrying my 04 khaki and 04 anis alot lately. the 04 leather is thick and smooshy. i have yet to touch an 01, but i bet it is even nicer!:drool:

LP, thanks for the insight. in some strange way, i'm almost thankful that the new bbags don't have the old leather... much better for bank account!:whistle:
 
I don't have any 04 bags but I have two from s/s 05 and I can definitely tell the difference in the leather.........here's my teal

ooh! *claps hands and twirls* my favorite topic, old bags. I've had a few new ones but have had to sell them cause they were too new.

lilac 03 (and I have a blue 03 on it's way-couldn't resist)
caramel 03
marron 04
dark turq 04
black 04 (best leather ever!)

fayden, you have only one 04 bag, but it's one of the best 04 colors... the rose is such a knockout. I got a rose flat clutch recently and planned to sell my rose makeup to make up (heh!) for it... but I'm finding it very hard to actually go through with it, so I may just have to live with 2...

sunspark, your collection is looking great! I :heart: the 03 caramel!
 
I couldn't resist I had to post about my favourite topic. My first Bbag was an 06 black city. After aquiring an 04 seafoam and an 04 marron first, I noticed the BIG difference with the leather and now I can't get enough of the older leathers. Here's a pic of the seafoam...I'll post a pic of the marron as soon as I get back from NM.:yes:
