OHHHHHH this bag is TO DIE FOR! Picked mine up (in Chili) today at Nordstrom. Took a few pics. I'd describe it as the color of chili in the bowl... that brownish red... NOT the color of chili beans. You really have to get it under the light to see the red. Maybe mahogany would be a good term for it? The main compartment is teal (!!!) inside. The other two compartments are a rich tan cotton/canvas. Side view reminds me a bit of the Blake bag, but this bag is larger. Hard to get a shot without the flash reflecting too much, so I took a few from different angles. FYI... just FIVE Hudsons left in the company, per my SA... so hop on them, if you want one!
Pics of my new MJ Hudson bag!!!

Nordstrom MacArthur Center in Norfolk, VA. But they had to special order it. Call SA Victoria at 757-314-1111 and ask for her if you want one... she knows which store had them. She said it was the main Seattle store, but that the store number wasn't theirs... so when she called to have it sent in, they told her it was a web store within their store or something... but just this morning she looked on the computer while I was there, and there were just five left. She said everyone is scrambling to get this bag. Tysons didn't get any. I think she said Pentagon City didn't get any... for SURE she said this will be the in-demand bag that will disappear fast!
Not like patent... but sort of shiny. It isn't icky obnoxious shiny, though. And it's SOFT and not stiff. Definitely structured, but not in a hard way. Does that make sense? If you could have seen the commotion in the bag dept. when I picked it up today, you'd have thought Jennifer Aniston had just arrived. ALL the SAs were going nuts, the store manager apparently saw the bag and now wants one for herself, and they took that pic of me wearing the bag before I left... crazy! It was like paparazzi!
, and you got to take the bag beauty home with you!!
Did get measurements... 14 x 10 x 6. It is BIG... and seems bigger due to the fact you can't carry it over the shoulder.
My large black bowler is being shipped Friday, and I'll make a decision... but I am afraid it's too big, yes. If it could be worn on the shoulder it would be fine, but by hand... GIGANTIC. So we'll see, once I take the stuffing out and try it with my stuff in it.
