just tracked my package... it will get delivered to my Freight service on Monday... so hopefully I will get that package sent to me in Canada by end of next week!!!! I can't wait to reveal and share with you ladies!

Congrats on your bag and on getting such a great deal! The bag is primarily constructed in black suede with patent patches sewn onto it, but the black suede is very forgiving. I've had mine (the plain black patent version) caught out in a downpour and someone even once spilled an entire martini on the bar where it was sitting and it survived fine after being blotted and airing out.

You will want to be careful with the flap, though, because it is calf hair and you'll see some bald patches over time if you rub against it too much. I would recommend hand carrying it or hanging it in the crook of your arm rather than wearing it on your shoulder so that it won't be rubbing against your arm or body as much.

Congrats again, I'm sure it will look stunning on you!

Yay!! I'm so happy for you! You really are branching out from MM and I couldn't be more ecstatic. There are just so many designers and great bags out there. Glad to hear you're diversifying your already stunning collection.

That bag is wonderful!! I have the "Miroslava" Muse II and they truly are awesome looking bags. You wear it very well!!!! Two thumbs up!
