I think I went a little overboard this Thanksgiving. In trying to find the perfect black bag, I ended up with two. Of course I had instant buyers remorse right after hitting enter, and even further remorse when I opened my holiday booty.
First up is the Alex Zipper Medium Tote, which I probably shouldn't have thought of buying in the first place, since I already have two LP Medium totes. They are very similar, with exception of the braided handle, the tassel/string thingies, & the smaller top. In any case, I'm starting to appreciate it; especially after I got nice complement from a lady in a elevator.
For Reference, I'm 5'7
Next up is the full size Treesje Exposed Stud. I'm more of a Tote girl, not hobo, so I already should have thought twice, but I couldn't resist after seeing a tpf'r modeling pic. It's much wider in person, and didn't do the nice slouching thing it did for the previous model I saw. But after I moved things around, it slouched it better and molded to my body better. I would say that this is hobo sits better on my shoulder than the HH Havanas do. Still on the fence w/ this one, but I have to admit I don't have anything else like it in my closet.
I purchased the LP from MOB, during their 45% off Thanksgiving sale. Always great ordering from them, b/c my stuff usually comes about 2 days after I purchase. The Treesje came from Aster Alice, and purchased for about 60% off. They took a bit more time to ship, but was pristine when I received it.
