Gorgeous Kelly, congrats.

Absolutely stupendous!! And your story . . . I had no idea it has been such a journey for you. But then, the Docride Angel IS so often the one to swoop down and present the bag of one's dreams.

Wear it in fabulous health!

Love your story, your red Kelly and of course your lovely puppy.

One word for the bag : perfection! And your doggie is a cutie !

Love your story...and your Kelly! Furry friend isn't bad either.... Many congrats

Thanks! And I have to admit, I do love the dog even more than the bag! He knows how cute he is and milks it to get what he wants!

I'm surprised none of the cats joined in on the reveal ... I think they got offended that it wasn't all about them and took the night off!

Great story. And a gorgeous kelly!! Many many congrats

Thanks, Chincac! And thank you again for posting all the photos of your lovely reds -- it was truly helpful!

 

[catsinthebag]

WOW!

This bag is really stunning! As you know I have a big lust for boxcalf AND rouge vif,so this is the perfect match! I agree on the fact that the retourne kelly is much more practical and it's possible to stuff in many more things (owning 3 sellier I KNOW this for experience). I am glad I helped you to choose, this bag is eye-catching, but in a good way. Not too much, not too understated. Lovely!

Aurelia, I can say that I now completely get your lust for Rouge Vif box. I'm not one who goes for a lot of glitz, but this bag just GLOWS. Thanks for your input and photos -- it was truly helpful, especially knowing you really USE your Boxcalf bags, they don't just sit on a shelf looking pretty!

Love your story!! Gosh! What a lovely Kelly. Seriously life should be lived! Love that red on you!

Thanks, Arabesques! Docride is an Angel indeed.

One thing I'm wondering, from others out there who have gotten their bags from her, what is your experience with the waterproofing treatment she does? I asked her to do the treatment for me before she shipped the bag, but I find I'm still hesitant to take the bag out when there's a chance of rain. I wouldnt go out intentionally in a downpour, of course -- but I do want to use this bag with relatively little fear. Can you tell me just how waterproof your bags are that have received this treatment? Thanks.
