So, I caved. Great price, a style (flap bag from another maker) I'd had in the past, and I love how luscious and silky the leather is. I haven't seen a reveal for this line before, so here you go! (Thanks, J, for your help in identifying this beauty!)

Presenting the Nero Fuzzy Napa Cross Body Bag, from early F/W 11:

Few more with the requisite modeling shots - I have the strap on the shortest setting here - I'll probably carry it more as a shoulder bag than a crossbody bag, but not sure yet if I'm going to hold on to this one, it's a bit big for me...

The detail, as always with a Bottega Veneta bag, is absolutely exquisite. The beauty! I love how BV can design a bag with such minute detail that the eyes always have something on which to feast. And this bag is so lightweight! OMG. Sigh.
 
WOW! what a beauty!!! I love the combination of smooth leather, weave, and strands of leather! I think the size is perfect, but I favor larger bags.

It is the same width as my Cervo Hobo... strangely enough :biggrin:

India, what a nice BV find. You wear her well.
Oh it most definitely is - I have to adjust to the east/west layout, that's all -

It's very pretty
I love a saddle bag
I love the weaving on the bottom
very pretty bag
use it in good health India
Thank you, SS. What I think is interesting - the 'cell phone pocket' is actually the correct size! :lol:

Pretty and versatile on you
Thank you.
 
not sure yet if I'm going to hold on to this one, it's a bit big for me...

I know you want to keep the collection simple and small but what I do like about this one is that it is definitely dressier than your Cervo hobo. And it's a decidedly different look. That option might be nice to have.

As for scale, yes I see it's a larger proportion. But I don't think it overwhelms you and I have to say, it looks bad a** on you as a cross body.

Let us know what you decide.
