Last Saturday was a great day as these two babies came home with me. Gold Togo B30 GHW and gold CDC GHW 
We’re twins on this. Can’t wait for some chillier weather.
Yay twins! it's one of the softest wool I ever felt!
Wow! what a gorgeous B! congrats! Perfect matching CDC too!Last Saturday was a great day as these two babies came home with me. Gold Togo B30 GHW and gold CDC GHW

Thank you for the tip @periogirl28! I'd been meaning to make a connection at my local store, and a lovely SA is going to try to find me this shawl in very similar cw. Thanks!!
She also helped me look at enamel bangles, and we both agreed I had to go home with this one, as it happened to perfectly match the scarf i wore today!
Went in to place my SO and left with these goodies in addition. I'm already loving the Watch upgrade and I can't wait to try the twillies on both my Blue Zanzibar and Vert Vertigo bags!
Ohhhhh! gorgeous colours! So pretty!Thank you for the tip @periogirl28! I'd been meaning to make a connection at my local store, and a lovely SA is going to try to find me this shawl in very similar cw. Thanks!!

Unfortunately, the bag was unable to come home with me after I paid for it.
STORY TIME: as my sa brought out the bag, it was still unopened in its original plastic seal. When she unveiled this holy grail mini c, we noticed some sticky residue. It was sticky with some fibers of the dust bag stuck to it— it honestly reminded me of gum. She talked to the manager because we were unable to rub it off. They reassured me that they can fix it without any additional cost to me. I obviously couldn’t pass up such an amazing leather, so I said I would proceed with the purchase.
They are first sending the bag to a local leather repair shop to see if they can fix it. That is expected to take 3-4 weeks. Boxcalf is such a delicate leather, so we are unsure if the local artisan can fix it without any abrasions. If not, then we will send the bag to Paris. If Paris is unable to fix it there, they will remake the bag especially for me and send it to US. That is expected to take even longer, possibly 3-4 months. I asked if Paris can just send me an already-made box mini C, but she said no. For some reason they will have to remake the bag from scratch. Possibly because it’s a push offer?
ANYWAYS, sorry for the long story. What a roller coaster of emotions today.

So gorgeous! Sorry to hear about the whole situation but on the bright side at least you know you will be getting it eventually. Good luck!
Oh no! So sorry to hear this. I hope they can fix it for you quickly! It's a beautiful bag and will be worth the wait though!
Oh no!
So very sorry that this happened to you! It must be so terrible to have to wait for so long! Your C is very beautiful and it IS worth the wait, but I hope they will be able to send it back to you sooner!
