really cute bags i came across on ShopBop today, after reading their newsletter.

has anyone heard of them before? or own one of their bags? i wonder how good the leather quality is.

I have seen the Malabab bags w/the chain straps (shown on Shopbop) at Barney's C:huh:p and the leather is just awesome.....nice n' thick......without being too heavy.
I only wish that these chains were adjustable (they are NOT) - I would buy one in a heartbeat!
As for the other bags - I think the leather is different, but based on the quality of their other bags, I would say "go for it".
Any chance of calling ShopBop and asking them for their guidance?
Sorry this isn't much info, but hope it helps.
 
I'm seriously considering getting the Medium Carlota (the first pic) in Plum... It's in my shopping cart... yikes... what to do...:sweatdrop:
 
Ahh! I love these bags! I realize this thread was May of last year, but I just discovered them in January so I was excited that someone had also heard of them. The first pic, I also wanted it in plum, and I had the money for it and I was all ready to buy it (oh maybe I should include that it was on SALE for like $130...amazing deal) but my parents needed me to lend them all my spending money. (oh, btw I'm only 16 and I don't have a job just babysitting and stuff)
 
Someone must have returned one because there is one left... What do you guys think?

After reading this thread, I went to check them out on shopbop and couldnt resist buying a couple of the sale bags.

I got this one in blue for $114:
