Spring/Summer 2008 - Call from MJ SA!!

[AbbytheBT]

Okay ladies -

Just received a call from my favorite MJ SA in the San Francisco boutique (Tiffany) and here's some updates on the new stuff:

Spring/Summer 2008

Soft Calf Classics colors:

Merlot –A bit redder than Bordeaux
Rose – medium pink
Navy – Medium blue , not “midnight”, not “bright”
Putty (dark grey) – has dark glazing (unlike Resort 07 purpley grey with white glazing)
Brown –
Chalk – This is a bright white. Brighter than the resort Yogurt

****No Black in the Soft Calf lines for Spring Summer 2008

Blakes: The soft calf comes with the “knot” on handles and NO SUEDE. All lining is now that coated linen. All same color. Also, no suede in zip clutches. It's her understanding that MJ is discontinuing suede in their bags/SLGs.

“No knot” Blakes:
Acid tangerine
Also available in patent colors with nickel hardware

SA Tiffany: (415)362-6500 works Weds to Sunday.

Side note:
No remaining black Christys in MJ system (a friend looking for one so I checked)

She's sending me some pics later today of the Merlot and grey which I'll post.

No more suede?? Not even in the soft calf line?? I really hope he reconsiders. Looks like I'll be collecting a lot more of the older bags.

Yup, I'm with you on that. That's one of the reasons why I liked MJ bags.

The merlot and putty sound pretty though.

Wow, I really need to get my hands on a Blake *bordeaux please* with the suede lining.. otherwise, that Merlot sounds tempting, but I don't like how the knot looks...

Abby-

Thanks for the MJ S/S 2008. Wanted to let you know that I saw a black Christy at Nordies Stonestown.

 

[AbbytheBT]

I talked to Gabby at the Mercer St MJ and she said NO suede!!! Ack!!!!!!!!I love the suede, what will we do? Also the bags are a whole lot lighter, she said the leather is not as lush, it is like it is thinner?? on the soft calf? No worries about wanting something new!! I like the suede!!!!

 

[muggles]

Where is the pic of the merlot mp?

 

[muggles]

Gabby is sending me the large merlot MP, to consider I should have it in the morning will take pics IRL before I probably have to send it back, because I did not even ask the price??Not to mention hubby will divorce me if he finds out!!!

^Very nice!!! The handle seems flatter too like the Christy. I know some people don't like the round strap of the mp's. Thanks for posting!!

 

[Coach Superfan]

Is this close to the Pomegranate color? Its a beautiful red...

 

[muggles]

Just kill me now!! I get that bag tomorrow and I know I will want to keep it!!and I have no idea of the price!!!
