It must be white gold then :biggrin: Yellow gold looks very nice and very festive like everyday luxury. White gold looks more understated and suits my everyday look better. I love flower theme in jewellery and their frivole collection is just stunning. I'm considering getting one by the end of the year if I'm good at staying on ban island. Only exception is Garden Party in gold or a Chanel mini in tan.


Thanks for sharing the background story. I hope he can find a way to make his business profitable for his fans through Kickstarter.
I use to think that wg was more casual but after wearing a lot of yg for awhile now I find it more casual, especially with diamonds. Both golds are beautiful and I love the frivole design - wearing my earrings now!

The leather on your Drag is so yummy! Is it hard to keep it from scratching, though? It looks like the dreaded Box... but maybe that's just from where I'm sitting?
It is box leather, but I don't feel like there are many issues regarding scratching it!
Box is the one leather H can bring back to it's glory through their Spa; I personally don't feel like it scratches easily and I don't baby my purses… this has been bumped into the snow blower or the car more times than I can count and still looks amazing. It does have a small scratch but it's barely noticeable - and thats the beauty of Box again. I'll take a picture of it later to show you!
On the other hand though, I have never given it a major scratch, nothing has ever gone below the surface.
 
For @ElainePG
This is on the back of the Drag - and it’s literally the worst of the 3 (yes - just 3) scratches.

I do keep it in its dustbag when I’m not carrying it - well when I’m not planning on it because at the moment it’s in the cubby by the back door ready to go right now. [emoji173]️

I also condition the leather 2 or 3 times a year, like I do all of my purses.

Oh, that's not bad at all! I don't own any Box leather (well, I don't own ANY Hermès bags, as far as that goes!) but on tPF I keep hearing that it's so worrisome. If yours can survive your rugged Midwestern winters, up to and including a snowblower incident, I'd say it's fairly carefree! :smile:

This is my new-to-me Chanel Tri-Color CF in M/L from the Paris-Edinburgh collection! Colors aren't very accurate in my photos due to bad lighting, it's a bit lighter (burgundy, dark grey...) Not everyone's cuppa tea but I find it very easy to match on my clothes and looks lovely with my all-black outfits. Very easy to wear compared to my plain grey CF, I feel!
 
I'm such a fan of your little panda and would love one myself!
Took a look at them and oh my lord! $450! but so irresistably cute. Also love the little boston terrier charm they have on sale right now, very very cute as well but love that the panda is leather.

Oh my gosh I didn't know they had leather versions of the dogs! I'm dead! I want one so badly now. Where did you get them on discount?
And thanks for the tip, I agree the metal would be quite heavy, I hadn't thought of that.

well, it's a very long story, my first dog i purchased in the boutique on sale, then i stupidly lost it, but by then the unsold sales stock was moved out and they were shipped to the outlets.
I had contacts of a couple of US outlets SAs, but even though they had them, i could not purchase because i am outside of US. Bummer. But, at the same time i was maniacally checking all re-selling sites and to my endless joy TRR got one! i placed an order and it cost me total 120+/- USD delivered.
Panda is my lucky ebay find, i made an offer, which the Seller accepted, and it cost me under 100$ delivered (i paid in Euro).
If you are in US, call outlets (Cabazon had the dogs charms for sure) and they can take orders online, you might still find it ;)

I find burgundy type colours so easy to match with black too! Beautiful bag - enjoy!
