i would not get a pale, metallic lamb bag. that sounds like a disaster waiting to happen lol. lamb is known for being delicate and prone to scratching, metallics usually show wear quite easily. i would get a dark lamb color if i really wanted lamb or go with an aged calf. i would suggest the pale gold aged calf reissue for a more special occasion bag.
Thanks for your feedback - so appreciated! So metallic lamb is harder to maintain than regular lamb, then? I called my boutique and they have distressed calf reissue in silver with shw - I think that it's like this one that deedeedor just brought home:

Thoughts on this vs. the m/l pale gold?
