Hi all,
While I know I should never have allowed beaver to subscribe me to the sofa this year... I did... So of course, I've fallen off. Already. Yes there it is I've said it. In my defence, I'm trying to find a job and looking for work while having TPF on in the background=(no jobs+temptation)+ cold weather=more bags
I think I'm a mathematical genius by looking at the above! Anyway, I was looking for the carter camera bag as I'd seen it in store and actually really liked it, and then sammiantha did a reveal so obviously I had to go and hunt one down.
Whilst doing the usual manic calling round outlets I came across one that was a "catwalk collection ltd ed" that I couldn't find any ref to anywhere. So I did what any "sane" TPFer would do and ordered it and the birds best (midnight sold out) to see which one would be best,...
They arrived today in a beautiful old school bag with lovely baubles on it!
Anyway, after taking them both out, I'm torn.... The ltd edition isn't leather all over but some sort of nylon fabric. The reason I don't know what fabric is that there were no care tags in the bag! I called up and they had a look at the other bags and advised that NONE of them had care tags?!? Also, the hardware wasn't protected with plastic covering the way it was on the birdsnest. I mentioned this as well and as there are only a couple left they advised that it could be a display model. I'm ok with this but am a bit miffed I suppose!
Its more expensive than it's khaki coloured sister so my question is this- which of the 2 is more wearable in your opinions, and do you think the nylon fabric will be durable?? I wear a lot of dark colours, but do like bright bold, metallic colours as well (as if u didn't know!)
Here's some pics... Answers on a TPF postcard please...
