Congrats DarkS! I saw the lace duster clutch yesterday -- it's really gorgeous!
Fyi - if you plan to travel with it, don't put it in your carry on bag! I made that mistake a couple of months ago -- OY what an incident!!!!
that is so awesome I freakin love it!!!
omg you are killing me....must...not...buy...more skull clutches.
Sorry I have no idea about these bags. Very odd about the fake dustbag, all I can think of is maybe the seller bought a dustbag off ebay???
I'll keep an eye out for you. Btw. I think you should come to DC so we can hang out with our skull clutches.
Yes, it is very strange! The seller also sent me a fake Yoox receipt so I made a thread in the ebay section asking for advice.
I just bought these two Alexander McQueen bags from ebay:

I was so excited to find this because my sister bought the same bag from net-a-porter a long while ago and then when she went to Italy it was stolen from her! It was such a sore spot with her so I was glad to be able to replace it for her.

Then I got this one for myself because I wanted a big brown bag for uni (all those textbooks, sigh).
I don't know why but I just really love this large Novak flapper style. I feel like it's going to be so handy when I have a lot to carry, because all those pockets will stop me from having to rummage around the bottom of your bag all the time. I can't wait till it arrives.
oh no! how did she get it stolen?
^ She was on exchange in Italy and she left it in a lecture theatre while she went to buy food during a break in the lecture. Apparently all her friends left their bags in the lecture theatre, but when she got back, hers was gone. It was careless on her part, but still, it sucks that somebody (probably a fellow classmate) took it.

Ouch!!!!! What happened?
Well I hope I can take care of this babyitlooks very fragile

DarkS - it was my very own SATC/Carrie Bradshaw moment!!!
The TSA agents at the airport didn't want to let it on board because of the "brass knuckles!!!" And not just any brass knuckles, but brass knuckles "with a bunch of extra stuff on them."
I am 100% serious!
The guy insisted it could be used as a weapon. To which I replied, "but it's not a weapon, it's a $2000 handbag."
He was not remotely amused and said "Ma'am, I don't care what you paid for it, brass knuckles are a weapon and you could be arrested for boarding a plane with this."
It was a big kerfuffle...he had to call someone for a second opinion...etc etc.
In the end, they let me on with it. But it was such an ordeal that I ultimately didn't use the bag, shipped it home separately and returned it!
Actually, I would say the lace part is pretty fragile. It's one of the things that occurred to me as I was looking at it and I discussed with the SA. The lace is an overlay and slides around a bit -- so you'll want to use care so as to not inadvertently tear it....

OMG, but I'm even nervous about carrying my Rocco because of the heavy bullet casing looking type studs on the bottom. TSA is a nightmare. I hate it when they feel the need to check my bags - and I always ask for a woman - which for some reason tends to annoy them, I'm like OMG I have an extra set of clothing in there - including underwear, which already I hate anyone rifling through.
god that bag is gorgeous. I would love one of the knuckle duster clutches, but I barely wear my skull clutch. I need more events in my life clearly.

Well you might be surprised that They said its a weapon ... i had the same ordeal with EBAY!!!
I was trying to sell one of my bags on ebay and they took it off claiming it is a weapon!!! lol i was like WTH! I called them up and i was like how can you use a weapon with a fuchia bag for god's sake!!! lol i bet if alexander mcqueen knows that we can use their bags as some sort of a weapon they would increase the price even more lol
anyway after a series of emails and back and forth emails i finally managed to get it on again and got it sold!
