Anyone else eye-balling these? I really want both although I like top zip better than just a magnet...do I just flip a coin?

Gee, am I the only person who ever liked the python Fossil collection? They're heavily discounted on Fossil website.

I definitely like the print - I'm not a big fan of the snap closures. Of the ones on sale, I'd go for the bucket. For larger bags, though, I don't like the dark interior - for me it makes it hard to find things when it becomes most critical... like when the garage door light dimms as I'm digging around for the house keys. :)

I have owned many Fossil bags and accessories over the years but other than a wallet that I rarely use, nothing was left in my collection until yesterday. I was looking for a leather crossbody to use when shopping and found one I just love at TJMaxx...

Thanks for the input...always happy to discover I'm not just talking to myself :D

Yea, I was so disappointed when I saw the bar satchel irl and it just had a magnetic closure. It's a substantial bag and I still like it -- solid leather colours and this python leather print version. The price is just so tempting! I already bought the python new maddox satchel and I got a decent price (for Canada anyway) at $200 so that is why I have to resist the other one :p By the time I receive it shipped to Canada, it would be just over $200 I think.

I love fossil, love love love!
I think all this vintage kind of leather bags are my favourites. Any one of you know Liebeskind Berlin? because if you like fossil, you'll like it too.

The irony....I just ran across this brand (Liebeskind) online 2 days ago!! I had never heard of it. The leather looks positively smooshy and thick and luscious! The price was in my league also. I'm obsessed and want to touch one now! Nordstrom's is 2 hours from me but my awesome ex-husband said he would buy me new boots at Nordy's when he gets back into town from working. I can't wait to check one of these bags out. I like the Gloria satchel and the Suri by Liebeskind. Oh, but I so want to get a Dooney and Bourke Vachetta Satchel! I found a cute Fossil Maddox messenger bag at Marshall's a couple of months ago. I went back twice before I finally bought it....I couldn't quit thinking about it when I got home! It is red; I love it. It is a small bag for me though; I am a person who carries a big bag normally. I have to downsize when I use it but I switch off bags every few weeks. This cute Fossil bag has taught me that I don't need my checkbook with me all the time, and a few other things that I just choose to carry around in my larger bags. I love Fossil belts also. I want to buy dozens of them but I restrain myself, LOL.

If I had the money I would buy all of them. You can also look for "Fritzi as Preussen" or FREDsBRUDER if you like bags like that. ahh I don't advertise in here, I don't have any connection to these companys, unfortunately :wtf:

Ok...my mom just bought a beautiful yellowish leather fossil wallet and 2 days later somehow there's a grease/oil (?) stain on it that darkened the color in a big spot! Any ideas on how to fix it or just leave it? Thanks...

Likely a question for the handbag maintenance subforum, but you might have some luck with a cotton cloth and dove dish soap. The dishsoap would loosen the oil/grease and possibly make it easier to wipe off with a damp cloth.

Thanks Tygriss.

Also, anyone have a navy leather fossil bag? I bought one and still have the tags on (looks super cute)..., but I just saw same one at another store, but more beat up looking...not sure if I should keep the navy color or opt for a brown that would age better...
