I have not seen it IRL, just pictures. When I look at your pictures and the pictures of the one shown on TPF and ebay, the gold comes across that way. I also feel like if a sequin did come off, the gold would show up more than the black. Just my opinion. My black alma will be here on Wednesday. I also ordered the gold pochette, but am having second thoughts.
BagAngel, your pochette is absolutely stunning! Thank you for sharing your pictures with us. I am so guilty of buying a bag or two every month and never taking pictures, but yet I appreciate and love when someone does.
Actually I have to tell you that I was going to take my name off the list and pass on this collection until you made the comment about seeing them in person and thought they were TDF. I have made several judgement calls on pieces based on your opinion. I guess that could be bad or good. My husband would say bad and I would say THANK YOU!!!!
