Today I got the most special gift from my hubby, for our 18th anniversary. Usually, I just buy something for myself because hubby hates shopping. Yesterday, I went shopping to see if I could find something that he could come back and buy me today.

First stop, Tiffany & Co. The only thing I fell in love with was a card case...lol! I guess I am a diehard leather lover; bags and shoes and SLG's are what make my heart pitter-patter.

Next, Louis Vuitton. I've never been a fan of LV, but I'm always willing to pop in now and then to see if I have a change of heart. I did like one bag, a Marly Epi BB in Pistache, but I didn't love it.

The third time was the charm! I walked into the boutique and saw this gorgeous python bag, not real python (illegal to sell in my state) but a very nice imitation python, complete with scales. I thought it was such a statement piece!

After playing with the python bag, my SA brought a couple of bags hidden in the back, both exotics (again, not real). They have to keep those bags hidden until Friday (their official release date of Spring Act II) but they saw I was into exotics so they snuck them out to show me. One was an ivory python and the other was a light taupe croc. OMG, I fell instantly in love with Miss Croc!!!

This is the first bag I've owned from this designer and I am a little surprised how much I love it because I've never really cared for embossed exotics. But this one I love!!! And it also happens to be a perfect match to my Valentino rockstud straps!!! So I no longer need to buy 4 matching bags to my rockstuds, this one matches them all!!!

I'm over the moon that I found this bag and that hubby and I went to the boutique together to get it! The experience itself was such a treat, as I usually just order a bag as a gift to myself from him. It's not every day, but hubby does continue to surprise me (in a good way!) even after 18 years of marriage. ♡♡♡

Can you guess what designer this bag is from? Maybe the answer will surprise you like it surprised me.

Hint #1: I have Hermès, Chanel (although I can't afford exotics from these two!!!), Balenciaga, Bottega Veneta and Tiffany & Co. bags, so the answer is none of these.

Hint #2: This bag won't even appear on the designer's website until Friday, for the official release.

I cannot see the whole bag, just the bottom and the shoes....[emoji17]
But .....could it be Givenchy?

I think if I posted the whole bag, it would be easy to guess, Mariapia! But no, it's not a Givenchy. There's one feature that gives it away, which is on the top part of the bag. :graucho:

Even on my Instagram @princesscypress no one has guessed it so far. I will do a reveal of it soon, even if no one has guessed the designer! :smile1:

I love this kind of game, Princess Cypress!
Ok, one more try.....
Italian designer?
 
There is not enough of the bag showing to "guess". At this point, I'd say Brahmin, since they are known for croc imprints, but they are hardly a 'designer' you'd be interested in, I'm sure, since they don't do real 'croc'.

Princess Cypress didn't tell us whether it was real croc or embossed leather, Indiaink....and the fact she is saying we are going to be surprised can mean the designer does not belong to the very high end team while making excellent quality bags.....just my two cents....[emoji8]
 
I'm going to guess Coach because that's all I know :p and because they do croc embossed and they have been finishing the seams like in the pic and they have a croc embossed swagger in black which looks TDF (in pics) and because I think they do their floor sets on Fridays. Oh, and because you implied we would be surprised by the designer.

So maybe a Coach croc embossed swagger in chalk? :shrugs:
