I've seen that Dressed Down on a couple of sites. Very pretty bag!! Question for ya... are the Bad Kitty and the Chicklit essentially the same size?

no- bad kitty is more of a slim zipper pouch. Its smaller and not really a traditional wallet.

I really like the Native New Yorker. I wish I'd ask her how much it was when I was in that shop. The weird thing is, I actually know more about Tanos than the woman who owns the shop and orders the bags. She seemed to think it was a leather bag. Whoops!

 

[Celts20]

Thanks much, TE. I've been using the Bad Kitty and like it a lot. Was going to try the Chicklit, but think I'll wait for a sale on another Bad Kitty somewhere.

Hi TE! I'm a white/cream bag lover, so I've been contemplating something in Beach. I thought I read something in past posts that it is extremely delicate. I just don't want something that's going to look beaten up after a couple of uses. TIA!

 

[tano expert]

Baghag, I would say that about ANY light colored leather bag- not just the Tano's beach crunch. You have to treat it more carefully than dark/bright colors. If you use it every day it will show more wear and tear. If you alternate it with your other bags you can probably keep it nice year after year.

Thanks TE!!

im hard on my things-- i would never DREAM of buying a white/cream leather bag. Although Im still thinking about the lenny leather eight ball in winter white from spring 08... damn, sorry I missed out on that one.

 

[baghag411]

The trick to the white/cream leathers is NOT to baby them. . . the more careful I am with them, the more I spill on them. . . I even took my white Coach to an amusement park one summer and it left unscathed!

It's funny when that happens. I've met two SAs who ask me questions if I'm there Then there was the one that was rude when I referred to the Kooba make up case (it's name) as such and corrected me saying it was a handbag, "it's called a cluch." LOL.

TE, is the Petit Larceny available in beach yet?

 

[tano expert]

Tano has not shipped beach to stores yet. It was supposed to be 3/30. then 4/30, now its 5/30. Meanwhile, some pre-fall colors (garnet, espresso, flame, cobalt) have already started to ship.

(?????)

Ohhhhhh......I cannot wait for the new bags to get in!!!!

TE, how does Violet differ from Grape or Plum Jelly? Sorry if you've answered this before. I did a search but didn't come up with anything.
