'Blondie is Back'!

I'm 90% sure the small in Cuir is going to be my next bag purchase. I need something not black (lol) and I don't want to get another Diana. Love the chain, and love the logo. I was considering getting the gold 1947 bamboo, but I can't stop thinking about the darn Blondie. (Not a Marmont fan, Attache is a bit clunky to operate, and the Jackie's open top scares me as I am pretty careless ha.)

It's a bummer there's no coordinating wallet. Japan is still super cash based, and my Japanese credit cards don't work with Apply Pay, only iD pay, which might be a Japan-only thing? (SUPER frustrating either way.) So, I do need to tote physical cards, coins and paper cash around a lot. Hopefully soon.

Just placed my order for the Blondie. Very excited to get it. I opted for the monogram but will get the blue suede if if ever comes in the larger size. I saw the matching boots and I'm salivating.
 
Look what I did!!

This is such an amazing color. I tried talking myself out of suede. I looked at the Carmel and black smooth leather. They just didn’t have the life, the story that this one feels it has.

It is a true chameleon. With browns, it looks brown. Next to black, it looks burgundy. With tans, it plays to a burnt orange. Absolutely stunning in person. Pics do not do it justice.

I couldn't agree with you more. I tried it on in the large size (so tempted!) and it is truly stunning! Congratulations!

Fingers crossed you love it when it arrives XXXXX

You make a very good point. I already have blue suede boots :graucho:

Were did people see the purple suede for sale? :sad: New bags on the UK but no new Blondies

My SA showed me the purple. Again, only in the smaller size. I haven't seen it for sale. Those blue suede boots are EVERYTHING!!!!! I love them with the passion of a 1000 flames. I just can't justify getting them ...without the bag that is. The blue is phenomenal!!

Sorry to quiz you further but was the purple suede or hair-calf?

I think both are stunning.

Both have black leather trim. The Green Med, has 3 separate straps

I have Gucci 'pony' (2 jackets jacket and a pony/croc bag) and all have held up well but my bag is absolutely hand-held only.

Word of warning if you've never had 'pony' before, you would have to be careful of the reverse-side of 'pony' rubbing. These bags are not for everyday wear unless you don't mind.

Wow! They are both stunning. I thought they were suede. I think I would prefer suede. Is the green the medium size?
