So...after obsessing and looking online at this style and another CD style (and the only place online I could find to actually buy was Zappos) ....I popped back into
Nordstrom's this morning. The bags had disappeared! So I talked to the SA and they had just moved them to the back (this is the second time in a week she's brought out bags from the back for me to look at. I'd really like to know what else they are hiding back there!). This time, she had the camel. While trying on the bag, I mentioned that I saw at the CD site, that there was a smaller version. She said it was "really" small, but had one she was holding for another store I could look at. Lo and behold, it was the camel. And the last one they had at any store! It wasn't "really" small...it was perfect. Long story short, the other store's customer passed and it came home with me! Now I am doing the second-guessing thing..which for some reason I have been doing a lot lately. The gold hardward doesn't 'pop' against the camel the way it does against the white and the black. The white is super gorgeous but I am very leery of a white bag and have been searching for a long time for a camel/tan/beige (I almost always carry black) bag that is just the right color and a cute style. The style is defintely great! The leather is scrumptious. But now I am second-guessing the aforementioned hardware and wondering if the camel isn't too orangey. I don't know why I am doing this lately! I'm even telling myself that most of the Charles David's at the
Nordstrom's here end up at the Rack for half price and I should just hold out. BUT...it's the only camel they have, so the chances of that happening aren't very realistic. But I keep glancing at the bag while I type and I think "Dang! That's a gorgeous bag!" I am hopeless!! :blink:
