My FOS items came in the mail today. I am quite pleased with the items. They are sitting in my family room warming up from the deep freeze we are in here. I'll take photos when I fully unpack them. I'm most pleased with the Faye bag, which, in my opinion, is a very good representation of the Drifter. I was actually quite surprised at the quality. The back slit pocket is truly a usable slip pocket with no magnet and goes the full length of the back of the bag. I found the back pocket on the Drifter to be basically unusable because it was too difficult to get into. The 2nd item, the black E/W Harley with the iridescent studs is very pretty and I know it will be a keeper as well. I got the stars and moon studded slip on sneakers. They are velvet. They look very narrow so I'm not sure I'm going to be able to fit into them but they are super cute. The last thing I got was a small tri-fold hologram wallet. It's nice, but it's basically just teal in color. There is no iridescent or any other colors showing regardless of the light I put it under. I'm sure if I'll keep it or not. In any event, I will take photos later and post them. Just wanted to share my initial thoughts.

That was my worry about this latest line of hologram items. The pictures I'm seeing are looking teal or purple, without the range of colors I've seen on previous hologram collections.

I was very interested in the shoes but didn't discover them until you mentioned you have purchased them, and by then, my size was gone. Actually I wanted the lace up version. I'm not sure how I feel about them being velvet rather than leather. I have narrow feet, which is why I assumed the slip on version wouldn't work for me.
 
Here are some shots of the items. I'll think on all of them as I'm currently organizing all of my bags & accessories. All in all, happy with everything. The shoes are keepers. True to size. The inside of the Faye is not leather but that doesn't bother me. A truly well made MFF bag. Any questions, let me know.

I loved the Drifter and have two tophandle bags and 1 carryall so I'm anxious to see Faye! I have been locked out of the online outlet sale lately which sort of bothers me. I mean....I'm a good customer! They told me it was a random computer invite. Well, the computer was dead on for the last 3 years and now stopped. Maybe my time has expired???

Any way, it looks like your bag is black but are the sides a dark brown suede? It is hard to tell in the photos. What other colors does the bag come in? I'm not sure when I'll be driving out to my outlet since it has been snowing on and off here in NE OH. I take public transportation when it is bad out...leave the driving to someone else!

Thank you!

Hi! I'm sorry to hear of your inability to get into the site. Totally random.
Anyway, the bag is completely black just like the original retail store Drifter. The front is a smooth black leather the size are black suede and then there are contrasting heavily pebbled areas like are in the back. I believe it comes in red with gold hardware and a hot pink with silver hardware. Unsure if either of those are still available on the site. If you think you'd like the bag, you could call a local outlet & do a charge/ send. I'm sure if all stores do this or if that's a random thing too. I know I've had outlets in various states do charge sends in the past. If you think that might be a better option, I go that route, particularly if they have the bag and store. The item number for the black say that I ordered is F22348.
Hope that helps.

Thank you! When our roads clear up, I'll make a trip out to the outlet. I can't get there via public transit but no big hurry. I have plenty of bags to entertain myself but would love to see how they remade the Drifter for outlet. I'm not sure what color I'd want. I did like the cerise (bright pink) but lately been stalking ebay for a clutch/wallet in that color. Thanks for sharing your fabulous finds!
 
My mom surprised me with some of the outlet hologram items (the hobo, a wristlet and the small cosmetic) and I really like them! The color shift is more uniform than last years items, and I love the color changes (dark blue/purple/teal). I am so happy the outlet decided to do hologram this year, I really love last years and was looking forward to this years collection. I was disappointed the boutique didn't do any holo this holiday season, but the outlet came through lol. Anyhow, I think the new holo items are beautiful and I recommend checking them out.

I just ordered one of the hologram wristlets a few days ago, no shipping confirmation yet. It's good to hear that you like the colors - fingers crossed!

I'm just sorry to have missed out on the black and gold Swarovski Rexy necklace. :crybaby:

I had ordered a jacket too on the 29th and no shipping confirmation. I called earlier today and they tracked and said it shipped out the same day and will be here tomorrow. I hope it's the same for you and hope get your order tomorrow too!
Now what is this necklace you are talking about? When did it come out? Got any pics?
