Confession time: So sorry I've cheated...

The leather feels quite durable -- I don't have any scratch or dent so far but I also don't use this as often, so I can't be so sure. In any case, the leather has really soften over the years, so it is stronger now. The hardware still shines nicely though I can see a bit of scratch in the area under the clasp, which I think is normal. So, overall it held up well for me!
Thanks so much Phiomega! I've ordered it in black as a work bag :)

I've only managed to obtain 2 BV pieces so far and was convinced that my next purchase would be a pillow bag.. but a friend's wedding popped up for Sept and I saw a deal on L'inde Le Palais! Suddenly I realised I really NEEDED to buy a pastel pink/lavender evening bag to go with my bridesmaid's dress..

So.. here it is, my newest acquisition - Valentino All Over Chain shoulder bag in Rosa!

It's definitely not rose-coloured as I'd imagined and doesn't scream out Valentino like the Glam Lock but it's subtle and perfect to go with the light lavender bridesmaid's dress!!!

The inside of the bag is also scrumptiously lined with buttery soft calf napa and has 3 slip pockets (wall opening between the external wall and main compartment in the front and back double up as slip pockets) with a zip pocket.

I've never bought anything VG before but the quality of the craftsmanship is truly excellent in this bag. I love it!!!

Still fixated on the pillow though.... the thirst never ends.. heheh
 
Brought out my one and only Chloe, the Kurtis... It is a real beauty with the suede flap and gold hardware accents, I got it sometimes in Dec 2016. I love its 'sweet meet edgy' style. Did not use her often enough as my work require me to carry a tote on workdays.

Here you can see the matte gold circles on its sides:

She is not as famous as Chloe Drew, but I think she is more unique. I love the half-moon shape. Chrissy Teigen has flaunted this sometimes in the past.
 
There is a cheat that is so consistent that it is hard to call her a cheat anymore [emoji4]

Some of you know this well as we seemingly share the same consistency.

This Bal City is so convenient with the wide shoulder strap, wide body that fits an iPad, and zipped front pocket where I can throw my phone in. And given its black on black HW, it is also not so 'in your face luxury'. This is important given my line of work needs me to work with people with various background. And as a hardcore BV fans, I love smooshy leather. This is not BV leather, but she has the slouch that I love from soft leather bags.

She has been a consistent cheat amongst my mostly BV rotation....
