Have you ever found a BV so special, so rare, that you feel like you've won the handbag lottery? I think these finds deserve their own thread. A place for us to share our lottery prizes!
I'll start off with my find. It happened last weekend. I was up too late Friday night, casually scrolling on TRR, when I saw her. I told myself a few days earlier, "No more handbag purchases until later this year." I was sipping margaritas on ban island.
But how often does one stumble across a super rare BV on a resale site? She was green (favorite color), she was croc (not yet in my BV collection), she was a Stretch Knot (hmmm....don't have that one either).
SHE WAS LIMITED EDITION 1/1.
But I'm on ban island, so I click the
icon, and go to bed.
Then Sunday morning, I see @Euclase's post about this Stretch Knot on the BV Finds thread. I reply, mentioning I have my eye on it. Then @indiaink gave me the encouragement I needed, by telling me to do it - it's a once in a lifetime thing. And she was absolutely right!
So, my gorgeous, one of a kind, green croc Stretch Knot arrived tonight, and I'm in love. I easily consider this the most special bag in my collection. Oh, and those initials on the plate? It was already personalized, but my initials happen to be "AG" also. She was meant to make her way to me, and I named her Fortuna.
If you made it this far, thank you for reading my novel of a post. Here she is.
