I'm relatively new to Frye boots & bags. I'm thinking of getting a Frye Elaine Vintage Satchel in Smoke color.

http://www.thefryecompany.com/handbags/view-all/db288/elaine-vintage-satchel?color=SMK

Does anyone know what their Smoke color looks like in real life? In the pictures, it seems to have some brown and some black.

I would be thrilled if it's actually more like a dark grey. I've been looking for a grey bag for a while, and it seems quite hard to find!

I'm don't know anything about the color Smoke but that is a super cute bag. I have a Frye satchel from a few years ago....it is very well made. The leather is thick and soft and the zipper is sturdy and it runs smooth. Nice hardware. Unfortunetely I do not remember the name of the bag. It is maroon in color.
 
:tdown::nogood::crybaby::crybaby: So I returned the aqua maggie wingtip shoes. I found a pair of bluch color on ebay:) yeah ... They camt to day and they are lovely:) only they are not a size 10 they are a 8.5!!!!!!!! OMG how does someone make that mistake!! SO I email the lady and she emails me back and is like what makes you think they are a 8.5 im like um they are makrked 8.5, and I knew something was wriong when I took them out. They looked too small. Sheesh....

Now heres the deal, I can get my foot in ther, and because these are like Carson I could probably get away with this using a thin sock. But the width is killer, no way. So, do yall think this is pointless or should I try to get these things stretched. BTW I dont think you can get this color anymore. These are hard to find.

1.5 sizes too small seems a little much for me... I hear you can stretch up 0.5 size max. How on earth could your seller make such a mistake omg! How annoying... Even though you will definitely get your money back, it's the waste of time and effort and getting happy for nothing! I feel so annoyed for you!

I would send it back and wait for a perfect pair.
 
I found these harness boots some time ago at Nordstrom . Either they are a men's shoe, or they are a women's shoe but mismarked. I say this because they are a size 8.5 but I am definitely most often a women's 10.5 or so. I haven't been an 8.5 since middle school, lol, bu I LOVE these boots

I recently got my first pair of Frye's. These are the Melissa Buttons in Burgundy Brush-Off Leather. They were a steal--on sale for $209 at Zappos! I looked today, and they still have them for $246 if anyone is interested. The color and leather are gorgeous; they're just a little redder than the Cognac, but not nearly as red as Wine, Bordeaux, or Burnt Red.

Yes, theyve been trying to fix it for over a week now I think :tdown::tdown: I miss the app!
.
 
Any word on the fix? This as been the :tdown::tdown::tdown::tdown::tdown:
I guess im an app girl...anyone score any end of season deals? I have a few things headed my way. Jane Trapunto Bootie showed her face today. Its pretty identical to my 14L just got the short version because of the tropical weather here, Anyone who has Jane knows that is some thick leather to be wearing around when the weather doesnt get cool.

Got a Vera Slouch in black,and a tall Carmen Harness in Dark Brown both for steals- about 135.00 that all the news in Hawaii:cutesy:
