j - It would only make sense that no two washed cow leather bags would be the same... I am sorry you don't like the color, but the flip side is that you know that nobody has the same bag you do, in a manner of speaking. :hugs:
 
I guess I was more surprised it wasn't exactly the same - I do like it. In a way the darker color is less "flashy" since I don't like my bag to enter the room before I do. It's going to grow on me I think.

Jroger I too much prefer your first bag, it is a personal thing but I love the color of the first bag because it is a great neutral and the greyish/greenish tones would make it fit just about all outfits whereas brown is much more difficult because it would be a mismatch with many colors. Also, I find the first bag to have a younger look and a more summery look. Sorry I have to agree with you here.
 
I've been to their Milan store several times when I was on business in Italy (unfortunately a thing of the past), they have great classic bags of very good quality. I've given most of mine to my mother over the time but she loves them all!
 
I just cannot justify keeping the "browner" bag to save $200, now that I know the one I really want is within my reach. Why didn't I wait to return after comparing the two bags side by side? Live & learn.:winkiss:

Yes they are shipping it overnight! I felt bad about it since they offer free shipping & return shipping. But they were very nice about it, in fact they had given a temporary store credit so they will not have to charge my card again. I still can't believe the difference in the two bags, but since I fell in love with the first one that is the one I must have to be satisfied!

Have you contacted Zappos about getting the bag you returned back?
 
Forgive me for sending you back but just so glad you found your way home. Too dramatic??? - sorry!:p

This is an old thread but does anyone know when the Furla stand-alone retail shops in Paris have their own sales?

I'm heading out to Paris at the end of April and I know that's outside of their official 'twice a year' sales period but i was hoping that some of the Furla stores might have their own mini sales?
 
I forgot just how beautiful that bag was, yes we parted ways again. The strap drop made using it for a shoulder bag nearly impossible, so for the price it was just not practical for me to keep it only as a "pretty thing". At least now they have changed the straps from rolled to flat, which I consider an improvement so if you can get the bag on your shoulder it's not as likely to slip off. Zappos offers three colors, yes I've been stalking this bag since letting it go hoping for a redesign on the strap drop.

That strap drop kills me, why couldn't they have at least made this woven leather in multiple styles? They reuse materials on seemingly every other bag they make - why torment us with this. Keep stalking :-)

Do you know if the flat straps as short as the rolled ones, they look longer but hard to tell. Are the colors too different - that one bag you had was perfection. Sigh. I need to go see IRL.
 
I too have been drooling over this bag on Zappos. I actually liked the rolled handles better. Those of you who have seen it in person... Do the sides pinch in permanently or is that just how they have styled the picture? I am a sucker for woven leather.
