I totally agree on your description. I had the Night, and while it was beautiful, it seemed too fragile to me. I got the Noir Nikki for this season, and the leather is indeed thicker and more sturdy. Also, the hardware is a bit more updated than the Night....the rings that attach the strap to the bag is not a true square, but more of a triangle with the bottom point cut off. I like it!!
Which boutique did you buy it from?
Oh Wow, I"m glad to hear that I"m not the only one that found the Night, too delicate and the Noir, just right! I was starting to wonder if I was being too fussy!
Thanks for your great review on the Noir. I"m very excited about getting mine.
I purchased from a boutique. I really did have a good experience with them in the past and don't want to harm their reputation. But, then again, I"m not happy with them at the moment, that they even sold this bag and are (I think) going to try and re-sell it to someone else. That's why I"m hoping that everyone will be extra careful!
