Hi, I'm completely new to this forum so not quite sure where to post this! Hopefully it's ok here? Last week I bought my first Rebecca Minkoff bag, it's second hand and I spotted it and just loved it. I knew nothing about the brand, so joined purse forum to do some reading and have learnt a lot! I still can't find much about the bag I've bought, other than it's some kind of Love saddle bag? If anyone knows when it was originally sold, or if anyone has one I'd love to find out more.
After reading loads more on here I then bought another bag, which I THINK is an original MAB? I managed to get it for £15 on ebay, so I'm super excited to see the condition etc. It looks like the leather has darkened a lot, which I'm pleased about as I'm not a huge fan of the blue (love the tan though!), but for the price I couldn't pass it up. I'm thinking of either trying to darken up the blue leather, or even dye the blue parts black, as that would be so much more my style, but I was wondering if you guys think that keeping it in it's original colours would be best, if perhaps one day I could sell it on and eventually buy one in a colour I love? I'm not worried about being precious with it because of the price so I wouldn't be scared to try the dye, but would it ruin a classic?! Thanks for any help!
