Hi, i have not owned anything from BV, has been too busy with other brands. Today I was browsing on BV's website and eyed a HOT PINK veneta bag, I believe it's called "Intrecciato Nappa Veneta" in MEDIUM size , it turned me on immediately.
So I decide to get my hands a BV bag for the first time! Have some questions to ask you experts:
1. I do MIND the durability of the leather, considering that I would probably get a PINK or ORANGE for this one, and I don't want to baby my bag, anything requires extra care would give me headache. So I wonder how durable the woven leather is? Can someone compare with Chanel's calfskin/caviar? I know they are totally different things, just want to get an idea. I have researched on threads talking about fraying of the leather, is it serious issue or we can live with it? Is PINK recommended, does it prone to color transfer?
2. Does the style "veneta" come in different leather, the one I saw says "suede" on the website, but I remembered all the BV bags I have seen seem smooth, not a typical suede look, more like lambskin. Correct me if I am wrong.
3. Can i also hand carry the "Veneta"? I really have too many shoulder bags, want a different flavor this time~~
4. I have seen reveals on "Belly" style, is it very different from the classic Veneta style? Which one is more versatile?
Thanks in advance and sorry to have too many things to ask, the photo of the bag i would probably get:
