Hi - This is my first post. I must admit I've been lurking for awhile and just worked up the nerve to write something. I loved my new Sig. Gigi tote in khaki/black until:
1. I saw it knocked off at a street vendor's kiosk in Puerto Rico
2. I saw it knocked off on eBay
3. I read someone's TPF post that some larger sig. bags "scream Coach"
4. I read that most of you prefer the Gigi in leather or patent leather (which I also love)
5. I read that most of you would *die* if someone thought you were carrying a fake
I've never been one to be swayed by the power of outside influence but I'm starting to have second thoughts about this bag
. I bought last month at the boutique on PCE because of the size, the lighter weight and the versatility of the khaki/black colors. As PATHETIC (and I truly mean pathetic) as this sounds, if one person could write back and tell me they would buy this bag or have bought this bag it might just balance out the 5 concerns listed above that are swirling around in my head 
And then the two of us could be Sig Gigi friends and have each other's backs when we're down about seeing yet another knock off of a really great bag!!!! 
Here's your chance to save a Gigi from losing her home and heading back to the icy cold back storage room at the boutique!

it!! Don't worry what others think. You gotta get what you want. 
What ever makes you happy. I have bags from Coach to Chanel. I love
I am kind of a newbie, but I am starting to feel at home. Everyone is so nice and since I have no siblings, and my friends are not into bags, tPF has been so great for me. Looking forward to seeing you.
You're going to love it here because it is a place you can truly relate with other purse lovers whom are few and far between in real life. My sister hates carrying a purse and only grabs a wallet wherever she goes so I can't talk to her about it. My friend likes purses but is not into Coach like I am. Only LVs. She hardly takes a second glance at any of my purses so I couldn't really talk to anyone until I found this place. I love it here and I hope you do, too! I've learned so much about Coach like which bags/wallets are keepers and which ones are so-so. Very good advice you'll find.
