For the record, I am blaming doloresmia for my slow, slippery slide into the BV universe!
Happy and content in the world of H, I was lucky enough to meet the oh-so-lovely doloresmia at a tPF meet up last year. After hitting a couple of stores, she dragged me (OK, "dragged" is an exaggeration, but it makes for a better story) to the BV boutique, which was like entering another world. uclaboi was there too, so you can imagine the kerfuffle when we walked in the shop. I largely observed while those two engaged in lots of animated discussion with the SAs about upcoming leathers, styles, colors and techniques -- all of which was like a foreign language to me at that point.
Fast forward. In the months that followed, I started spending more time with the BV brand and have begun to develop some definite passions & preferences. Having stuck my toes in in the water a couple of months ago with a black Parachute bag (yum!), I've just acquired this little gem, which means my BV collection now totals a whopping 2 pieces!
