I'm in Love with IF

The studs are the same as the leather color. I hope they don't chip or wear. This bag came in other colors. Pink for one with pink studs. Not too attractive IMO The Gold sheen compliments the leather beautifully without making it look tacky or garish.

I need to get someone to take a pic of it on the arm. It's not so slouchy it look sloppy. The strap is thick and comfortable and it stays on your shoulder really well. It's comfortable under your arm with an approximate 10 inch drop length but it seems a little more because of the slouch affect. It is absolutley one of the most gorgeous bags I have seen. As you can see I am quite enamored.
 
I also have the IF Audra but the one that came out last summer. I was on a waitlist from July and finally got it in October! I was so excited when I finally got it! The hardware on mine is gold, not the same color as the bag as yours is. However, everyone on the thread has said that IF is great quality and I have to disagree. My studs are falling off the bag and the leather tassles have also fallen off. I had to bend the metal on the tassles to keep them on. I cannot get ahold of any IF people who will assist me. Just beware. I have a feeling that they changed the studs on the newer Audra because they were having problems with the ones on my bag. Anyone have any suggestions on how to get my bag fixed?

Sorry to hear about the problems with your Audra! I too have an IF Audra from last year (the original version, with gold studs) and have used it a lot since getting it from Adasa last October.....so far so good....no problems with the studs or tassels. But right after reading your post I went to examine my bag closely...and I can see how the studs could potentially fall off w/ time....they really aren't attached all that tightly. Now I'm getting a bit worried too... I LOVE that bag to death (both the style & the leather...the newer '06 versions can't even compare) so I really hope it doesn't fall apart in the near future. Is there any way to contact the IF headquarters through their website to alert them of the problem?
 
I love my Audra, too!!
Ladies help!! is it just me???
I can't post pics. I have a new IF bag I want to share with you, but when I try to attach my photos I get an error message... something about the size being too large, 76? kb instead of the max of 246??lol
Does this make sense to anyone? What am i doing wrong?
HELP!! I know nothing:huh:

You may want to try www.resize2mail.com

This site will resize pics so that its kb size is smaller. Don't worry; I learned this trick recently too. :laugh:

Hope this helps.
 
I'm trying to get this pic thing right. I want you to see this bag:sad2:
It did work!!!! Ladies, my new addition. This is "Oh Suzani". It will be EVEN better once it softens and slouches a bit more. I like it... Turquoise and Brown....
can't go wrong IMO
