Wait, I'm not sure that they're the same bag... I've seen the Chloe Day Tripper that they have too, but that's patent leather, and while this has a sheen to it too, it doesn't look like it's patent to me. Is it really just the lighting? The purple looks much deeper and richer in the bag above.
They look like the same bag to me. IMO, the Daytripper doesn't look so much like patent, even though it is! It looks like leather with a sheen just as you are describing.
Thanks for the info!! Perhaps the last bunch of pictures used flash and so it was more "reflective". I'm definitely in now. Never a big fan of patents, but this one is not like it at all. Have you guys seen in IRL?
