I saw 3 Belly today in SG Paragon boutique, all in exotics. Not sure if they are on sale tho. HTH

And I could be completely tempted by a matita belly, ReRe. I love the belly (did not know until I got one and carried it) - almost or maybe as much as my large venetas... and I did not think that was possible. But I suspect that these are all gone by now. I wonder if there are any in Europe or Asia? Oh well, you always regret the ones you let get away. Maybe another will show up one day... who knows?

I'm so behind in this thread, but if anyone is still looking, Sak-s NYC had two oxidized copper cervo hobos and a N/S tote yesterday (though it's only 30-40% off, lol).

I just found the mini crochet bag on sale from $5200 to $3100, my heart is breaking. I love this bag but everyone has given it awful reviews...calling it the plate holder. Why would they show the bag all collapsed and flat like a pancake. I was almost ready to get it but no one has anything nice to say about it...does everyone think its ugly?

I think it's beautiful and very unique looking (in a good way)! Having said that, I've seen it only stuffed with paper, not IRL filled with wallet and other items. Can it be returned? If so, you should get it!:D

I think it only matters what YOU think about it! If you like it, then you should get it! I like it a lot, but have purchased tons of other thiings! :graucho: It may seem like no one likes it now, but later everyone may be scrambling to get it. And YOU will have already secured your lovely crochet bag! Woohoo!

I think it can be returned, but I was definitely influenced by the reviews..they were horrible. THey actually said if you see someone who'd spend $5200 on this bag go up and take their temperature. I really do think it they pictured the bag open and not flat it would make a difference to how people viewed it. Maybe its something I should admire and not buy, it really is rather pouffy and I'm not sure that all the colors would easily match in a wardrobe. I just wish I hadn't seen it on sale.

I didn't see the reviews but when I first saw it I did think it looked like a chair pillow cushion! I tried on the deerskin bag version of this bag when it went on sale, just for fun. I was pleasantly surprised! If I hadn't already purchased 4 BV's, I probably would have bought the cobalt cushion bag. I am on the conservative side and I thought it was really cute. Both SA's seemed to like it as well. Hmmmm...I see what you mean about matching your wardrobe...that's why you need to buy it and try it at home. :graucho: Even if you decide to return it, at least you'll get it out of your head. ;) Tough decision - Good luck!
