My first (sort of) reveal!

[katev]

Not really a reveal because I previously posted a stock photo of my recent find but I promised to share real life pics as soon as I could figure out how to get photos from my camera onto my computer. I think I've got it now and I'm ready to attempt my first reveal.

My (new to me) evening bag #1486 is the first bag I've purchased on ebay. I got it for $56 plus S&H and it is in absolutely perfect condition. It was released in 2005 at a MSRP of $278. There's no bullet on the creed so I guess it was originally purchased at a FP store.

She didn't have a dustbag so I bought a cute DSW satin shoe bag for her. I picked a purple bag to match her lavender lining. I figured she needed an elegant place to sleep! Here comes some pics, if it works I will post additional pics in subsequent posts. I hope it works!

Here's some more pics of my new beauty - I can't wait to use her! The first picture is the best close-up of the Swarovski crystals that I was able to get.

Here's my modeling shot with my new little bag. While I was modeling I decided to take a couple of pics of the silver bow ring that I picked up at the outlet a couple of nights ago.

I know, I was thrilled to get the last ring they had at the outlet in this style and it was only $23! You can see the details better in this stock photo:

I know; I love the swarovski crystal accents on it! In fact, when I was considering ways to spend my PCE recently I thought about ordering one of the Pave Crystal keyrings shown below as an accent for this evening bag. But I decided that it is a small purse and it already has some bling on it and it might be better to leave it alone; so I didn't get one.

What do the tPFers think? Would it be going overboard to add a fob accent to this little bag? Thanks for sharing your opinions, I value your input!

Lovely little bag!! I am leaning towards no fob....like you! She is just so elegant all on her own!!
