My first two... Reveal

[beesaunt]

Was so focused on getting these authenticated that I forgot to do a reveal!

(So thankful for the authenticators on this forum - especially Conni618, who authenticated both of these new-to-me beauties. Thank you!)

The first is a 2009 Giant Bowler Street Bag in Charbon that I got back in May.
The second is 2009 City in Tempete Storm which just arrived yesterday.

Been wanting a City for awhile, but oddly enough I actually prefer the Bowler (my battle-axe Bal - it's a big, chunky knock-around bag )

Super-happy with both finds...

Congrats! Love the Charbon color best buy I'm also not a blue gal. Both are great finds. I love the city style.

Congrats to both!
I love the Tempete Storm color! I hope that be released again in the future!

Wow! Both bags are so pretty! Now you will need to do a modeling shot! I just love to see handbags being worn! :greengrin:

 

[PHENOMENON]

I love the muted, grayish blue on the Tempete. Lovely!

Is the Bowler a challenge to carry? I guess that I have always thought of East/West style satchels as easier to carry than North / south bags, like the Bowler . . .

Congrats, great find!
Does the bowler have 2 zipper too? I guess it'd make it easier to open if it has only one
I'm also considering a bowling bag from MBMJ .. not very sure how much I'd like the shape

Very nice! I'd love to see a mod shot of the bowler!

Thanks! The Bowler feels pretty good to carry. I've had taller bags which were a pain (the endless dig when you need something), so this one seems easier than those.
