Whee~~~!!
I'm so happy! So, originally my hubby had got me the Dusty Pink cocker. He saw how much I loved it and decided, instead of getting that 1 bag as V-day & anniversary gift, he was getting me a 2nd one (another Cocker but in Noche) as the 2nd gift for the 2 different events. He brought it home this past week in a BV box w/leather ribbon on it and I was so touched. But, he said he saw the Ball bag in a Noche color as well and thought it was nice and wasn't sure he made the right choice. He took me back to BV today and let me decide which one I wanted. As much as I love the Cocker, I thought having a different bag in my collection would be nice, especially w/the precious money he spent. So, I got the Ball bag in Noche.

In addition, I was selling some of my wallets to get a new BV or an LV long wallet that I could use for a long time. I saw the purple zippered long wallet and fell in love w/the color. So I bought that. The black continental wallet was a gift last year from my hubby when he got me the hobo, and I had not used it and thought about selling it, but I fell back in love w/it. So I'll keep it! :love:

I just wanted to share my happy moment w/you guys and thought it'd be nice to provide some photos that compares the styles/sizes/colors of the different BV classic styles and how they look worn. Hope you enjoy them! (and that it persuades you to get one as well :graucho: )

Oh, and if this interests any of you, the Cocker is made w/deerskin and the Ball bag is made with lambskin. There was a new bag designated as 'classic' collection called 'Sloan' (something like that) that's fully woven hobo but w/one flat strap and w/flap closure and it was gorgeous. It's in the BV site. The color was this light grayish color in 'Limo' and supposedly it's being selling very well. I could see myself getting that bag some time in the future (maybe next year?? :graucho: ).
 
OMG, Bella, congrats!!! Can I borrow your hubby for awhile LOL?? That's so fantastic--we've all admired the Cocker bag and now the Ball bag is stunning! I love their wallets; I have that black one you pictured and get so many compliments on it. Where do you shop for BV? I can't wait to see the new things. :drool: I'm as excited about your bags as you are!!
 
:nuts: :nuts:

Oh bella1, I'm SO jealous!! A dusty pink Cocker bag, and now a Ball?? I :heart: BV's browns!! Noche is just SO yummy isn't it??

Congrats on ya growing BV collection!!!
 
Wow your bags look great on you! Thanks for the additional info on Bottega someday (soon hopefully) I will get a camera and post mine! I have three as well . . . and then I bought matching cosmetic cases for each bag . . . (why I feel compelled to do that I have no idea!) although I don't have their wallets (their wallets I think are some of the best for organizing stuff) because I carry my LV cherry blossom wallet every day and I am happy with that . . .
 
Congrats on your new bags, they arecall TDF especially the ball bag is my big love. That's the only bag in my collection which I'll never ever sell.!
 
OMG!!! I would fall over dead if my DH volunteered to take me out and buy me a $1500 bag, much less two. He sounds like an awesome catch!

Your BV collection is gorgeous! I love the color of the cocker. The ball bag doesn't happen to come in that color, too, does it?
 
Thanks for sharing, they are all soooo beautiful! I have the same Ball Bag and in the same color-isn't it buttery soft? Your husband is definitely a keeper! What a thoughtful guy.;)
