...and you're thinking, "Who the hell does she think she is, going out and getting another bag when she just got her coveted 70th Anniversary vachetta Caroline in pristine, brand new condition off eBay?!!!" And the truth is, I've been LIVING in my vachetta Caroline since it arrived and now I'm looking at all my beautiful spring/summer bags and wondering when I'm going to have the courage to switch into them, because I love my Caroline so much. I'd sleep with her next to my pillow at night if I didn't have a husband, two cats, and a (albeit wavering) sense of sanity.

BUT...(you knew this was coming)...I had to return an unused Kylie crossbody in saffiano leather - the mandarin orange one I revealed a bit ago - because I've never used it. I bought the Phoebe and matching wallet in mandarin orange instead, and I looked at the Kylie with its tags sitting on it and I'm thinking, "I'm never going to use that pretty little thing." So I had all intentions of returning it and walking out the door, new fall bags on display be damned.

Um...yeah, right. I put the Kylie towards this one (below). But I'm done. I swear I'm done. I HAVE to be, because now that the fall bags are coming out and I actually LIKE them - no, LOVE them (Olive turnlock Carlyle? or black? Beautiful) - I'm screwed if I don't start saving for fall. Shoot...I was really banking on NOT liking the new fall lineup under Vevers' direction.

Ok, here we go...who's with me? :blushing:

Here : )
 
Thanks for joining! Ok...my midnight show. I think she was already revealed, but I searched several threads because I don't think the original owner did a separate thread/reveal, so I thought what the heck...

The Phoebe in Metallic "gold." It's really a "burnished bronze," I described to my husband as he rolled his eyes, but really, it is. It's also helping to sway me over to the new signature linings, because I think the lining goes beautifully with this particular bag.

Anyway, it's beautiful and it's shiny and I love it.
