dear
maplemoose, I just had to let you know that this is the most amazing bag that I have seen in quite a while! When I first saw your post, it literally took my breath away. And I completely blame it on your awesome photo (so beautiful with the Bolduc-wrapped handles, the horsehair charm and the scarf as a background), that I went back to the boutique today and had myself put on the list for a B in Barenia.

Around here, Barenia Bs are like unicorns - they sometimes have less than 1 per year, and not many people request them. But I strongly believe it will be worth the wait, no matter what. My SA was over the moon with my choice though - for once, I felt like a complete connoisseur, haha. Just wanted to let you know and thanks for the enabling.
