So great to "see" you!!!! I Love, Love, Love this!!!!

You came back to kill us with your pics, evil woman you... Love the raisin, love the poms, together simply fabulous!

hmmmmmmm... good things must share :graucho:

love etrusque in box..stunning!! this colour looks so different on box leather vs grained leather.



too stunning for words!!

thanks!

Etoupebirkin, Rocket is amazing! Totally distracted me from the bag lol.

Robee! You have amazing things in your closet.


yours too;)
 
EB - NICE!
Can you please provide a cameo of your poms? Never seen that color set, it's pretty!
Looks like the ones I knitted lol

I'll shoot some pics this weekend. The seller made the poms and gave them to me as part of the sale. I could not be more thrilled with the bag.

It is a completely stunning color IRL and it has a chameleon quality.

More fab box, more fab pom poms, gorgeous! Rocket is adorable, too, although I think you risk loosing those poms to him, lol.

I have to watch the cute lil wretch 24/7. It's like having a 2-year-old. Come to think of it, he's coming up on his 2nd b-day. BTW, I caught him going after the poms in the exact moment I was reading your quote. Thanks for the reminder.

Rocket is such a funny and affectionate guy. I decided the picture of him as my avatar is apropos. I love how the backlighting made a halo over his head. But in truth, he's a such a mischievous kitty.

EB that is one awesome looking bag.
There's nothing like a vintage box Kelly to make you smile.

EB - i love the 35! very chic size.... send the balls over
I love 35s for everyday. Balls are staying in Virginia. At least until I learn how to make em'!!!

BTW ladies, I have another vintage box beauty on the way. When it rains, it pours.

Now if I can find me some raisin box once my wallet recovers, I will be a happy woman.

it takes at least 6 months where i live for a bag to come back regardless of what needs doing. too bloody long to wait and no guarantee of good work..so for my box bags, i have decided to refurbish them myself in the future since i learnt how to condition and polish my vintage box constance from docride. I have done the same to my rouge H jumping boots too..box is pretty easy to refurbish and H probably does the same thing and use the same material :p

Yesterday I finally recived my black Box Jumping Boots!!!
JIPPEEEEE!!!!!

Chincac, what did you do to yours when they were New? Nothing Or die you put on obenaufs Or the other product docride recommends aswell?
And did you have made rubber soles on?
I did not on my Land Boots and I somehow regret it as the soles start to look HORRIBLE....

I would be thankful for your advice!

Thank you so much for you answer!
It really helps a lot!
As I had Bad Feelings about wearing the Boots in wet weather, it is Good to know that you put on some neutral polish. As they are completely New I might try the obenaufs Or just contact Doc for a Short advice....
These Boots are so lovely;)
