Ostrich East/West Shopper

[lavenderjunkie]

Check out this beauty! I first saw it on the Dillards website and couldn't get it out of my mind.
Now it's on sale on ILD.... and with the extra 35% off, the price was under $120.
Of course I had to order something else too, in order to get free shipping.
Can't wait to see the Ostrich E/W Shopper in person.

Did you purchase the grey? That looks like a really good neutral.

I have been all over the place with colors catching my attention. One day I fall in love with many neutral shades and the next day I am looking at pops of color. All of a sudden I want teal or raspberry. I think it depends on something looking like the perfect shade.

Enjoy your new bag. What a great deal!

G: Yes I did buy the grey. I really like the look of the light grey and white/bone
ostrich combination. It's an unusual and interesting look. And with all the handbags I have, I'm trying very hard not to buy another that looks like what
I already have.... color and style. So it's unique look first attracted me when I
saw it on the Dillard's site. When it popped up on ILD at a great sale....
I added it to my collection.

I generally gravitate towards pops of color. I like some of the textured leathers...
croco, ostrich, snake.... for variety. But deep down I'm a leather snob....
Alto and Florentine. Sometimes a smooth leather gets me.... but the more I learn
about leathers, the more I stay away from some of the thinner, treated, less expensive leathers.

I am a fellow Alto and Florentine snob. The leather matters! Think of all the posts on PF where someone returns a bag because of the leather.

I returned two Lo and Sons bags last week because of leather issues. I think I will stay a D&B customer, because while I complain occasionally, the quality has remained the 20 years I have been a customer.

Good for you! If I had the space, I would try a new collection within the D&B line. It was my idea to downsize and I am paying the price with fewer rooms and smaller closets.
