Paddington!!!

[Serendipity]

Oh crikey, I finally got the NAP order for the Chocolate to go through and I'm already feeling guilty! Tell me I won't be sorry....

You work hard...don't feel guilty...you deserve it! I can't wait to see the pic's don't lose sleep and Happy Holiday's to you! What a wonderful gift from you to you

I just need reassurance that the Paddingtons aren't going to be "so last year" by this summer, LOL!

If you really love a bag and will get a lot of use out of it, I don't think it matters if others think it's "so last year." It just matters what you think about it

True. I'm just reluctant to spend a lot of money on trendy things (my "amortization" philosophy), though I fully expect to love this bag and it will probably get years of use.

That style bag has always been around the only thing you may tire of is the lock. Thankfully you can either remove it or put it somewhere else on the bag so it doesn't scream see me! I think you will love it!

but the lock is the best part!

Yes, that lock was the first thing that draws me into the paddy heaven. Thje lockl is a bit silly at first but I just love it!!

I definately agree! But...if i was going to get tired of something a few years down the road it may be that in the middle of the bag. For now though thats the only reason I want it that lock and key are adorable!

NO FREAKING WAY!! Eeekkk... it's finally opened??!! Is their price the same as NM? And do they have any promotions for their grand opening??

I didn't even have the nerve to ask, :shame: . I knew walking in there that I wasn't going to buy...and I don't play "pretend interested shopper" very well. LOL

Exactly!! Although I think the Paddington style is timeless.

Aww, it's alright girl! We need to do alot of self evaluation before we pluck down the big bucks for this beauty.

Just a comment if they do have any left...now that I think about it, I *believe they had two chocolate one's in the back of the store on the shelves....one I thought was better than the other....as on the side of one, on that middle panel, the color was significantly darker than the rest of the bag. The other bag was more even in coloring all the way around. I wanted to throw that in just in case....

Well, see, that's the thing. I can appreciate the beauty of the bag...and the leather is heavenly, but honestly, the style is just not for me.

If anything, I like their hobo style...but for me, I could do without the padlock.
