Okay, here are a couple that came in the mail today!!
Claudia in sand and Ada in terrain. The Ada is from the sample sale. The terrain is a great brown color, very neutral. The sand is absolutely soft as buttah....
I see today was Christmas again Shewolfy!!!
Gorgeous bags, I love that Ada in Terrine, and I thought Bourbon was my favorite color for it! CONGRATS
Oooooh! Ahhhhhh!
It is gorgeous...I think I like that color better than my Bourbon one......What a nice Ada!!
I think I got a little crazy!! Its an Isabella Fiore Live to Love bag. I'll tell you though, it waeighs half as much as some of these Koobas!! And it holds a ton!!! There is a wait list for these things at some of the NM stores.
It's funny that you mention loving it in pics. I have several IFs and have coveted loads more....until I went to the sale at the IF warehouse last month. Bags I had drooled over in pictures just looked....kinda cheap in person. Especially the "tattoo" bags and the weird floral bags in the funkiest colors.
The ones I have that I adore I'll keep forever and I think that is due in part to the fact that they are a bit older than the new lines. The two principle designers have gone over to Lockheart bags and it shows. Also, the leather just doesn't seem as wonderful as it used to be. I do like the shape, though and the color. My Audras are a bit smaller than that and they hold everything I need and sit comfortably on the shoulder.
Back to topic: Certainly the leather doesn't compare to Kooba leather either. Not many bags do in my opinion. Just something about it. I've said many a time that no one does black leather like Kooba. Well, at least in the past. I'm not sure what the current lines leather looks or feels like in person.
I love it and the leather is soft, but it's a bit much. I just emailed him to see if he would let me return it. I doubt it though. I just sent a pic to a few friends and they both loved it, so who knows. I think that Kooba leather is very very nice, but I still may keep it since it's lighter and I can't damage it as easily as a Kooba. I am rough on things and it seems like everytime I have a Kooba I find myself being careful. Am I just being too paranoid? I'm like this with everything though when it's new...
congrats.
