Amazing Matchka~!!!
Thanks so much for sharing your gorgeous collection!

Question: Can the Sid be a hand-held or arm-carry bag, or is it strictly a shoulder bag?

Both! The Sid actually has two sets of straps/handles. There are two shorter thicker handles with studs on them which are conducive to arm carrying and then a set of thinner long straps for shoulder carrying.
 
Match, you're the queen of SP's! Do you use them on a regular basis? They are all so beautiful. I have only seen one irl and it was a Sid. It was at a consignment store and I believe it was determined by one of our tpf'ers that the handles were cut off (or was it the shoulder strap?). In any event, it was beautiful and the same color as your Sid. I really liked it and wanted to purchase it, but dh talked me out of it. No regrets since I have tons of stams now.

Hi TT!!! You know, I don't use them as often as I should! Over the past 6 months I have been doing a major purge of my bags so that I would have a small manageable group that I will use instead of admire from afar... So from here on out I will hopefully be carrying them all a lot more - - I do carry the pouches as evening bags quite often....They are the perfect size and are just COOL!

Funny you should mention the Sid with the strap situation, because that seems to be the exact same bag that I now own!! Ha ha!! The store I guess ultimately listed it on the bay, and did NOT mention anything about the handles in the listing (and the pics somehow camoflaged the issue very well...) So, I did some negotiating with them, and in the end got a discount on my purchase price. But yeah, the shorter straps were removed from the bag, which is such a shame! But actually their absence lightens the bag somewhat, and so now it's a shoulder carry only bag. Not really such a bad thing.... but it sure would be nice to have it in its original condition....
 
OMG!
Now I must have a Sid!
As hard as they are to find, I may have now found a SP that may work for me!

They DO show up...... the bisque seems to be the one that appears most frequently, but the studded Sid was only made in three colors: bisque, black and the violet - - It was also done in the very rare Color Block group; where all of the SP shapes were done in color block shades of very military looking greens and browns - - really stunning and shockingly rare.

I have the distinct feeling that the next time a black Sid shows up, it will be something like World War III....:bagslap::noggin::bagslap:
 
It's been received but I had it shipped to my dad's address because I thought I was going to be there for Thanksgiving and wanted to have it then. But, there was a change in plans and wasn't able to make it. So, I am hoping to pick her up by the end of the week. So excited! I'm hoping to do a reveal by this weekend...keep your fingers crossed.
 
Woohoo! Got my Debbie! My son was taking pics and my little girl squeezed herself into the model shot :smile1:
