Dillards clearance, oh how I heart you!

Large Chili Riley at half off, yes please! I was out of town last weekend and missed the extra clearance at Dillards, but I'm still very happy to find this cutie at half off.

They still have Watermelon and and may go back and that color of it's still there.

The Chili is gorgeous! The Riley looks fabulous in any color. Such a great bag!

I've just ordered myself a large Riley in black. I visited my local Belk to see it in person and they had the large fuchsia and a medium white and the large would just work better for me. I figure black would be best for work and everyday. Wish the black had nickel hardware though. I'll post a pic when I receive it! I'd thought about a Selma and they are beautiful but I already have a saffiano satchel and I thought I'd go for some soft, squishy leather! 😉

I know how you feel about wanting the silver hardware. But this Riley doesn't have a lot of hardware on it, so I find I can deal with it, as I bought one in watermelon and just LOVE it!

However there is another bag that is very similar to the Riley, called the MK TRISTAN, only it comes with all silver hardware. The bag itself is in the same leather and shape, with the Zip top closure, open pocket on the back, only it has more decorative silver hardware on it such as buckles, chain on the strap and silver o rings. It really is gorgeous and I plan to get this one next! I already have one in Fuchsia and metallic silver. I am ordering this black one closer to the fall season.

One other thing that this Tristan has that i really like , is that the main straps are longer and can be worn over the shoulder, without the longer strap, if you want. My Riley, I have to use the longer strap, because the hand carry straps are too short. I still love it though. They are both awesome bags! But if you prefer silver, like I do, you may want to check out these Tristans. Most of them all come with silver hardware. I may have to order this sooner as they are getting very scarce! There are only a couple on ebay right now!

That Tristan is beautiful! It looks amazing with the silver hardware! I see what you mean about it having more decorative hardware! It's lovely! Yea I can totally deal with the gold hardware since there is such a small amount on the Riley.

I'm not a shoulder bag kind of girl. Unfortunately, I have shoulders that slope downward and have a terrible time finding anything that will actually stay put on my shoulders lol! I have a couple bags that work ok and I have a couple cross body bags too but mostly I'm a handheld/crook of arm satchel gal. So Riley will be fine. Plus I love rolled handles.

Thank you for all your input and info! I do appreciate it!! 😊

Yes, the rolled handles are really comfortable in the crook of your arm. The only thing is I have seen them crack, with the stuffing coming out. . Hope it doesn't happen to mine! Sad it's so hard to get much with the silver hardware. MK could make much more if he would just make everything with both! lol!
