you mean the colorblocked painted one? I've been looking at so many bag photo links I've lost track of what's what. I love my jewel tones, but I'm not on the purple band wagon as much as reds and blues and greens....
So this camel Willis became a little project of mine and after bathing it I decided I was going to decorate it with some vintage ornaments that are special family treasures. So I found old patches, pins, and I made my own tassels and this bag is a work in progress. I've never decorated a bag before none the less a Coach bag but I thought what a perfect one to do it to! The color is perfect, a light color palate and its really not VINTAGE because its from 06' and its made in china so I thought why not?!?!
That's funny because I dunked a BT Willis last night. I was NOT looking for a Willis, but I've had my eyes open for a cheaper way to get a BT longer strap for less than the $30 it would cost to buy a replacement, or at least with a bag that I would carry and just use the strap for more than one bag.
So I find a deal on a badly listed Willis and had to LOL a little-I'm going to eventually do a thread on my Willis story...but anyway, I really don't need another BT bag of this size and I kind of thought of doing something different with this one too-I didn't have anything particular in mind, but sort of the same thought process-it's a newer bag, they're kind of a dime a dozen these days...how can I make it special?
But now that it's mostly dry, I'm kind of in love. It might eventually end up being my daughter's bag, but the problem with that idea is she'll probably want the strap. For now I'm not going to mess with it though.
It's at the stage in the drying process where it almost dry, and is just gorgeous, you can't see the flaws when it's at this point.

I will share pictures when I'm done but I'm really excited about it. Its going to look very bohemian!
So for now, I don't know her name. I Found her for $15.40. Love this style. She's dry as a bone, and has scuffs, etc. but the inside was shockingly PRISTINE! like she'd never been carried...not even a trace of tissue lint or anything!! But the outside almost looks like she was used as a pinata on the bottom edges...not sure what the story is on her but love her lots!!
