i like the black-on-black. questions though:

1. is it real leather?
2. do the chain straps hurt?

thanks!

Her items are vegan, so no, it's not leather. I'm actually not entirely sure what the material is, but I tend to prefer how it wears so well--I've had some nasty spills on some of my Stellas and they've always come out without a problem. I also think the material is pretty durable. As for the chains, I've never found them to hurt at all and I cram mine full with a laptop, textbooks etc or use them when I travel and cram them full of random crap then. The bag can sometimes feel heavy because of the chains, but I think it isn't that noticeable and I love all of mine.
 
Question about the shaggy deer finish - can it take getting caught in the rain (not soaked, but how does it take water?) Also, has anyone had color transfer problems? I got the cornflower which is a bright blue and wondering if it will get denim transfer? How does the shaggy deer hold up to dirt? Does it get dirty easily? Thanks!

These bags hold up well. I have a duck blue and silver Falabella. I got black grease on one of them and with some coaxing using a white flour sack rag, water and mild soap it came out. I have spot treated these bags with a fair amount of water and they dried perfectly. I never had and color transfer from my jeans. However, I did get some yellow transfer from a chartreuse t-shirt on my silver bag, but got it out with water and mild soap. IMO they don't soil easily and they hold up well to water, even a lot of water. :)

Good to know, thanks!

I can echo this and have posted several times in here about the beating my Stellas have taken. I've never had a shaggy deer one, but my normal falabellas have all held up better (stain and transfer wise) than any of my other bags.
 
Farfetch is having their presale. There are a lot of Stella bags on sale up to 45% off. Maybe for U.S. only, not sure. Just picked up a beautiful navy for under $800 including shipping. :)
 
Hi guys

I just ordered my first falabella online and can't wait to get it in the mail! I have been obsessed with these bags for the last 2 weeks and it has seriously hurt the hours I actually spend on work rather than googling pics of celebs with falabella bags!

It is little sad that stella doesn't get her own forum here on TPF but I hope this thread gets a lot more traffic so that we can eventually have one of our own!

Would love to see more modeling pics from those who already own Falabellas and even pics of their bags out and about!

Will post some pics once I get the bag from Europe...

I agree. There doesnt seem to be much love for these bags on here. I think they are great bags. Out of all of my designer bags my falabella gets the most compliments.
