Glad you got it when you did. Brahmins are always some of the first ones to get wiped out. [emoji4]
Tell me about Brahmin bags please?

I found this Brahmin Mini Duxbury Cross Body at Macy's. Silk color. It was odd to find it at Macy's as they don't sell Brahmin in the store, but do online. So, this bag was obviously an in-store return. Anyway, 30% off and another 30% off with Macy's Friends & Family sale going on right now. It is a sweet bag! Now, just need to find a matching small wallet.
Looks pretty!
All the Macy's interior area sell Brahmin in store. Very popular here.
My Macy's sells Brahmin in store. Maybe it's new or only in certain areas? I'm in Dallas, TX.
Found this beauty (the Brahmin Annabelle Satchel) in a local designer consignment boutique. It is like brand new with the plastic still on the medallion. The bag outside and inside is pristine. Got it for $100! Had to have her. I work in the legal profession and this bag gives me the professional look I want. But, I can still dress her casual with bag charms for fun. The Annabelle is a tad bigger than I usually carry but I will adapt! I also got lucky and found the matching wallet at Dillard's. I was surprised as this is an older model bag and wallet with the brassy gold hardware not the shiny gold. Love this matching set!
I agree about it depending on where you live. It's my understanding that Brahmin is very popular in the south. In CT, I rarely see Brahmin bags. With regards to the LV mono, MK and Coach Sig Fab....I see them coming and going....everywhere.
Brahmin is a quality but underrated designer handbag and that I suppose is why I am drawn to it. Not only is the price point agreeable but you don't see everyone and their mother carry it. A win win.
That IS the brand my mother carries. [emoji6]
Thanks.
She is currently upset because she wants a new bag, but only one style has long rolled handles and it is E/W but she won't look at anything else.
Has any Brahmin lover out there bought the Skyler wallet? I found a black croco embossed one on sale at Dillard's. Matches my handbag perfectly! I feel lucky finding it because the Skyler, particularly the black one, appears to be discontinued on the Brahmin website and not many to be had on eBay and are selling for more than I paid. At first, though, I thought the Skyler might be too big for everyday use, but it is growing on me as I love all the organization. I also love the scrumptious gold leather interior, the pull out wristlet strap, and a place for a pen. When I don't want to carry my bag running into the store or a night out I love how I can slide my phone in the Skyler (and I have the big iPhone 6s Plus). My fat car key fob also fits nicely in the left side zip pocket that has a gusseted end for larger items. It zips up easily and feels very secure. It is a nice looking clutch or wristlet. There are a couple cons, though (for me). The access to the Skyler seems a tad awkward for everyday use (again, the wallet is big - think standing in line at Dunkin Donuts to pay for your coffee & whipping this big wallet out). Also, it does not conveniently carry coins. So, I have been using a separate coin pouch for coins. Based on these cons, though, I kinda consider returning it. But, the pros definitely outweigh the cons. So, I really want to keep it. Any thoughts?
