that's a good price! from the stock photos the new lavender is closer to an Ovaltine brown. i'd prefer the old lavender, which has a purple undertone.alright i'm sitting here staring at this lavender cupid, for only 350$ total (including shipping and tax etc,etc and it will be delivered this week). should i get it!?
i wonder how the lavender is IRL!

yeah i'm trying to decide what colour it really is! thats the trouble with online shopping i suppose isnt it!? when i bought my taupe mini mac, i thought from all the photos (and even some of the comments!) it was a really really light colour, and yet mine showed up much darker than i thought!
i'd really like a lavender colour bag, but i'd like to steer clear of it being too brown-ish! there isnt many photos of the lavender cupid around, does anyone own one and mind showing her off a bit more? or describing the colour?
it would be a great help! 
agree! it's like gambling, even for the same name of the color, the color is different if the bag is produced in a diff season. very frustrating to me. what helps? see more and ask more. thanks to many experienced minkettes here who are very nice to offer their help.yeah i'm trying to decide what colour it really is! thats the trouble with online shopping i suppose isnt it!? when i bought my taupe mini mac, i thought from all the photos (and even some of the comments!) it was a really really light colour, and yet mine showed up much darker than i thought!

i'm not 100% sure but the Cupid in the new lavender available on Amazon is brownish to me. i don't have a lot of shopping exp with Amazon but so far all of the bags i've received from them have the exact color as shown on the website - very minimal color difference, the color of the real bag may be slightly (very very small degree) darker than the bag in the photos. so based on this, i tend to think it might also be a little bit darker in real. i've tried to search for mod shots but failed. i found one listing on eBay which contains a lot of room photos, hope this helps http://www.ebay.com/itm/REBECCA-MIN...D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557
Actually that helped so much! Thanks, I really appreciate it!
It seems a bit brownish to me as well! Not that I don't love it! But trying to tighten the purse strings a bit, and even though this is a great deal, maybe I'll wait and pay a bit more for the black one I originally wanted! (Is this shopbop coupon overhead a sign?!
haha)tell me about it. i just purchased a bracelet from ShopBop :giggles:Actually that helped so much! Thanks, I really appreciate it!

Well speaking of deals & cupids - there are some good deals on ebags for a few colours right now! 299!
I don't have a pic but I bought the lavender in MAB and immediately returned it. Color is a taupe brown, no hint of lavender. The lilac color out now is a nice pastel light lavender lilac. I have this in MAC and rely like the color.yeah i'm trying to decide what colour it really is! thats the trouble with online shopping i suppose isnt it!? when i bought my taupe mini mac, i thought from all the photos (and even some of the comments!) it was a really really light colour, and yet mine showed up much darker than i thought!

ah really? thanks for the info! its too bad the colours dont match the name, but i'm grateful for all the help i can get here!
glad i passed on the "lavender" cupid then!I know this thread is about cupids, but I'm wondering if you could post some pics of your taupe mini mac? Doesn't have to be in this thread. I just want to make sure it's the same taupe I'm looking for before I buy it on Saks. Thank you! :salute:yeah i'm trying to decide what colour it really is! thats the trouble with online shopping i suppose isnt it!? when i bought my taupe mini mac, i thought from all the photos (and even some of the comments!) it was a really really light colour, and yet mine showed up much darker than i thought!

if you look for the color of the lavender flower, i can share with you the Viola MAC Bombe that i just got is in that color. but i'm not sure if you can still find Cupid in that color now. from the stock photos the new Viola Cupid doesn't resemble the color of my MAC Bombe.ah really? thanks for the info! its too bad the colours dont match the name, but i'm grateful for all the help i can get here!
i havent seen a viola cupid on the sites i check on (which are ones that ship to japan! haha) but i love the colour purple in general! if your MAC Bombe is the same volour as the lavender flower I bet it is just beautiful!
i heard that RM has launched a flagship store in Ginza. あなたは日本人ですか。i havent seen a viola cupid on the sites i check on (which are ones that ship to japan! haha) but i love the colour purple in general! if your MAC Bombe is the same volour as the lavender flower I bet it is just beautiful!
Yeah, I think she has! Tokyo is quite the distance from me, unfortunately! Maybe sometime I'll stop in there and be able to have a look at all her wonderful bags in person!
