The Cupid Bag

Ha ha, I know! I very much go for styles rather than brands, although Balenciaga is my favourite ever brand and I plan on buying another in December.

Aside from Bal, if I see a bag I like then I don't generally care what designer it is, I will just buy it. I must admit I was hesitant to get the Cupid only because I read about hardware problems and I just pray mine will be OK! Compared to my other bags, the hardware does feel slightly flimsier but the issues seem to be hit and miss so hopefully mine will hold up! It's too lovely not to take the chance!

xbbabe, I'd love to find a chocolate bag like your Cupid
does it have the zipper pocket on the back side? and it's silver HW, right?
Just wanting to confirm so I'll know if there may be another one out there
There's a nice black one on ebay but it has gold HW and I'd really prefer chocolate with silver
Will have to patient I guess
 
Has anyone got the cupid in the rose gold leather? I think I might be in love but can't find many pictures of it - does anyone have it? Is the leather lovely? Is it too shiny or just right? What is the lining?

Any and all help appreciated - unfortunately there is nowhere to pop in and see one in Australia!

Love how the Cupid can be my formal bag and at the same time it can be quite rock-a-rollish. :cool:
 
I'm looking to get the Cupid bag, I saw a great deal on amazon. I am looking at the almond color
http://www.amazon.com/Rebecca-Minko.../ref=lh_ni_t?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

It dopesn't seem to have the back zipper pocket- does anyone know why?
Also is ths one of the newer ones- that dont ahve as many quality issues- i can't seem to tell

Also on Amazon there are differnt measurements based on colors- is this a mis print, or all all cupids suposed to be the same.

There are also different names for the bag, top handle, shoulder? Are they all the same?
I laso heard one has a longer strap- which on e is this one?

What do you think of the price of this bag?

the newer Cupids don't have the back zipper....they changed that a year or two ago
I would say if it doesn't say mini on the description the bag is a standard size. The measurements on this ad look too large. My Cupid measures approx 11 X 11.
Price looks good if this is the color you want and you don't mind not having the back zipper.
I don't know about quality issues with the current Cupids.

Thanks for the reply!
how much room is in the front pouch? would it hold an iphone?
 
I ended up taking the plunge.
I had an extra 20% discount coupon- so that sealed the deal

For $184 shipped I thought it was a great deal!

I hope this will be an everyday bag that I have been longing for!

I didn't realize your were getting that extra percent off

I've seen that color IRL and I think it's nice....hopefully you'll like the leather
