Well ladies, my Matelasse's arrived from Bluefly this evening. I have to say, what gorgeous leather~ both the black & brown are TDF!!!!!!!!!!! Too bad I can only keep just one:sad: I've checked them over & they look authentic to me. I'm going to be posting several more pics in *authenticate this* so if you ladies could check it out in a bit & help me out;) I'm trying like heck not to break those flimsy little "do not remove" Bluefly tags. They taped the handles together:Push:

congrats, acegirl!!! :yahoo:

oooo, the matelasse bags are gorgeous!!! I wasn't sure I liked them when they first came out but they really grew on me! I love the black one!!

how fun that you have the option to pick the one you love!!
 
I want the brown one! Saw black and brown at Nordy's today (they were NOT marked down) and must agree they are both stunning. I guess I will have to keep watching Bluefly for returns!
 
authentic for sure. the black looks exactly like mine that I paid RETAIL for at NM. I love its shiny silver hardware, too. It really fits the bag. I almost feel like the brown would've looked better with antique brass, though. Hmmm. I say keep one, sell the other on ebay! (or return it so another member can grab it). As much as I adore mine, i don't think it's a bag you need in brown and black both.
