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 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 togetherush:
