Dangerous, isn't it?!! I had to forcibly extract myself from the pearl thread in the jewellery sub-forum the other day .
I'm going to restrain myself from any new bags at the minute until I've got this necklace business sorted out, but if I was going to get a new BE bag it would be a port RM or RM Midi . (Haven't quite got to grips with the dimensions yet, but the Midi looked quite small and the regular looked just about right on the BE model, but I'm guessing she's very tall....)
I so wanted a Rock Me, but the straps are pretty much the same width as the LM's and can't be significantly changed Rose has said - the LM straps do not work for me at all - they don't even pretend to stay on my shoulder! Plus I wanted the larger size in purple which, unless some colors aren't on the website yet, I'd have to special order meaning I couldn't return it if it didn't work out so as of right now, I'm not ordering. Also, I kinda discovered the Gucci outlet -yikes! I so wish I could try more BE bags on before buying - I know I'd buy more, but I simply can't keep ordering bags that can't be returned and having them sit in my closet or worse, be sold at such a loss, I'd might as well gift them.
Totally off topic, but I agree with you on the resale value. So far, the brands that I buy all seem to sell for more than half off but the BE are not moving at all. The thing is, I have a selection of many designers and when I put on a BE I still love it to death. So, I am buying them because I know what I like and what a beautiful bag looks like, but I will be more careful and make sure it's a keeper.

This is how I'm approaching buying now too. I am being careful of what I buy because I want to keep it, not resell it for a ridiculous price. Good for buyers, sucks for sellers! But I love my BEs!
Not necessarily fall collection bags but I've ordered a WTM in aubergine and a Make Me Smile Mini in matte taupe. Both will arrive in time for Christmas so the wait will be long but so worth it!
Which colours are you going for?
I ordered a port love me midi, a root love me midi and bec'd a cream cervo Rock ME with gold hardware.
