^^Ha, ha, you mean my way too "wordy" reviews! :p Thanks guys!!

Well, I just got the stuff, and the croc was the FIRST one I opened!! D&blover, you have order NOW!!! It's really pretty!!! I love the color. My only small issue is the dye consistency. I think it's nice to have highlighting and shading, of course, but there are some small spots on the back that look like the dye didn't take well and some scuff marks already. Thus, I may swap this one. Overall, though, I really love the color, and I'm seriously thinking about getting it in pink as well! This may depend on what I do or don't like out of the other box I'm about to open!!
 
Oh, before I open the other box, hee hee, I forgot to say the other thing I don't care for so much is you guys remember the magenta Bleecker duffle? I HAD TO HAVE this bag, and still have it, lol, but the strap was a different type of leather and different color than the body. It's not bad, but it's something that I noticed and wished they had matched it better.

Well, the back side of the long strap and the handles have this same issue...it's a smooth DARKER pink color, and it shows when on the shoulder. IMO this detracts from the bag, but of course, not enough that I am going to care! It's definitely a keeper, but I just wanted to mention that.
 
Oh NO.... I can't say that I'm sold on the woven hobo AT ALL! :shucks: Now I really miss the days of the woven bags like the Zoe and Juliette, slim tote, etc!!

They mixed PATENT with leather to create this...patent is on the handles and side trim, as well as woven throughout. Not sure I don't think this is kind of cheap looking. :s The leather part is nice on it, but it's definitely not what I would consider a $800 bag. Of course those dang charms are REALLY cute.

That should not be a reason to keep the bag, right?? :shame::p
 
OMG, the square satchel is my FAVORITE!! I just kept staring at it!! It's a bit large (east/west) as a satchel on the arm on me IMO, but with the shoulder strap, it's not bad on the shoulder.

Again, a dye inconsistency I don't like either, so I have a feeling this one for sure will get swapped. Aaargh! :shucks:

I don't have time to post any pics.... Consulting SA now...:p
 
^^Ahhh, I was trying to get this worked out with my SA. She's a real doll and has ordered me a replacement square satchel. This one (in lavendar) is low at JAX. The domed satchel has not popped up as avail, yet, so you would have to do a backorder. At least as of a day or two ago. BTW..the square satchel is as wide as the large Lily!! I just had them out comparing them, but I'm not sure what's going to happen when the paper is removed. Of course I don't let a little thing like size stop me....can always get that wheelbarrow out to push the bag if needed! ;)

The woven one turns me off for $800, so it's very close to being returned, but the patent does glisten in light, which is very pretty, so I don't know! If I've ever needed opinions, I think this bag is it!!

The croc carryall is gorgeous IMO! Just the darker pink parts underneath is what turns me off, but it's a keeper! I think I will probably get the pink as well unless someone posts and I can decide on the color for sure.

I will post pics as soon as I can, I promise. Not sure I will do a reveal, but I will at least post the pics here.

Did anyone order the pink color in the carryall or even the Maggie??
 
PICTURES!! You are killing all of us!

I'm still super jealous of all of you Americans that get your peyton inlaids within a few days. They told me they can't even attempt to order it until this Friday and it likely won't be here until the new year :(
