I had the XL in eggplant, it was nice, but then I sold it and started buying all LV bags. I still carry mostly LV, but couldn't get my mind off this bucket style. Once I found it in black, I had to have it. It came in deep purple (eggplant), ivory, and navy, and not many were available in black for whatever reason.I wasn't aware of this style until the clubhouse forum bumped up (maybe you asked a question about it on there?) and now I really want one! So pretty!
