Yes, Santa Claus, There is a Virginia!

Oh, that's just wicked beautiful. More photos please! And yes, I love the thread title!

the only problem is, I can't post the divine SMELL of my Virginia. I had wondered if some of the yummy aroma was coming from the suede lining of my other bags, but no, it's the leather. It's delicious.

The fuchsia #60 is a structured, fairly matte leather. It is a wonderful dark pink. In my wristlet, it actually feels pretty soft.

I am in an office with windows and it seems even with my good camera the color washes out a bit. I'll post pics I just took that I think are closest....

thanks, pinkshoulders! More on the way!

Looking down on her a bit:

The back of her:

A lot of light shining on her, I guess, but you can see the pebbling really well.

STUNNING! What are you wearing with Ms. Pink? I am thinking back and I am not sure you have ever posted mod pics? Today would be a great day to start!!!

OMG, what a BEAUTIFUL color!!! Puts a big smile on my face, such a happy colored Virginia! Congratulations and enjoy!

After seeing how the light washed out the color a bit, I turned the lights off, and my office was fairly dark. I then took these using only light coming in from the windows. It shows just a bit too purply. It's straight up dark pink in real life. A very rich color.

I'm also noticing that the very messiest parts of my actually rather nice office are showing in my pics. dur!

How pretty! I love the title of this thread too!!

This is really funny. I don't recall it being like this when I unpacked it. But, the tabs don't go on top of each other like I believe they are supposed to. This is the best I can do since they repel each other:

But I can put them together like this, and that's fine.

Interior shot, the turquoise lining is beautiful. It's a bit washed out here.

You may have noticed the the left side is not folding in a crisp as the right. That could have happened in transit, maybe it was a little overstuffed with the paper. I think I can get it to fold better.
