Christmas accidently came early for me this year. My husband & I went into an antique store & this beauty caught my eye from one of the booths. She was a little dirty & her leather was extremely dry, but she was in good condition otherwise (no rips or tears, etc). After I did a little online research on her creed number, I looked up info on how to "rehab" a bag. I purchased her for $20 & got to work on my new project. I wish I'd taken before photos because she looked really faded in some areas (esp around the opening, the bottom, & the strap), but here she is all cleaned up & conditioned! According to the creed, I believe she is Hamptons Buckle (hobo?) from 2003, but if anyone has info on the actual name or what this burgundy/wine color was called, it would be greatly appreciated! I absolutley love her & had so much fun bringing her back to life. Thank you for reading & Merry Christmas Eve!
Wow, nicely done! She's a beauty! Thanks for sharing! Merry Christmas!
 
Hit the outlet today to use my tiered coupon. Only 3 deletes in that store :sad:. They did just get in some MFF hologram items. I picked up this purse charm $20 after discounts and a crossbody clutch $70.View attachment 3914286View attachment 3914287View attachment 3914288

Love your goodies! Can you tell me whether this oil slick bear came out recently or a while back? I’m really not up to date with outlet products. Trying to figure out whether I can still get this on FOS. Thanks in advance!

You did an amazing job on the rehab! I love your pictures. Your gnome (elf?) purse charm is adorable, by the way! Happy Christmas!

Hi! We stopped there Thursday on our way to the beach and they weren't out yet. When we stopped back in on our way home on Saturday, the SA said they just got them in. She said the employees weren't allowed to buy yet, but they were selling fast. I've not been invited to FOS in ages, so not sure if they will be on there or not. Hope you get one :)

So, the 2 things I bought from the online sale were supposed to be here on Thursday. JAX shipped them overnight as part of the "be there by December 24th" thing. Coach did there part...UPS did not. It got as far as California on Thursday, then a delay with a late flight message popped up and then it said it would be delivered Friday...nope. Then it said Saturday...nope. Then it just said delay. I called UPS and they told me they could not locate my package in the system anymore. So I said "Is it lost?" and she said "Maybe?" Fantastic. Coach would not send me a replacement because technically it was still "tracking in transit" online and they could not verify it as "lost." Finally they appeared magically this morning at 8am on my doorstep. Luckily these were gifts from me to me and not for someone else. I got the NASA dinky, which I bought when the sale first went live and they cancelled it after a week and the NASA accordian wallet. I had been wanting the wallet for a long time and went hunting for it in the sale section (since if you search NASA or space it gives you a message the collection is gone) and I found it by chance in the men's section. I did not know it was considered a men's wallet. I like the size much better than the women's accordian wallets. The dinky is my first dinky and it is a lot bigger than I thought it would be.
