@1Professor:  I'm obsessing over this bluish-colored bag at the bottom, which l commented on yesterday. Can you be an enabler, and give me a lead on the name of the bag and where you found the photo??


@Alas, @handgal, I can't refind it! It could've been on pinterest, polyvore, or a general google search. Tried again, but it didn't pop up. Since it's not on the brahmin site, I assume it's past-season?


Thanks, @1Professor. Stevieb also confirmed that it appears to no longer be available. That's actually a blessing in disguise for me, lol. No doubt l will promptly find another bag to obsess over!

Thanks for your reply, @stevieb. I found one on eBay in black, together with a matching wallet. But at $1,200, that's too rich for my blood! So it's probably a good thing that it's not available in the color l love. I'll have to find another bag to obsess about, lol.


@handygal2... That's truly ludicrous. I doubt the cost of that bag (even with a wallet) even approached that amount, though I could be wrong. Besides, it was that sort of slate blue color that drew me to the bag in the first place. I like black bags, but in this case, I think I'll take a pass too. It would appear that this is actually not a newer bag.


@stevieb:  I agree that the price is way out of line, especially b/c it's not nearly as striking in black. And l doubt that anyone will "bite." But l guess the seller thinks she/he is sitting on a rare commodity!


@handygal2 Oh well... not loving that elongated nameplate across the bottom anyway...

Re: October 10 is National Handbag Day: Buying a New Bag Seems a Duty!

I've been trying to be good with my handbag shopping but broke down last week and ordered a Sharif bag from the other shopping channel.  It was the Boucle' Floral Satchel.  It is truly a beautiful bag and it seems to be well made.  Now I'm trying to talk myself out of ordering another of his bags!
