Beautiful bag, xooey!

I am also including 2 close-up shots of the back and the front of the bag, just to show you how thick and wrinkly the leather is. Both photos by ME!

Ooooh xooey, that's yum! Gorgeous leather!!
Thanks for posting. I am so looking forward to mine arriving!!

 

[xooey]

I need some fashion help from everyone. What sort of colours would you wear when you carry an Amethyst bag? The only colour palette I can think of is black, black and more black. I've never carried such a bright coloured bag before, so now I'm fretting over what to wear with the bag.

I also hope that those who're receiving their Argent bags in the next couple of days or so will chime in with their reviews and photos of the bag. Please do, you will be such a great help in my decision making! Thank you!

whoaaaaaaaa that amethyst color is INCREDIBLE!!! beautiful pics. thanks so much for posting!!!

 

[xooey]

Thanks everyone! I do think this is the best batch of leather from T&D this year. If you are waiting for your bag to be shipped, you will not be disappointed! Amethyst is my new .

xooey, that really is so fab to know!
And what to wear...?
I am planning wearing mine with everything. I do wear a lot of black anyway so it will defo 'pop' against that just great.
It will look great with jeans (light blue). But I also like mixing it up a little, I like clashing colours.... sometimes, if it's done right.
Have a play with your wardrobe and see what works for you! That's the fun bit!!!

xooey, your amethyst is GORGEOUS. I love how it's matte, saturated and distressed. This batch of leather's gonna sell out like the vert d'eau!

Thanks for the pictures. CONGRATS!

P/S: I also love how the stitching doesn't jump out at you either!

As to what to wear, I would go with neutral, "un-bold" colors - lets the bag pop the most that way!

Ahhh your GSH Amethyst is beautiful xooey. Still wishing I was able to get a GSH bag... The leather looks so veiny and thick!!!!

I think Amethyst looks great with black, WHITE (try some white skinnies).. black and white together, grey like a lighter grey or even a darker grey. I can see it with stripes or with some boyfriend khakis or boyfriend jeans.. the list goes on!!!

lol. someone on ebay is trying to pass off jacky's version of the AW brenda bag as authentic.

item 250455140296


by the way, does anyone know when will the authentic AW brenda (FALL) bags start selling?

 

[babybluestar]

cloudy: I wasn't calling shoegal out....I was just asking a question.

xooey: THANK you for those pics mami!!! So gorgeous!! I'm going to wear mine with everything. As amethyst_sparkle quoted from the show "What Not To Wear": "It's not about what matches, it's about what goes." So, amethsyt can go with all sorts of ensembles! It can be the pop piece with neutrals but it could also be worn with a busy print that has colors that go with amethsyt (I think turquoise would look great with that color).

LotsaBolsa: Amethyst sold out before the bags were even completed!!! I'm so stoked if it's even near as good as VD!!!

 

[lotsabolsa]

babybluestar: Wow, how out of the loop have I been about amethyst?

Alasse: You're good! I wouldn't have been able to tell it's Jacky's. Neither can anyone else, since it's fetched $400 already!

[jaydotcee]

[jaydotcee]

Pics with flash are most accurate but the quality of them is not the best as they're from my cell.

 

[PinkPrincess113]

oooh love your Day pinkdolphin!!!! also love the GSH..... sigh...

so is anyone gonna report the fake awang?? hahha or else i'll do it

 

[pinkdolphin]

Thanks pinkprincess - my pics aren't as good as xooey's though.
Xooey you really showed the beautiful smooshy soft leather

So glad I begged T&D to do the day - I think it will be a really practical bag - not hard to use at all, comfy and great for casual.

 

[bella08]

Oops, luv yours too pinkdolphin.

Thank you both for posting pics.
