New bag love!

So. About two minutes after this post, I did indeed purchase the Kooba Ada from eLuxury. I love it.

It's absolutely gorgeous, and completely different from anything else in my bag wardrobe. The first few days I carried it, I kept looking at it thoughout the day, thrilled that such a beautiful thing belonged to me.

Oddly enough, it's not as big as I imagined it would be, though the size is true to this picture. Actually, it's a good thing it's not bigger, because it's a heavy bag. Also, mine had quite a strong chemical smell, I assume from being stored in closed boxes at the eLux warehouses. Store-purchased bags might not smell, simply by virtue of being out on display in the open air. At any rate, all the bag needed was a good airing out. It hardly smells at all now.

I've gotten several compliments on this bag, including a fellow employee who went into an orgasmic swoon touching and stroking the leather. All in all, I'm very, very pleased with it, and I'd have to say that over all, it's one of my favorite bags in my collection.

Today's bag: Kooba Ada.
