I love my new (to me) Chocolate Paddy TO BITS!!!! To BITS do you hear me over there, my baby??!!! ;-) :-D
I love the Paddington, it's so detailed and quality. It's very close to what I would make a purse (but I wouldn't make locks, personally).
I have a picture attached, too!
Anyway, I saw a bunch (whiskey and grey were nice, droool for the grey) at the Boca Raton Neiman Marcus.
What I did, since I missed out on a huge Net-a-Porter sale, was hunted eBay, and I got mine used and half off. <3333
Now the Paddies are VERY addictive, more than any bag in my research. And I know why. It's my #1 fave bag, because of the details (and that I would make a very similar bag, myself) and the buttery leather. I want one eventually in Mousse (a grey blue from the photos I've seen, MAJOR droolage). That should go with everything, but I still love brown, because it's my ultimate purse colour.
And I also want the wide Edith Satchel. I hope I can find that - it's all gone off NM.com! Yeah, so Chloe''s aren't just all Paddingtons. Here's a link to my fav Edith:
