Finally!!!!!!!

After months and months of waiting, my Bottega special order FINALLY arrived!!!!





The wait was SOOOOOOOOOOOOO worth it!!! I was jumping up and down while I was at the Bottega boutique and all of the SAs were congratulating/laughing at me :) Ever since the color Turbulence came out for the Spring/Summer 08 collection, I've been talking non-stop about it. During the Spring/Summer 08 collection I thought the small Campana would be fine but when it actually came, I was a bit disappointed at the size. I went ahead and ordered the large Campana in Turbulence around late July and now its finally MINE!!!! The best part?? I'M THE ONLY ONE IN THE WORLD WITH THIS BAG (in this size, this style, this color)!!!!! Bottega special orders are 30% more than the regular retail price BUT guess what?!?!?!?!? My SA skipped the 30% increase since my wait had been longer (due to the August holiday in Italy)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This bag totally made my day...I haven't been able to stop smiling :) To go ahead and special order this bag will probably go down as one of my best shopping decisions EVER. I love the color, the style, the size, and of course...the buttery soft leather that is Bottega Veneta.

BTW...the lighting sucks in my apt so it was really hard for me to take pictures of my bag so that the real color would come out in the pictures. The pics above were all taken at different lightings but hopefully it gives you an idea of what the bag looks like...
