Lambertson Truex Bag Event At Tiffany

HIP_311584344.302523

My gal at Tiffany invited me to peep the new collection of Lambertson Truex designed bags at the SF store. I arrived freakishly early - even though I left terribly late! My timing was such that I was the very first person to arrive at the store - nearly 15 minutes before the listed start time. The staff kindly let me in. Cocktail in hand (blackberry daiquiri) I met John Truex (thanks to the very kind store manager, Giles!). Mr. Truex gave me very kind compliments on my little vintage black bag (from one of the shops down my street, now closed), and walked me through the entire collection.

I tried on every bag there. They were yummy! I adore the hint of Tiffany Blue in each bag and fell in love with two of them. The main object of my obsession was already sold out - the reversible tote in silver/blue is gone (but, will return).

(I wish I could have snapped a few more pics but, the place was JUMPING!)

My SA told me that Lambertson Truex is doing ALL the leather goods for Tiffany now so, we let Mr. Truex make his way around the now arriving guests, and perused the rest of the new goods. I promptly discovered the most delicious studded gloves! They came home with me!

Yikes! I've been slacking! Here's another pic from my "Destination D" trip - I stayed at the Disneyland Hotel in a newly swanked room. Here's my AWESOME view of the Neverland Pool.
