while perusing the handbags in TJ Maxx recently, i ran into my latest bag crush. i was drawn by the beautiful camel colored leather, perfect size and gold hardware (of course!!!). though i carried her around the store with me, the price tag kept me from running to the checkout line. i convinced myself that we could never work- her color was too light and i would stress about keeping her clean. eventually, i put her back ready to never see her again. after i left the store, i realized i didn't even get the designer, a name i've never seen before. the next day after my crush grew into a full fledged obsession, i could not for the life of me find anything on the web that looked or sounded like the designer's name. i had two choices: let it go and accept that we were never to meet again or call the store and ask for their help identifying the bag. if you have ever had a true bag crush, you know there really was only one choice... soooo, after about 20 mins on hold and two (or maybe three) customer service associates, i finally had my name - Clio Goldbrenner, a designer out of Belgium. Her bags are fabulous and, so far, are not really sold in the US. i'm sure you're wondering...did i ever get that bag? sadly, no, but i have hopes that she and i will meet again someday real soon. - sesheta
OMG!!!!! I bought the bag that you left behind in TJ MAXX! It was love at first sight! I saw it on the shelf at the store and grabbed it immediately. I wanted to be sure no one else could get her so I put her in my shopping cart and stared at her! I decided it was worth the um, (high price) but I had to have her! It was the exact size/shape/color that I was looking for! I own MANY designer bags, but I receive more compliments on this bag than any of the others I own. I just googled the Clio Goldbrenner name bcz I have never heard of it before, and ta da found a picture of my bag! I love it and it's worth the price I paid!
