I just love that red. saw it at my Neimans and was drooling all over it. I can't tho because I already have one red bag. :( so I just have to live vicariously through you.

hope u get to keep her.

Yay CEE! I'm so happy for you!
You MUST keep it.
What are the odds that such a vibrant red will be released again?
I'd keep it.
Plus, from now until the Emile arrives, just start selling off some RMs that you no longer use, or see yourself using. :)

Oh BTW, what I'm really dying to know is,

What fits inside?!?

In some pics it doesn't look that much smaller
but in some pics the difference is overwhelming.

and last but not least... what can fit inside!

whew! told ya it was pic overload!! and weight-wise, (this is all subjective now hehe) but they actually both weighed the same to me when I carried one on each arm. Rocco's weight actually never bothered me. I'm so used to bigger, heavier bags and got used to it so fast that i consider him a lightweight bag now!! lol

thanks for letting me share!!

thanks betty! me too! i'm literally sitting here petting him right now!! lol the thought of having to pick between rockie and emile.... i pre-ordered the lizard oxblood from saks but it wont be here until August (and still don't know WHEN in August....) i think i may just sell some other bags so i can keep both!

ur welcome B&B!! hehe boy oh boy are u quite the enabler!!! yeah girl, i'm thinking the same thing! sell off some other bags i don't carry as often so i can keep BOTH! can't wait to see that oxblood emile... omg, ive wanted an emile since i got into AW! but i'm worried about the similar colors since they're both in the "red" family.... emile is a dark red/burgundy and rockie is this bright true red...

the size difference is quite substantial.... i would say it's ~20% smaller at the least.... maybe even more! but it fits everything I carry in rocco on a day to day basis without all that empty space on the top, KWIM?? i like rocco for traveling since i can fit magazines and my big makeup pouch but i think rockie is PERFECT for everyday!

Cee,
pssssh Cayenne and Oxblood/burgundy are FAR far far from each other.
That bright true red is hard to come by and it's such an excellent POP against any outfit.
The Emile is a perfect bag for fall, but while it's still summer, enjoy the heck out of Rockie!

--I'm definitely getting an Emile for fall too. It just seems like a perfect shape for fall/winter clothes.
