I just know that it's in the "boston" style... as in LV speedy shaped but with longer handles so you can put it on your shoulders. That is what I was told by the SA at Aloha Rag. I'm only guessing that it will be somewhere between the size of the city and work.

Thanks girls for the info!

Wow, the price is significantly higher than the Step and it seems to be about the same look and size. Hmm, will have to see if the price justifies the price.

Default Questions about the Midday...

Hi guys i had some questions about this style. I love the pic of this style that was posted from the Bal site and now i'm wondering if i should get this style instead of my City. I thought this was a new style for this Fall 08' but in the celebs w/ bbags thread i saw pics of Demi Moore with what looks like a Midday.
Celebrities with Bbags ***PICTURES ONLY***
Does anyone have more info about this style, like size compared with a City, PT?
Also, anyone know what the color Charbon will be similar too?

No dimensions, but I did talk to someone who has seen it, handled it, tried it on at market. Supposedly, it's bigger than a city, smaller than a work; looks tubbier and rounder when sitting down, but doesn't have a rigid bottom to make it bulky; will definitely fit on the shoulder; only comes in giant HW variations, not classic; and while a lot of places will probably order the bag only in the "new" collection colors, it was/is available in other colors. It all depends on what retailers ordered. My understanding was no shoulder strap, but I didn't specifically ask and don't see a place for one.

Reminds me of an LV speedy. I like it though. The giant harware suits it.

Thanks for the rundown! It's interesting that it's actually available in other colors and not just the collection colors.

I am anxiously waiting for news on the midday too! Do we know yet for sure if it is coming out in pre-collection colors or F/W collection colors only?
