Thanks all! The colour is everything I thought it would be. I bright sunlight you can see that it obviously appears lighter but isn't an in your face purple, so this is probably a good choice for people who want a more subtle purple. Indoors, depending on the lighting, it looks dark purple to almost black. I love it and the versatility of the colour is amazing. I can't believer how good it looks against all shades of grey, particularly the lighter shades. Black can look too severe, so this is a great alternative.

Thanks for the photos! That is really pretty! I think this leather looks great in the MMS midi! I really love this bag and have one. I have thought of selling it once or twice b/c I didn't carry it in the summer (too dark in color), but then asked myself WTH I was thinking! It is a great bag and really easy to carry. I've gotten a handful of compliments on it too.

I have a swatch of aubergine and I love the leather. It makes the MMS look particularly nice.

Susa, it is Wine Sheen but this is another colour that changes depending on the light. I'd love Red Matte! Maybe we should start messaging Jackie, I know there are other ladies who have expressed an interest!

Me too! I think I need to go check out Bonanzle and have a second look at that style.

YESSS, we should message Jackie for having red matte in her future collections, I would definitely buy red matte (a red like the balenciaga RT, no orange undertones)

wine sheen looks very nice on your pics , vanBond

Love your bag, thanks for sharing. The MMS is my favorite BE shape (I just love satchels) and both of your bags look so beautiful. Looks like the shape goes very well with many colors. Now I can't wait to see my MMS midi in cobalt.
