The Purse Forum is dangerous! Now I am wanting something green. Your choices Pixiechic were spot on! I love the blue with the green!

Pixiechic, I am THIS CLOSE to putting in an order for an apple green Charm Me. It's been in my BE Couture list since I saw your photos. But I need to practice some self restraint.

Wow, I really like the look of the Charm Me. What gorgeous bags you two have. I may have to consider one for myself!

I forgot to add this - this is what the Charm Me Mini looks like when the zipper is completely open. It's a very roomy bag. An LV Speedy 30 would probably be the best size comparison.

Wonderful thread-what a great reference tool! I love all the photos of the CM next to other types of bags. Thank you for starting this thread!

oh wow, the charm me is on my radar now. what a difference color has on the same style. that wine is so classic and elegant --- and yet that crisp green with the light blue lining is so fresh, it conjures up visions of a perfect spring day. enjoy them and thanks for providing perspective and scale on the cm.

OMG...just happened upon this and I am LOVING this bag. I would love to have a CM with longer straps....perhaps a chocolate matte or a nice fall color???? Although, the apple green is TDF!!!

Hip~do you have pix of this bag being worn cross body since you have the d rings on there for messenger wear????

Hi vixn, unfortunately I don't. I can try taking some with the mannequin I have but I don't think I can get to it today (I am down with the flu). The messenger strap works but you probably don't want to use this bag predominantly as a messenger. It would come in handy though for things like airline travel, shopping with the kids, etc.
