Here's what Charm Me Mini in Pewter Crash would look like ... I'm really enjoying mine!

The thought of a pewter CM had crossed my mine and these pics. make it very tempting. I just ordered a port CM and if I love the style I may want a pewter CM or CM mini.

... perhaps I should clarify and say that this was an individual bespoke ...
BUT it is a fantastic style ... I'm liking all the "mini" versions.

Bluefish, I had been wondering what the CM would look like with TME handles:-)
It looks amazing in pewter!

^^ Thanks, hipnycmom! I really like the rolled handles. In general, I think they stay on my bony shoulder better.

Is it big enough to fit a laptop or am I better off with a Make Me Smile or a TMA Original?

The Charm Me Mini can hold a mini laptop but is too small for a 13-in laptop. The regular Charm Me is probably big enough though the MMS may be a better option.

I have to say that I'd never seriously contemplated a Charm Me until I read this thread and looked back through other TPF threads.

I've succumbed while the leather sale is on and will be the proud owner of a Dark Grey Matte Charm Me with Purple Lining towards the end of the year.

This will be my only "structured" bag from BE, all my others are the more slouchy styles like Hug Me, Stroke Me etc.

Very excited!

I can't wait! TPF really should be banned - it is seriously bad for my wallet. Thanks for the quick response on the laptop issue, I've gone for the CM as I won't be using a laptop in it everyday, so I think I'll be ok.

I love the MMS but as I don't have a money tree and the price difference is almost £100 in BEC, I decided to be "mindful" (more influence from this forum) and go for this one.

I probably shouldn't have even done this one, but it was such a bargain. I don't even want to look at the new pictures that will be on BE's site mid August as the temptation will start all over again. I told Jackie she really should have a Tempt Me bag!
