See? Isn't that funny? I actually like the snap hook better, and I think I like the full size better than the midi in the Rock Me, which is COMPLETELY opposite of my normal preferences as I usually like the midi bags best. Hmmm...maybe I need more coffee?

Alrighty now... check out the model.... she's got a new accessory in her hand along with a protect me does she not?? Looks like a little pouch!! (I requested pouches not too long ago hoping for slimmer wristlets for inside bags like the Surprise Me!!) What do you all think?

Was I the only one who had a bit of a immature giggle at the new color 'root'?

Root w/ brass... ...yeah, kinda funny. Anyway, it's lovely.

I'm seeing a ton of Surprise Me pics in the new photography. I wonder if they'll be in stock, too?

I might finally be sold on a Love Me Midi w/2 zips in a nice, rich fall color.

I am a bit tempted by the I'm Beautiful Midi as an everyday bag. The Enchant Me is starting to work its spell. But the Rock Me just doesn't rock me. I like the look but it's not different enough from the current styles to lure me in. And it actually loses some functionality. Only one outside pocket ... plus, flat handles plus no messenger/shoulder strap just won't work for me.

Oooh don't!! I was getting all excited at the thought of a lovely little leather pouch, with a nice long leather drawstring so that you could wind around your hand and swing it around in a nonchalent manner whilst out walking down the street - in a nice soft leather, maybe even suede.....

I am going to see if I can change my bec order for the charm me in the dark purple matte to the Rock Me in the dpm. I hope they let me because I agree this bag would rock in that leather.

I'm sure they will. I emailed Jackie about the RMM in dpm! I guess I'll have to go break the news to my Hold Me mates if they haven't read it here already! But yes, the RM and RMM would be incredible in dpm! This is my final bag of the year! (Seriously!)

i really really LOVE the new styles,although the Rock me smaller looks a bit small for me, prefer the larger version. Love the Aubergine TMA too, but finally decided on a aubergine MMS midi as IMO the Rock Mes are still too like my LMM and TME's for me to warrant one; if i didn't have a load of TME's and an Aubergine sheen LM Midi i'd def get one... too much temptation - especially liek the new port and root shades, feel bang on trend for Fall....

sorry about this very ungrammatical post!!

I don't carry a laptop but I still want an I'm Beautiful as a work bag. If I hadn't already ordered a port Charm Me, I would get the port Charm Me midi.

I like the Rock Me too. As soon as I saw it, I thought I might want a zipper between the two rows of stitching. When I saw the I'm Beautiful, with the zipper between the two vertical rows of stitching, this only confirmed my first impression.

actually completely off-topic about the bags, but the model for the new bags is SO thin; i want to invite her round to my house for a square meal. i'm a UK 10 and she makes me feel really chunky!

Skin and bone! Reminds me of the cruel 'celebrity who has over dieted' pics in magazines.
