Yea! So very excited for you and I hope you love it as much as we do. It's such a versatile style and it's one of those totes with dimensions that I think are 'just right' if that makes sense. Holds a lot but not so deep it becomes a black hole, outside pockets for water bottles (a must in Texas), keys and such for easy retrieval, and I really do love the leather. I agree that it needs to be moisturized to really bring out the brown tones. Let us know when you get it!

One more thing--I think this is the perfect bag for creative types--readers, writers, photographers, artists, etc. The outside pockets remind me a bit of the old style book bags with outer pockets for pens, journals and such. i have several small notebooks and way too many Sharpie pens in my bag at this moment And I love it that way.

Hi Tejas, I just have to say that now I understand your enthusiasm for the London Tote MIDI. I ordered the reg size London Tote, and I loved it and couldn't imagine anything smaller. Now I have a London Tote MIDI and I love it too! I love it for all the reasons you say -- it is a real handbag that acts like a tote, it can be as big or as small as you need it to be. I think the whiskey bespoke is a classic order -- really luxurious looking. Enjoy! I too am loving the red leather...I've always wanted a good red handbag. But I want cross body straps...so maybe a Rio in red? Or a Florence in red?
Anyway, thanks for your infectious enthusiasm about the LT Midi. It is a GREAT bag.

TG, I'm so glad that the midi worked out for you! I know it's hard to judge sometimes and what works for one person may not work for another. The London Tote Midi is that bag I carry pretty much anywhere in any condition and I just love that aspect. It's deceptively roomy without looking like I'm getting ready to board an airplane.

Does everyone who still owns the London Tote midi in whiskey love their bag as much as I do? I love this style and leather it is easy to carry and wonderful warm leather.

Wondering if the original bespoke members are enjoying their LTM in whiskey.

gorgeous!
