This is so gorgeous, absolutely stunning. Hope mine with silver hardware looks just as good. Could you tell me which picture reflects the real colour the best? On different threads it looks quite wine but in others it looks darker - more purpley

What a beautiful bag!!

I'd be curious to hear if it looks more purple irl, too.

Also, is this the full-size or the midi?

I have a midi in the wine pebbled glossy on its way (just shipping today) and I thought I might even sell it once it arrives since I have too many new BEs lately. But, seeing your bag makes me think that I won't be able to let it go. That's the problem with BEs, I can't seem to bring myself to sell any....I find they all have a use and look that justifies my keeping them around.

2nd and 3rd pic look most like the bag in real life. I actually think it has purple undertones.. even though a lot of tPFers said it didn't (when seeing the swatch). Its very beautiful!

My tracking says it should be delivered today!!!!!!!!!!!
(Fessed up to DH last night - I just knew it would come today whilst he's at home, althought I still haven't told him about the 2 Mulberries I brought in February! He thinks it an illness! )

Yippeee the postman has just been and my WTM midi has arrived, with silver hardware, zipper pull on front pocket, light blue lining and magnetic clasp on secret pocket. Its absolutely lovely though till a bit stiff unlike my black glossy one.

Colour is hard to describe - certainly not as dark as Lionlaw's pictures and not as red as the ones posted here. Somewhere in between! I would describe is as wine with a purple tones.

Love the zipper pull as oppose to the tassels.

Just waiting now for my WTM midi in pewter, same details as above but with purple lining. This one will be my disco bag! (though too old to boogie now!) The wine and the black are more functional regarding business/ work.

For all you ladies waiting the arrival of your BE baby you will not be disappointed. Its versatile, good quality and the cervo leather is luscious and indestructable. I think 3 WTM midis is enough for now - though I could be presuaded by a SMM in purple matt!

I must admit looking for the next BE style - had a TME in chocolate matt delivered but didn't like it, so returned it. Not sure whether a SMM is the right way to go next, as everyone seems to love the LMs. What you think?

Mine seemed stiff at first, but the moment I packed it up and started to play with it... it just became a puddle of leather. I've only used it for a few days now... and its soooooo slouchy! :)
