Thank you. It sounds nothing like the effect of Peltro then :(

I love the style and ease of the Cabat so I can see why you have 3!

I LOVE the mineral - it is like an iridescent white pearl. gorgeous! they did it in a woven EW tote as far as i have been able to find out, but in NO classic styles which really irks me. i am not a fan of the EW tote because tomas did these markings that to me look like pock marks. those marks are supposed to be marks of a meteor shower.

Not to enable you, but the reflect is NOTHING like the platino ossidato.

Looking forward to hearing your impressions.... and why not post some more pix for us! reflect is so hard to capture. Unlike boxermom (which goes to show how hard it is to describe this color), I feel like the outdoor pix from bryan look nothing like the reflect i played with in SCP.... the sunlight washed the richness and sheen out of the bag if that makes sense.

Are you confusing it with the color "Calandra?" Reflect is only made on the medium Cabat.

Thank you for your input, doloresmia! I don't know whether to be happy or not happy that it's different enough from the platino ossidato that I could conceivably own both.

I can't wait to see this bag in person. I'll definitely give my impressions and post photos if I can.

The SA assured me that other bags and slg will be made in reflect, I asked her on two separate occasions. I saw a men's wallet in reflect, stock code 113112 VK811 2026.

Now I'm confused

Does anyone have any info on the Feniice Matita bag? I believe this was the one my SA showed me, but I can't be sure. I think it has a coating on it. Seems really durable!

This is the E/W tote that is also made in mineral. Like what doloresmia said, I cannot get over the meteor shower marks (pock marks)

Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I love that color!! I am dying to get an elephant Roma. Ever since I saw it on page 73 of the early Fall catalogue (that's how much I want it - I memorized the page number ) it has been haunting me.

ReRe - please give us your thoughts on the color, as well as the new wallet colors, ie, lilac and grape! I am dying for another IRL opinion. Thanks!!!

ETA - Sharon also said that the Cervo bag in elephant is getting alot of interest.
