in my opinion, yes.

mundo runs and hides from the roma lovers


I think the relaxed style of the pyramid will be perfect for your lifestyle. also, single handle bags, especially hobo shaped ones, are soo practical when you have to carry little ones and deal with all their stuff.

I tried on a Ferro Roma this weekend and I found it too business like - lots of great compartments if you are going to use them. I'd go with the pyramid. Ferro is a great color.

I love the colour ferro! I also do think of the Roma as being quite business-like - almost briefcase-y (but a very, very beautiful briefcase!). The Pyramid sounds like it might be much more practical in your case, Savannah. But really I don't think you could go wrong with anything in ferro!!

Savannah, you won't be disappointed. Ferro is a beautiful color that goes with just about everything. The pyramid holds a ton of stuff if you need it to...it sits well on the shoulder and it zips across the top if security is a concern. It's a beautiful combination of style and color.

Hi Savannah (waves) I have 2 kids as well and the ferro pyramid is beautiful and would work perfectly with your lifestyle. ITA with everyone here that the roma is a great bag for people who need it for work but it is mostly a hand held bag and I found it difficult to wear over the shoulder. The ferro pyramid slouches beautifully over time and you will love it more and more. I love seeing Chanel people on this forum as well, I love both brands equally but feel like I'm a contradiction because Chanel is all about the logos and BV well is much more understated, but I still love both my Chanel and BV collections equally. Many Congrats on your new bag and enjoy!
