and actually I really liked it. It is a subtle color and goes with everything. How many have you have bought cannelle bags, wallets. Do you think the color is for a mature person? The SA said it was very popular.

I am not a "fan" of that color, but I do find it attractive, and probably, practical. I am not sure if I am purchasing any items in that color.

I guess by age, I would be considered a "mature" person, but I like the vibrant colors. I usually find a way to incorporate these colors year round in my wardrobe.

There is just something about the Cannelle that I don't like. I can't really explain it. I guess it's just kind of dull looking to me. :shrugs:

I have a Tod's bag that is a little bit darker than the Cannelle and I love it way more.

I always think that if I am going to carry a brown bag, I'll carry a Damier (or my lone monogram, a well-patina'd petit ellipse). Epi is where I think about splurging on COLOR (or elegant black). But brown epi doesn't really fit in the picture.

I've got a Cannelle Alma. It does look a little more classic (matured) than other epi bags. It don't think it fits a teenager yet it's definitely a good bag for every 20 something.

I agree with many of you that when I first saw the colour on paper/internet, it looks dull and something's not right about it for an epi bag. And thought gold hardware would go better with it. However, when I saw it in person, it's a totally different story. Gold hardware doesn't actually go with the colour IRL (even the speedy above doesn't show its real colour IMO). And it definitely looks better IRL too. I love the Cipango Gold Alma and had been searching for one, as soon as I got this Cannelle, a forum member was selling hers on ebay, it was so hard for me to decide to return the Cannelle and get the Gold or keep it. I think I am keeping the Cannelle, the more I look at it, the more I like it and the Cipango Gold looks a little dated. Cannelle is a really versatile bag and easy to use.
