Default Midwest relocation program complete: Mini Ormala
She's here! Mini O in bordeaux has arrived! I've not gotten any pictures yet, but MM said, "good" and dh said, "that's beautiful." The leather is so soft and wonderful, and the color is really a chameleon. She looked deep brown in the shade, then purpley in the sun. Just crazy how different she looks, and I imagine she would look very different with different outfits Excited to try her on with some clothing.

Here's the original preview post for her: Mini Ormala in Bordeaux Production Photos

That's awesome, NC! It's always a good thing to adopt unwanted mini O's!

I'm so glad it arrived! I saw it did today and wondered if you were happy. I'm glad DH approves. You'll have to do some photos b/c my skills are lacking!

Yes, it was there when I got home from the post office myself. They were closed, so MM and I ran off to the UPS store.

Dh didn't like the pics of the bag online, but when he saw it, he was impressed. I will get out of focus pics (my specialty) as soon as I can.

With the soft leather, I can totally see how the handles would be hard to get solid and need double reinforcement.

^^Totally quick.

FT, I was thinking that I should change the thread title since you're in the Midwest, too, right? So this is just one bag in the Midwest program

MM is wearing Mini O right now and examining Veronica Max. The poor kid has no chance of a career except fashion, eh?

Mini O is so comfy, and I love the feel of the leather. I've not taken her out but have carried her around the house. Not in love with the color, but I suspected this would be the case. Not a complaint as I bought the bag with the suspicion, but I also think when I pair her with clothes that I will like the color more.

...why did you get something that you didn't think you would love the color of? The color does sound wonderful to me, and I hope you will love it more with teh different outfit options. This bag sounds amazing and deserves to be loved! And you, of course, deserve to have a bag you love!!

Now.

Totally amazing!!! She's great with the dress I wore today!!! And she is the perfect style! Fits everything! Everything!

Euridice, I knew I'd like the color but wasn't sure it would be love. But the style and feel of the leather are so excellent. She's great! I really want an ostrich one but sigh...
