haha i agree with j0vena! the pictures don't do it justice. It's a really rich shade (not orangey at all) its very similar to the saddle color the regular groovee comes in.

I've seen it IRL before, and the color just didn't do it for me. But then again, I'm not a huge fan of orange at all!

It really does have very prominent orange/tangerine tones....it's a much more saturated, brighter shade than Nice Tan (just look at methcat's picture a few pages back).

methcat super cute! love that tan

j0vena · Mar 14th, 2009, 04:42 PM

tan also works better for me because i only wear neutral colored clothes and sometimes navy blue or green. and im reeeeally preppy. like button-up blouses preppy. :T

I like the tan too and bought it. I think it's a great tan color with orange undertones!

yay! *high five!!* lol imma dork. it kinda reminds me of the chloe paddington in whiskey that i really want but cant have yet. :P

I think the tan will look way better w/my outfits than the blue (too bright for me).

it's not as orangey as it seems!!

i agree!

the tan color makes the luxurious, thick pebbled texture more noticeable as opposed to black where it doesnt show as much depth. the purple was tacky. the blue reminded me of a normal blue bag you could get at target. if it was blue, i would prefer a more jewel-like tone or something more unique.

methcat · Mar 15th, 2009, 03:54 AM

yeah! The blue would look horrible with just about everything I wear haha

I'd use a deep brown one for sureeee though...

I haven't gotten to use mine yet :( I love looking at it though!

j0vena · Mar 16th, 2009, 02:48 PM

does anyone know if the mini groovee will come out in anymore colors?

bjoy7 · Mar 20th, 2009, 06:12 PM

Does anybody know if this bag can fit comfortably under your shoulder using the smaller straps? Thanks!

I'm planning to get one for my 30th bday

Can you guys let me know if I should get the faded aluminum or wine?
The faded aluminum in the neiman marcus site is different from the shade of the faded aluminum in Zappos. Has anyone seen this shade IRL?

thanks much!
