I saw this Miu Miu tote on Saks.com last nigth as they sometimes put on more new stuffs although the sale has been going on for 2+ weeks. It's listed at $1295 and on sale for 30% off, so about $900.

I have always wanted a bow bag although I don't really need another bag of that size.
I thought this one has similar style although I'm not sure if it'll be too big, or if the shape is a bit weird.

If you have or have seen this bag, can you give me some advice or honest opinions?By the way, I got the one in black/nero. I'm planning on using it as a work bag as I always carry documents that's about a binder of letter or A4 size.

thanks!

Hey
this bag is definitely much bigger than the bow bag and I think its a completely different style. not sure "how big" it is when its broken in and slouchy but I think it will fit a lot. I once saw a denim one in the shops.

This is how the black one will look like.
I went to the Saks store in South Coast Plaza today and they have many miu miu bags on sale. There's even a coffer series bag on sale...too bad it's not my fav. style.

I should be receiving the bag next week....I'm hoping it'll slouch or extend a bit when I actually put things in there.

My concern is that the bag seems a bit too "long" on one side.

I have seen this bag in store for a while now. It is a bit long as you stated. However, if you carry a lot this would be a nice size bag for work. I personally feel is a bit on the " long" side but it's a good deal and maybe wait and see of that suits your style .

I'm a little concerned with the size being a bit too big and too long. I guess I will have to wait till how it looks when I actually put things in the bag. Def. will let you know!

I like the bow bag but I don't really need another bag of that size. Plus it won't fit my work stuff.

The bad just came this afternoon. It is in deed too long, and one corner of the leather seems super distressed compared to the other parts. This bag is going back to saks.

I think I'll probably just wait and eventually I might get a bow bag. I have a balenciaga city and a mulberry alexa as well. Both bags are similar in size as the bow bag. Now I'm debating between miu miu bow bag vs. Proenza bag. Anyone here that likes both?

Here're some pictures I snapped with my iphone. Sorry image quality isn't that great and I'm in my PJ.

Overall the bag for me is just too long. Also the leather quality is not consistent throughout.

Saks--- I was lucky cause it was brand new...and this line of miumiu bags is actually made in italy, unlike the matalesse line made in turkey... Been using it and I do like it because of the size, ease to carry, versatility and shiny leather with gold hardware :)
