Thanks, everyone!

rei35 - This is the small size. The large one would be about twice as long, so there is no mistaking which size it is! You can see the difference in the photos posted in the Miu Miu sales thread (go to the end and work backward)!

Congrats on your new bag. I just bought one from BH sales too.
can I check how do you double up the long strap to create the perfect shoulder strap?
i think it look great that way. :)

To tell you the truth, the SA did it and I left it that way LOL!

Let's see if I can get yours done:
You unhook one side of the strap from the metal ring of the bag.
Then, while grasping the metal part of the strap, thread the metal under the ring that you just unhooked it from, outside inward.
Pull through to the other side to meet the other hook and clasp on the same side. Voila!

Did this make sense?

The strap is the perfect length, but fyi it does not "sit" flat when you are using only the handles. I simply carry it along with the handles, it's neater looking that way!

hth!

Congratulations! Please post pics and let me know if you're able to adjust the strap!

beck77 · Dec 18th, 2008, 04:20 AM

hi girly! i absolutely ADORE your bag! i've only recently fallen in love with miu miu so i'm relatively new to this. i was more of a chanel girl before but chanel prices are getting way out of hand :( and miu miu has awesome prices AND they're all so girly and pretty!!
anyway, i'm looking for that bag as well and i was wondering if you could pm me the item number for this beauty! TIA!!!

girlygirl3 · Dec 20th, 2008, 11:46 PM

Thanks, Tara! I just pm'd you. I love miu miu bags, but so far I only have 2. It's so difficult to decide which one I want next and then it's gone!
Please also see miu2's post of the new collection, which includes this one in a new color:
New items from miu miu beverly hills!!

Hth!

Congrats on the lovely bag! I regretted not getting this RT0383 when I saw it at our local store.When I last checked it out, only the black is available.

I love it in Amarena/Lampone/Fumo/Grafite/Muro,and preferably in silver hardware.

oranGetRee · Dec 29th, 2008, 09:44 PM

This bag wasn't on sale at Miu Miu NYC but I am so happy for getting it!

Introducing my new Vitello Lux in Amarena!

The SA showed me how I can double up the long strap to create the perfect shoulder strap! It works so beautifully!

I just love this style of bag. How does it close at the top...magnet? Does it have a zipper pocket and cell pocket inside?

Great color...looks FAB on you!

Thanks! I really love the pop of color, especially in new york winter!

There is only a magnet tab at the top, no zipper, but I don't have a problem unless it's overstuffed, which I don't do. There is no cell phone pocket but it has a nice zipper pocket that's pretty deep and can hold my cell phone, lipstick, pen, some mints, my metrocard - quite handy!

I was so close to get that too when I was looking at my wallet but didn't think the color was me

waiting for the white one.

girlygirl3 · Jan 6th, 2009, 08:13 PM

I think it would be fun in the new s/s colors!
