I'm wondering if it depends on whether you liked it from the pictures or not? Cuz I think I was part of the minority who thought it really didn't look that great just from seeing all the photos, but I saw it IRL yesterday and I tried on the Saleya Azur and it was gorgeous! I love how it looks now - but I have to agree on wondering how it'll look once the handle patinas. I like it now b/c the whiteness of the handles basically match the cream in the canvas pattern.. but I wonder whether I think it'll look weird.
I guess the test is to wear one of my mono bags to the LV store and hold some patinaed leather beside the azur canvas to try and get a sense of it...
