I don’t own one but might suggest a mini. I personally don’t like cramming things into my bag or being unable to close it. The mini is a great size.

I agree the mini is a more versitile size. I am torn as the colour combo I want (Camello/Sun) is on it's way out. I can only find it in stock in the mini mini on Selfridges.
I am really desiring this colour combo - the Rosa interior is not contrasting enough for my taste.
My everyday bags are a mini Givenchy Pandora and a mini AW Rockie (both in black, want something more tan) which amazingly fit a Kindle when needed and my other essentials (cardholder, 2 phones, keys) and I don't carry makeup besides 1 or 2 single items.
I have the pandora and it fits a ton- this bag is definitely smaller. Sounds like you have made up your mind so just get what you love.
Hi all, what is the process for repairing a MG item? I have a bucket with peeling glazing and wondering how to go about getting it looked at by MG. It was purchased at Barneys. Normally I buy LV and I just take it to the store and at times they will repair for free. Not sure with MG as there is no free standing location near me. Should I take it back to Barneys? It was also a pre-loved item so I don't have original reciept but I do have the Barney tags. Many thanks.
Per MG's website, "

It's not clear whether they will repair without proof of purchase from an authorized retailer after a year, or for a fee. I know they will do it within one year.
Do Mansur Gavriel bags ever go on sale, apart from during their sample sales? I live in Canada and been wanting to get a mini sun bag for a while but they are hard to find here and even less on sale. Was just wondering if US department store ever have sales on them?
I haven't paid attention to if Neiman Marcus or Bergdorf includes them in promotions. Your best bet is waiting for a good cashback discount (15-20% off which happened last weekend) or finding it at a smaller online boutique that may mark it down. Also check out 24 Sevres, sometimes they have a good cashback and a site wide discount.
Hi!
I got my first MG bag in black flamma (sp?). It is the rainy season here, so I was wondering if I can treat my bag with Apple Garde spray before using it.
Any thoughts?
TIA
ETA: it's a small tote

Thanks! But would it make a difference if I spray it? I'm just being extra cautious.
