I’m totally in love with my new small N/S Uptown in color 2749 (often referred to as Peru)! I originally was eyeing the Uptown in the larger sizes, but found them a bit clunky in store and hated the short strap. Though I liked the adjustable crossbody length strap of the small N/S, I wasn’t too enamored with the normal color offerings (black, red, cream). However, once my SA mentioned they’d be receiving a few of the Peru color, all hope was not lost. I first saw this color in the Vicky, but ultimately opted against it for other reasons. I also thought it might work in the Nolita….but that ended up being a no-go as well.
However, once this Uptown arrived it was kismet….so amazing with the shiny glazed calf and gold accents! I feel the glazing should help ward off scratches and transfer issues (we’ll see, these pics are after wearing it 3 times, and it still looks pristine).
I’ve also posted a color comparison, to my medium envelope in 2622 (Oak/Cork)….which I find has more yellow undertones than the Peru.
Of course, this version of the Uptown has Celine Nano vibes…which also piqued my interest. However, while researching I was happy to find that the Uptown measurements seemed larger…..and indeed it is.
So, it fits a bit more than the Nano, and I love the handles can go up/down.
Such an amazing bag IMO…and of course the front envelope pouch with the Cassandre logo is removable (although, I personally don’t see myself using the pouch on its own, although it’s good to have the built-in option as people are buying them separately for that purpose).
