Good point!! I couldn't believe the price of the Trio when I first saw it. :confused1:
Love your greys! Sometimes I miss my MM midi Minerva pearl grey like yours (regular flap length though). But pebbled Minnie just didn't work for me and I'm much happier with my nappa one without center zip compartment.

Vink - I'm always wowed by your Granville!!

Bake - love seeing your cutie Speedy! Get well soon.

Thanks! [emoji4]

I don't get the Trio raves so...
(In whispering sound [emoji16]) I have a midi Minerva in pebble coming. Someone posted hers on a group BST this morning (my time) and I just have to snag it. It's just perfect for what I'm hoping for. Longer front flap with middle compartment. (I know many girls opt out of it, but I'm dying to try it so... [emoji4]) in a light color, too. [emoji4] I'm feeling a bit guilty for being on a roll lately (I'm still madly in love with Bluey, the BD bag) and seriously I have no excuse for buying. [emoji28] Curiosity killed the cat? [emoji28]

My grey/taupe/nude-s
nothing fancy, i don't use them much, but whatever i have is here:
left to right
Prada soft calf with funky plactic chain handles, lovely bag, but not an every day work horse, sees the day light a few times a year
BV Large Veneta in Poussin, is used regularly enough
a'la Python cow skin print tote, made in Italy, still brand new, one of my few mistakes made in the begining of journey, she is a nice bag, but just didn't work for me, waiting for a right moment to be either gifted or sold.
flat round pig skin bag, which is dear to me and will remain in my collection forever :heart: my DH gifted it to me for our 3rd anny, he chose it all by himself....
above it another Italian no-brand hobo-like bag (with a ribbon), it was my work horse for quite some time, and it's quite handy, but i just had enough of it. So, she is still in the collection, but most probably will be either gifted, or used as a beater bag.
then comes MK, cow leather, snake print, small hobo, one of my few very first "high end designer" acquisitions... i don't use it any longer, i got many a lot better working for me hobos, no idea why i still keep it... it is in 'like new' condition, and i should probably sell it...
my first ever BV - Sloane in Aurora, gets enough use in a year but i am babying it :) she is my first one :)

I can understand why you bought that python bag. It looks very nice. Too bad it's not working for you. I hope you can figure out what to do with it soon. [emoji17]

yes, totally... it looks great in the photo, but me being a hobo/slouchy bag gal, didn't get on with its fixed and structured shape and angles.... shame...

It is in exploring where we discover what works for us!

I hope you will like it!! Can I let you in on a secret too? I just ordered from Colette last night - a dark blue Verona Angelica! An Easter celebration. :smile:

i need someone to talk me out of getting another H scarf...
or enable :D
i am looking at a plisse version of a regular carre scarf, never had anything like this .... no idea if i need one....
cw should work for me, sakura pink border and white background, 'le flacons' design....
are there many ways to wear it? i am expecting a few floral ones to be delivered soon (i posted earlier, russian traditional ones), plan to wear them with leather jacket and jeans, boho and casual way ... H will be (if at all) a dressy option when i need to add a last touch without going too aggressive (unlike my first one, flame red, which needs red lipstick and fully done MU) ...
your comments and reasonings are most welcome! :flowers:

Shall I kick of grey week? I have one grey bag, and one that is taupe, but it looks fairly gray to my eye!
My grey bag is a Balenciaga Town, with rose gold hardware. Sorry for the humungous photo! :amazed:

My taupe bag is a Mulberry small Bayswater double-zip with silver hardware. Shown here with a leather "apple" charm.

It sounds very pretty and lovely for summer. And I think it's good to try something different now and then, so I'd say give it a go! :biggrin:
