Upon looking at the East Side in different lighting there in the store, I was almost sure it is not a true red, but rather a brick red. My heart sank because I thought I already found THE red bag. But it’s a nice feeling to be able to walk away instead of settling!

This is the bag I want:

Instead, I went for the card case from BV (discounted) that I have wanted for a while but exceeded the de minimis (in terms of paying duties and taxes).
Good for you, for not settling, even the price was good! For sure if you want red, you want RED… not brick!!!

And in the meantime, the card case is lovely.
 
Can you seal that hole? I had a similar problem but thank God was in an patio closet. I called someone to close the hole and put something under the door to seal it so no more mice would come in. There were some mice wondering in the back patio but after putting traps they died down. Good luck
I checked again, today and it´s the back wall of the wardrobe that has detached... it´s a shabby "appartment wall", no chance to get behind it and fix this. I just removed one of the doors to end the cozy atmosphere and now am waiting for hubby to put up some traps for just in case. I believe we caught the family to be during the last raid. We are living in an old house. There´ll always be mice sneaking in. With the wardrobe open now I at least will check it more frequently as everything is in plain view. Today I turned my room inside out, threw out heaps of things I don´t need and tried to make it less stuffed. Guess who has no motivation to buy anything new right now....
 
Ladies, I wanted to come here to share a purchase that I’m torn about but am 90% certain I will not follow through with. I tried this Chanel mini yesterday at the mall and I fell in love with the adjustable chain. I wear my Chanel 19 the most of all my bags (it’s an actual daily wearer to take my daughter to daycare, run errands, etc), and I know I would use this often. I do already have a number of small sized bags, but only the mini Lindy is black. I love this bag and am feeling pangs about not getting it, but I also know that I don’t need it and I’d rather just spend my money at H.
I see why you're torn… that adjustable chain is incredible! If it were me, I guess some of the questions I'd ask myself would be:
- would it steal uses away from the black Lindy?
- would it steal uses away from the other similar-sized small bags?
- which would I rather have: this bag, or $$$ to spend at H??? :graucho:

Good luck deciding. Keep us posted! :smile:
 
That bag looks so cute on you! And the entire outfit is perfect.
How do you see using the mini Roulis… as an everyday bag, an evening out bag, a supplementary bag? Does it hold much?
Thank you dear! I see it as an everyday bag, although my Beton could certainly be day to night. I carry next to nothing so don’t need much more room for an everyday bag. I have even stopped bringing a diaper bag when I’m out with my daughter for 2-3 hours! Sometimes when I’m with my husband it’ll be a second bag since we have the diaper bag too. But I generally will carry it as my only bag. I absolutely love this style and would go so far as to say it’s my favorite bag style from H.
