I have a large Ink Pashli and the color is stunning. I vote for the Ink. You can absolutely wear it with everything. It looks sophisticated but still not as serious as the black.

I agree. I have a medium in ink, and the color is beautiful. I was also wavering between black and ink, and when I saw them side by side, I liked the ink so much more.
 
It looks great on you! We are definitely built the same and the bag doesn't overpower your figure at all. I'm just worried that it gets heavy. Do you ever wear it with the long strap?
It does get heavy and the strap do come in useful although they have such a weird placement for the strap.

If you were to every use the strap, ensure that the bags are zipped up and clasped or all your things will go flying about. :-s

The Pashli is heavy even before you put stuff in it so I seldom use the strap because it is hard on my shoulder. The placement of the strap I believe is such that it is meant to be worn as a crossbody. Nevertheless, I love my Pashli. I love the structure of the bag and the leather.
 
Yes please let me know how it compares to your medium! My only concern is that I hate the bag I carry now because it isn't hands free so I might eventually buy both.


So I finally had a chance to use my mini this past weekend and love it! I purchased the mini to use as a weekend bag and to be hands free since my medium cracked leather is my everyday bag that I just can't get enough of, but get nervous using it when I do my flea marketing and what not, lol. The mini is the perfect cross body bag and is roomier then I was expecting! I would absolutely still recommend the medium as an everyday bag, but I also recommend the mini as the medium's weekend counterpart! :) LOVE!
 
I'm so glad that there is an ongoing thread about the Pashli and I've loved reading all of your comments! I've been obsessed with the Pashli for ages and I finally got up the courage to buy one. I chose the iridescent in medium

I'm OBSESSED with this bag and am so glad I waited for the iridescent finish because I am not a fan of neutrals and the front panel really adds excitement to the bag. I hear what you all are saying about the strap, in my case I am planning on using it to carry books and paper and such, so in that instance I plan on using the strap, but I'm not a huge fan of the messenger bag look for it's own sake so I definitely prefer to hand carry. In other reviews I heard that the bag smelled like plastic, but mine definitely smells like leather. I'd also heard that the strap wasn't very adjustable, but my shoulder strap can adjust down to very small. The latch IS definitely a pain but if you have the strap-holder-thingy clasped, the straps sort of hold the top shut anyway so I have been leaving mine unlatched, I would probably only latch it if I were on an airplane or public transport.

I sort of feel this urge to buy more Pashlis because I love this one so much but ultimately I don't think that any of the other colorways have captured me like this one has.
