Guys, I need some opinions here.

I wanted to buy a Pahsli in Large size, but can't decide which color to go, Taupe or Black

Can you guys give me some opinions such as what do you like or don't like the color. I'm 5'7 and don't have any black or taupe bag.

I have a medium black and a regular in taupe. I wear a lot of blacks and now that it's almost summer, i have been using the taupe more often. I thought it was huge when i got it being that the medium black came first but the taupr grew on me.

As what the others have said, you can either base it on what u usually wear and what your gut also says. Goodluck! 😃

I just found the Pashli bag, and I don't really have any experience with Philip Lim. But the bag is very pretty, I especially adore the Mini Version!

I am thinking it might be a bag I would want to get in the future, but I was wondering how long the Pashli Mini will be available on sites?

I don't think I will be able to buy another bag before fall or even winter, since I just recently bought two.

Does anyone have experience with Philip Lim bags and knows how long certain models are available?

TIA! :)

I think the mini looks the nicest too. I have one after getting rid of one I had a while back for its size (I dont carry much either) and Ive not used my new one because of its size. The only reason Ive held onto it is the colour but might be time to give it up soon :cry:

I have seen the red one! It is very pretty! I have my eye on all the colors with gold hardware.

Is the new or the old bag a mini? I'm confused :p

I think the mini looks more structured in a way and the zippers look rather small on the bigger versions. On the Mini they really stand out as well as the buckle and flap. Some bags I just prefer small :)

Both, I had a mini in rust and used it a few times but I couldn't fit enough in it and because of where the strap is attached it would flip over and tip everything out if I didn't pick it up a certain way. So I sold it and got a medium.
Then I got a great deal on a mini in sage so I snapped up up hoping to give the mini another go but haven't been able to bring myself to use it yet. Scared of it flipping, waiting for a day that isn't sunny so I can leave my glasses behind, etc.
Starting to think I should just sell it while it's new but I love the colour. Jealous of those who can make the mini work.

Yeah I think it probably has to be picked up by the handles?
You should try to make it work one more time. If I really love the look of a bag, I will deal with some impractical features ;).
For small bags I downsized everything, I have a tiny wallet for smaller bags with just a few cards and bills and a very small Make Up Zipper pouch, I only take a few Make Up items.
Sunglasses stay on my head if not worn, shirt or even hung onto the bag :p

It all depends on which colors prevail in your wardrobe? And what is your color type (spring, summer, autumn or winter)?

I have a lot of black and also a lot of white and neutral colours in my closet. It's rare for me to wear something super bright.

I do love both color but i feel this is going to be a heavy duty bag so maybe black will be easier to take care of (I can throw it on the ground etc.) Taupe would be easy to get dirty?

Thanks for your opinion:)

Hey Ladies,

I was wondering if Philip Lim 3.1 pashli's age well? I'm college student, and I can be pretty brutal to bags, so I wondering if this would be a choice for person who carries an iPad, and a notebook?

I'm currently lusting over the black& iridescent medium pashli

I have several Lim pashli bags, in both the large and med sizes. I have found them to be durable. One of my bags got liquid spilled on it and there was no stain when it dried, I was very happy and impressed. They can get a bit heavy, so when shopping for your bag, bring along several items you will be carrying in them and try it on filled. You may also like using the shoulder strap as an alternative. I hope you enjoy your bag. :)

hi everyone,

I am quite new to Phillip Lim bag. But recently i finally got one! (the left one without the rabbit fur)

And it's the mini pashli studs one with nickel and brass in black.



i do have some questions, did anyone see this style or own this one?



Some details are different to the classic pashli.

- no serial number in the back of the inner pocket

- no "3.1 Phillip Lim" engraved on the zip pull rings (all three rings; two in the front, one inside)



i am so anxious now...

Hello @shaochun! So I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but I recently purchased the exact same bag and mine DOES have both the signatures on the zipper pulls and also the serial number embossed in gold on the underside of the inside pocket (AH13-0226SDV) like all of my other Pashlis (I have four total). Where did you purchase your bag? Perhaps you can get a refund?
