Does anyone have the Pashli in blush? I'm thinking about getting it (I already bidded on one in eBay, oops!) and it would be nice to see more pictures of it :) I've always had black bags but now I'm willing to try something new (still not too colorful) that would fit my monochromatic wardrobe and all seasons.

Hi all,

Just got this guy in the mail from the Barney's Warehouse sale :) black hair & croc stamped leather...

I'm wondering if anyone has a Pashli with the croc embossed leather that can help me out... the leather is extremely stiff, especially on the side panels toward the bottom & I'm wondering if anyone has advice on the best way to condition it.
The croc pattern happens to fall so that the croc panels meet right where the bag bends and i'm afraid that the leather will crack. I can even feel the edges when I run my finger along the side (i'm attaching pictures because this sounds confusing). This is only an issue on one side because of the way the croc pattern lands.

Long story short, i'm planning to contact the PL customer service, but wanted to see if anyone here had any tips. I'm also thinking about reaching out to Barneys to see if they can send a different one if this can't be remedied.

Any thoughts/advice? TIA!

This is my new Pashli bag! I have decided to go against getting black for high end bags for the simply reason that many people buy black because it will go with everything. After a while you will end with lots of black and neutral! As I look through my wardrobe I am a very jeans and white shirt kinda girl with silver jewellery. I didnt need another beige or black bag so Orchid it was! Super happy with it, medium size, fits my textbooks and notebooks for uni with the zips closed. Will take some time to get the flaps to stick out more with use. Very early x-mas present. My wardrobe (UK) always have great discount sales with free international shipping. Couldnt resist. Hope you ladies enjoy =)

Has anyone had any challenges with wear/tear on the medium pashli crossbody strap?

I have a medium in cobalt on order and still not 100% sure I plan to keep it.

Thanks!!

Any additional feedback you all may have on the length of the crossbody strap on the medium pashli. I don't carry many bags by hand and will likely carry it on my shoulder or as a crossbody; however, I am only 5 ft so I want to make sure it is reasonable in terms of length. Otherwise, I'll be returning it!

I'm 5'2" and often carry it on my shoulder using the strap and haven't had a problem. I tucked the excess strap back into the loop on the strap and it hasn't bothered me since.

It is quite easy to add more holes to the strap (or you can take it to an expert to do it). If you love the bag and the strap is the only thing that bothers you, I don't see a point in returning it because that problem is easily fixed :)

Very pretty! I got my medium pashli in cobalt today and it was quite cumbersome and heavy on my 5 ft average sized frame. I'll be returning it to Neimans in the morning, unfortunately.
