Phew! So it took me about 10 minutes to get all the wrapping off the bag, but it was worth all the effort ha. Will upload the rest as fast as I can, but first a lil' tease. [emoji85] 
I got the Medium Pashli in Silver (AW14, I believe) and I'm in love. I was afraid it'd be too big, heavy or long for me, based on all the reviews/posts I've read, but I'm so glad none of that actually bothers me.
It's not that heavy (my Mulberry Postman Lock Backpack is much heavier), the size is perfect for me (I'm 1.64/5.4") and although the strap is long, you can easily shorten it. Please don't mind the attire. I'm working on my dissertation from home today, hence the yoga pants and super old sweater. [emoji23]
I tried different ways to 'style' the bag and wear it in different ways to show it proportionally. Hopefully that'll help those who are hesitant or aren't able to view the bag in person! The only negative thing I've noticed so far is that it's quite difficult to close the clasp when the bag's empty/flat, and the side zippers are quite difficult to zip up/down, but that's probably because it's new. End of ramble.
Edit: I'm holding my iPad as I'm using it as a remote to take pictures, fyi. I'm not that weird lol.

Ohhhhhhhh.... you ordered the one im struggling with! Its pretty. The silver not that shiny right?
So hard to decide if the peach white the silver or the palladium with gunmetal hardware... ahhh

Oh great choices! The Silver is not shiny at all. It's got this great metallic finish on, and the leather makes it look amazing.
I'm just in love and can't wait to wear it out. I think it's such a cool, yet sophisticated colour. I could see myself wear it with most of my wardrobe, so I'd decide based on that! Hope my pics helped a bit though
Thank you!
fashiolista: ja you did you took the silver back to the game 
Do you think the not struktured leather from the palladium with the snake gonna scratch easily?

Gosh! It's GORGEOUS! I'm soooo tempted by this bag. I think I want it in the mini. But, I've just bought 2 others this month so, I need a couple more of my current bags to sell! C'mon eBay!!!
Thank you!
Oh my, 2 others? I'm jealous! Which ones did you get? The mini is adorable, but now I've seen the size of the medium, I'm so glad I didn't go for the mini, as this is just big enough to fit daily stuff in without having to carry a mega-big bag. But yes, I totally recommend this colour!

[emoji136]🏻 I'm not sure as I've never seen it, but the one I've got will definitely not show scratches (which I love about it). Is it patent leather or smooth? If it's the latter I guess it's inevitable to get some scratches on it, but I guess it really depends how careful you are!
Fashiolista: It is smooth. Here is a Link to the bag. (I don't know how to post it here) Its Snake in the middle but the up an the sides look like they really sensitive... does anybody know something about it?

Just did a quick browse, apparently smooth leather is very very scratch prone. Check out this thread, p. 19 (app) or 25 (desktop). It's post #361. Hope this helps!
I have a medium Ashli in glazed leather. I believe it is the same material as the one above. So far I was able to polish all scratches out and it still looks great! Glazed leather is stiffer want from patent leather and in my opinion easy to take care of. It doesn't scratch like smooth leather. However, it will also depend how you treat it. I can post pictures once I get home.
Any one here around 165cm height have Pashli medium size? I would really love to see mod pic if possible! TIA
Oh yes some Pictures would maybe help me. I just can't decide and i can't order all 3 just to look at it.
Thank you!
