Can't decide if I should get a black Pashli medium or meli melo thela... I love the buttery leather of the thela and the slouchiness, and it's unlined so probably lighter than the pashli?

but the pashli looks soooo good. $825 vs $760.

Am 5'1" and about 110lbs... Help! :(

Didn't manage to catch any sales as well. Sobs!

I personally love the Pashli's structure and instant-recognition zippers... but the Thela also looks very versatile and cool. So I guess it depends on the look you're going for, or the outfits you usually wear. Either way, a great decision to be making!

I ended up going for the Pashli, thanks for the advice! The Thela was gorgeous but I guess it looked a little huge for me. But I might still give it a try the next time cus I'm a sucker for buttery leather (I already have 2 structured bags now!) :graucho:.

Waiting for my Pashli from ShopBop! Super excited! :D

I was in love with the pashli and bought one in taupe last week! I have only used it once and realised that the bag is not the right fit for me.

Given that I bought it from Phillip Lim store in NYC, i cannot even return the bag since they do not accept returns - so now I am trying to sell it, and it has been impossible:( so frustrating.

Referring to previous posts, I too was debating between the Meli Melo Thela and the Pashli! I guess I will get the meli melo if ever I manage to sell my pashli.

I needed a new bag for work everyday and I fell in love with the pashli. I really though it would be perfect, but once I put my shoes, lunch, pencil case, laptop in it, it's too heavy for me to carry.

I would love to keep it and use it on days where I don't carry as much (since I absolutely love the look of it) - but I'm in need of a work purse!! So I guess I'll have to sell it and find something else :(

I own one too, black in colour but now, I intend to sell it. Initially I thought that it would be a versatile bag for work and play but I have issues with the buckle. It's a struggle for me each time I have to reach into my bag and for someone like me who likes things on the go - it is inconvenient. No doubt you can carry the bag unbuckled but I rather secure it.
I DO love the bag and had been eyeing it for some time but I think I will settle for a bag with zipper to carry my stuffs and baby stuffs in
(and also with front pockets) like the LV Reporter GM. .. :shucks:

Hi all,

Just had to share an amazing deal I stumbled upon this weekend. By a stroke of sheer luck I found a medium cobalt Pashli at my Nordstrom Rack for $275!

I had my heart set on a large in black but for that price I just couldn't pass it up. It was definitely used and returned (due to Nordies amazing return policy no doubt) as the original tag and dust bag are missing, and there is a small stain on the lining which won't be visible to anyone but me... but for that price i'm not complaining! The cobalt is beautiful in person, I can't wait to wear it :)

Went back to my phone & it was gone, went back to the laptop & it was available...anyway I snagged one- THANKS!!!!
