Too soon to tell, but I think the Dearling will get the most use. Each bag has its purpose. The Induro is great for travel and when I need to carry lots of stuff securely. The Wander bag is great for everyday shoulder bag. The Dearling is a great cross body bag.
Mika Jito bags have a sturdiness and structure that just screams quality construction.
Access to the Dearling — opening and closing — is so much easier than an Hermes Kelly and Constance.

After getting the Mirus Puffy I took the Birkin and Kelly off my list. The opening and closing would drive me crazy.
I've been tossing around the idea of going bespoke as I have a few "holes" in my purse wardrobe that need to be filled in terms of size/color/purpose, and I'm tired of waiting for the right one to come along! So the research is ongoing and I'm trying to figure out with which model to begin.
Can anyone who has the Mirus 30 tell me about the closure? One of Mila's IG videos showed it "snapping" closed, almost as if there is a spring. Is it secure/does it stay closed until you pull it apart? Is that what the little strap around the handles is for (to keep it closed)?
I see a Wanderbag 33 in my future as well. Do the handles stay on the shoulder or does one sometimes slip off?

It stays closed until it’s pulled apart. I think it’s magnetic. The strap is just for shoulder carry, nothings to do with closure.
Honestly, Mirus 30 fills my Birkin 30 needs. I much prefer Mirus closure as I find the Birkin sangles to be too fussy for a small Birkin. It snaps shut, easy to open, looks clean with option to shoulder-carry.
Hope it helps.
Yup! If you scroll back enough on her Instagram page you’ll find videos of her adding the magnets. (They are thin rectangular ones if my memory is correct)
Very neat and clean closure
Regarding the Wanderbag handles, it depends on your shoulder structure. If you have sloping shoulders, the handles will likely slip off. When I shoulder carry the bag, I try to have the outer strap cross over the inner strap IYKWIM.
The Jade interior is sooooooooooo pretty.

Hi everyone! Lili recently completed my beautiful Dearling 26 in rose millenium alligator skin with bordeaux goatskin interior, silver hardware, and tonal stitching. I had inquired about a similar style bag almost two years ago, and she advised me to wait as she was working on a new design and I have to say, it was very much worth the wait.
The curves of this bag are so gorgeous and very much in sync with many of her other designs. As all of Lili's bags, its just exquisitely constructed. I love her new branding detail in the hardware. I also love her final strap design, very innovative and more beautiful than just a long strap that loops along the bag. The strap comes in 3 parts, is easy to install, is adjustable in length, and is secure during use. The size and capacity of this bag is really perfect! I can easily fit my card case, envirosax, sunglasses case, care keys, phone and small makeup pouch with plenty of room to spare.
One of my favorite things about Lili's designs is the versatility. She really incorporates gorgeous design with functionality. I love how this bag can be carried by hand with no strap, or at adjustable lengths for shoulder or crossbody. It makes her bags so wearable. I'm just so thrilled with the final result!

I think her bags are so user friendly because she uses them herself. (She’s not disconnected from the end product) 💡
PS: Your bag is stunning
@Orange Crush, the quality of the bag speaks for itself. Wear it well as it is special.
