Hi Everyone!

I ordered a custom Palm Mirus with exterior pocket from Lili and it arrived in December.

I wanted to use it for a bit before posting so I could speak on the wear and quality of the bag. This bag has been my go to since I received it. The craftsmanship and leather are impeccable! šŸ„°

To say Iā€™m obsessed would be an understatement. For anyone on the fence, this is your sign to just reach out and place your order!

I was nervous at first, but Lili is so kind and patient! I canā€™t recommend her enough!

hereā€™s a quick pic from our recent vacation, this was one of 2 bags I brought and I used to more than I thought I would!

While the palm Mirus is on the smaller side, it was perfect for my daily necessities šŸ’š

Iā€™m saving up for my next Mila Jito bag šŸ˜ canā€™t get enough!

So gorgeous!! I LOVE THE PALM
MIRUS. From an aesthetic and functional standpoint, it is TOP NOTCH. Sorry not sorry for ā€œyellingā€ as Iā€™m rarely enthusiastic and am very much so about this bag style.

You are inspiring me to consider ordering an exterior pocket for my Palm Mirus. Can you share how you have been using the exterior pocket?

Iā€™m so glad and excited that you love it just as much! Congrats!

Congrats and thanks for reporting back. The bag is lovely. :loveeyes:

How do you use it most? Crossbody? Shoulder?

Agree.

I want everything. Lol. These designs appeal to me more than Hermes.

Iā€™ve decided against her belt/fanny bag though ā€” as I get older, Iā€™m finding that I donā€™t want to carry anything too heavy.

Good point, I wonder how heavy her bags are? May be something I need to ask before I place an order.

Weight can vary a lot depending on leather choices for the interior / exterior.

If weight is an issue, Iā€™d start from there and ask her for suggestions for the lightest bag possible.

This is one of the benefits of going through a custom artisan after all!

I recently received my new mellower bag from the amazing Lili! Since this style has not yet been shared, I wanted to add a couple of photos and comments on the style for you all. This bag is an east/west length and her new 2 way strap version, which is one continuous strap that can loop single for crossbody or double for shoulder wear. I've been carrying this mag mostly on my shoulder as it just looks and feels right for me this way, but having the flexibility of the longer strap is really fantastic. Lili was very helpful in determining strap length based on measurements I provided and conversations about where I'd like the bag to sit.

This bag is in grey barenia and of course the leather quality is just glorious! Lili's work speaks for itself, just look at the gorgeous curves of the bag and impeccable stitching. Also of note and a testament to her quality, the seam on the strap is almost imperceptible. I have yet to come across a bag from any other brand that is this clean on the seam. Her quality of work and attention to detail is really top notch! Her bags are simply a joy to carry.

Oooohhhh, thanks so much for sharing! I saw brief pics of this but am not on Social Media (except tPF) so couldn't find out more info. It's beautiful!!!! I for one, would very much appreciate the dimensions/what fits inside and of course any modeling pics you'd be willing to share. :flowers:

Thank you! It fits a good amount. I generally carry an envirosax, car keys, small card holder, slim sunglasses in case, phone and lip balm. One feature I love is the leather piece on the sides of the bag extends a bit under the flap so from the side you don't see the open space and this also keeps contents secure in the bag.
