I use the 27.
Thank you! I've ordered a MaiTai Bolide 27.

Any advice on a bag pillow, I've seen a few for Bolide 27 but not sure if they will fit 😅

No recommendations for a pillow. I don't use one as the bag is so small and I find it to hold its shape on its own.
Hmmm when I got my bolide bag the shape wasn't perfect. See below.

I did take photos and send to my SA. She said since the leather was softer some times it would do that since handles are heavier.

Hence why I was thinking about a pillow!

Does anyone have any experience with the 7rp inserts for a Mini Evelyne (TPM) and a Picotin 22?
I bought both. No complaints, both fit beautifully. Full disclosure- I’m a big 7RP fan. MaiTai, Samorga, etc., never work for me and I rather pay the 7RP premium vs. putting another cheaper insert into my graveyard of inserts that I never use.

I have sold a few H bags that didn’t work for me and have always been able sell the 7RP inserts on eBay as they always look pristine even after use.

It’s a bit challenging - I got a cheap Etsy bag organiser just because I didn’t like having uneven bulges when I chose to fill the Mini Evelyne directly, but the annoying thing with inserts is that it tends to leave an indentation mark at the top where the organiser ends. So to mitigate that, I tend to leave the snap closure unbuttoned. I mean, the closure is about as useful as a chocolate teapot in any case, so there you go…

I didn’t really want to spend too much on a new insert, and although my go to would have been MaiTai or WhiteFox, I think the design of the Mini Evelyne means that indentations are probably unavoidable?

Update: I bit the bullet and got a Evelyne TPM insert from WhiteFox as I was impressed with what a great job she did on the Mini Lindy insert.

I went with one with a zipper but no internal pockets, given how narrow the bag already was, and because I wanted some security for my commuting.

I chose Rose Cloud as I fell in love with the shade and decided I wanted a different colour insert to the Gold leather to create some contrast, and I think it worked perfectly.

Since I had continued using the Etsy insert while waiting, there is still some indentation on the bag - I’m not sure if that will ever go away, but I’m hoping that the thinner linen insert will go some way to ameliorating this. Only time will tell I guess!

Given that I chose an insert with a zipper, I decided that I would leave most of the items in the organiser loose, rather than bulking them up with superfluous pouches to categorise items.

I’ve also included some comparisons with the old insert. The linen is definitely of better construction compared to the thick felt.

Fabulous new organizer @Prada Prince! Like you, I’m an insert nerd, and they must be JUST right. I think your new one is lovely - great shape, zipper for safety and it looks lovely through the holes in your little Evelyn. A chocolate teapot.😆😆😆. I’m glad you changed it up. I use a very thin felt insert from Zoomoni with no pockets, and though it might leave a small indent, it’s not enough to really notice. It looks like you found such a winner from White Fox! Thanks for sharing in such detail ❤️
