Noticed they released this bag in black as well.. do you think this bag will come out in more colors for future seasons?

I am wondering this too. I saw the rice color in the boutique and the bag really caught my eye. Trying it on, I ADORE the look, and I don’t usually like hobos.

My problem is the color options. The brown you bought is beautiful but that shade has never worked for my skin tone. The rice is gorgeous but I have three cream/white bags and don’t really need to buy another. So then there’s the black, but I don’t wear much in the way of black handbags. I have my micro black Luggage and that’s basically all I need.

I really wish they would release this in a beige, or a muted green like the color they have the Ava in right now. Would buy it so fast!
 
It comes in a light beige now! “Safari” color. It looks beautiful

I saw the new safari color in a boutique earlier this week and it was like a tractor beam that just sucked me right in…it’s GORGEOUS! Also, the leather is so luxury feeling. I was there to purchase another bag, but this one has been stuck in my head ever since (VERY likely to be my next purchase).

It’s very similar to their light taupe, but maybe a tad lighter. I purchased the belt bag in light taupe and initially thought it was the same color (just different name), but this one is just a little lighter. Or, maybe it’s the different leather and how it took the dye (??).
 
Would we worry about color transfer with this color? Since it is so close to body…it’s beautiful. Also every time I look at the camel in store, there are scratches and I was told it definitely scratches more?! Are the leathers different?

Hate to say it but yes, we probably would worry about color transfer with this bag/color. I don’t wear mine on the shoulder much, more often by hand or in crook of elbow. But I do think twice about what I wear with it.

Also, the leather is definitely very soft and probably prone to scratching. It is a great bag IMO but - it is a bag for babying. And I know a lot of folks don’t want to have to deal with that.
 
How much/what can you fit in the Romy? Tossing up between this and the Seau Sangle (large size) as my next purchase...
Depends on how slouchy you want it to be, as the more you put in it, the more “stuffed” looking it becomes. You can comfortably fit keys, cell phone, card holder, sunglasses cases OR mini pochette and other small things like air pods or a compact. It’s when you try and put a sunglasses case AND and mini pochette AND a long wallet it’s just too much (I’d err on using smaller items with the Romy).

You can definitely fit more in the Sangle (including bigger items) and if you have your heart set on it, I’d buy it now as they’re discontinuing it.

Thank you @desertchic, I'd be purchasing the Seau Sangle pre-loved. I love the look of the Romy when it is more slouchy and I don't carry heaps so it sounds like it shouldn't be an issue.
