Thanks for the info! I did check with Saks, but the SA wasn't even aware that it came in a mini size. She offered me the medium, but I really want the mini. I'll check with BG and see if they have it. Do you know if maybe Neiman's might have them?
Someone just posted that pink mini is available at their Neiman so yes they apparently ordered it - I thought they would since they are related to BG.

see above...also considering the alma bb in epi....would they be too similar?
Hi, I personally do not find them similar due to the unique shape of the Alma & the fresh look of the BA. I do not have a epi Alma, but a DE.
I'm sorry to say that I'm not a fan of the coco handle due to the stiff handle that knocks into my hip every time I open the flap & the bottom corners that crease easily. I had a small and quickly sold it after the corners started creasing after 1 short use.
Hope the comparison pics help :smile:
I could fit everything in my BA into the Alma, perhaps you'll like to have a look at my reveal thread on the BA?

SO helpful!!! I have been considering the DE print as well. This is great! Where can I find your reveal? Do you prefer one over the other for everyday use?

:) Am most glad

I'm quite short (only 5'1), so the strap that comes with the Alma was too long for me, even crossbody. I got the bandouliere strap in mono/red and loved it for the comfort and shoulder carry length.
The strap of the BA (mine is the small) fits me perfectly as a shoulder & crossbody bag.
The super smooth bottom of the Alma freaks me out alil. If price is not a huge consideration (no offence, but the price difference is really something!), I would go for the BA in a heartbeat.
