Current Good Quality Fair Price but Little Known Recommendation Thread

[Fancyfree]

Doing an unboxing of my new Daniella Ortiz that I had sent to me from Palm Beach. I was doing a Worth Ave Historic Tour last Wednesday and stopped in her boutique after the tour and fell in love with the Gigi in Hunter Green. The sales associate (Shannon) said I wouldn't get charged sales tax if they ship from the store and I got to use a 15% off promo code.The dust bag is substantial like a fleece blanket!! It's very roomy for a small bag!! This will be a small memento from my trip!

Love the way you support the handles with your shoulder strap
Can you share a photo of how the handles and bag drapes when carried on shoulder strap without threading the shoulder strap through the handles, please?

Hi, sure, see attached!! Having the strap crossed through the handles ensures it stays closed, so if you are out and about walking around a busy area, I'd wear it as above. Otherwise, you'll have easier access wearing it the normal way.

Revisiting the SAK bags. Nostalgia factor
I ordered two non leather bags and were very happy with the quality, price and service all together.

Just got this cute Deadly Ponies bag while in New Zealand. The leather is buttery soft and it's the perfect size little cross body. And love the super neutral color too. It was $350NZD.

A-Esque, anyone? This is the Big Day in grain blue which I got on the archive edit sale. It was the last blue. This bag is substantial with a tan suede lining! All the way from Australia!! Dust bag photo first. Lots of pictures!

Beautiful blue

Some mod shots.... this bag is huge but so soft it conforms to the body. The straps criss cross which helps keep it closed.

How's life with the bag?

For those interested in Métier, I went to their store in Mayfair, London last week. The SA took time and trouble to show me all the bags I'd been interested in very enthusiastically, and I must say it was nice to see such great quality across the board. They didn't have any Private Eye Slims or Perriland Minis.

Métier:
Private Eye Med or Slim / Perriland City Small/ Perriland Mini
Love:
- practical and organised
- modularity
- every day appropriate
- sensible / "organic" colours
- leather / suede linings
- well made
- designer owner
- elegant and classic looking

Questioning:
- small brand as expensive as major brands
- lack personality?
- don't I already have hundreds of similar bags?
- sold out of colours (Cherry Red Med PE)
- logo on outside of bag (Perriland City)
- have to buy extras/modular components quickly or risk losing out (modular components)
