I have just decided that I desperately NEED a compact flat bag that I can wear crossbody style for hands free shopping. I'm eyeing the musette salsa with the long strap. Does anybody have this and hate it? I'm thinking of ordering through e-luxury, but I want to make sure I'll love it first. I know I should just go to the boutique and try it on, but it may be a while before I have time to do that. Please tell me all the good and bad points of this bag if you own it. TIA!!!
 
I have it in Damier, and I LOVE it. It is my favorite bag in my collection, and definitely my most-used. It is so carefree and easy to wear, and looks great with pretty much any color clothes. You won't regret buying it!!
 
Oh, and the only "bad" point is probably the flap opening, if you're not used to it. I'm used to the flap opening, since it's actually more convenient/ fast than a zipper opening. That's about all I can think of.
 
I bought this bag last summer, and I use it all the time when I don't want to carry a large bag or a hand-held. It doesn't fit a lot of stuff, but I can get my Zippy Wallet, cell phone and iPod in no problem.
 
i have a mono too but hardy use it. my sis use it alots but i dun. i much prefer the regular muessette. but if you only require a small messenger bag then this is the one to get.
 
I like the large musette...but I dont think anyone hear does too much. Are you thinking of getting in the mono or damier?? The salsa one looks too small IMO.

Well that's another decision to make! I'm leaning towards the mono. Does it really look too small? I think I want it small so it is more lightweight. I just want it for mall shopping, etc. where my hands need to be free and I like that it looks like it would stay close to the hip. I think I've talked myself into trying it on instead of going via e-luxury. Thanks for all the opinions everybody! :smile:
 
I have it in mono...it's a perfect size for me because I never carry too much with me, just a wallet, phone, keys, and lipgloss.

I actually prefer the magnetic closure because I can get in and out of it quickly.
