I would have gotten 2 at that price LOL. I must say the mini opening, for its size, is great. I can see everything And I don’t have to play Tetris. It’s crazy to me that the small flo satchels and satchel 38 openings are tiny compared to their sizes. I hope that makes sense. Since the mini is not for iPad use, there’s no maneuvering anything. the mini is a really awesome daily carry….

The mini holds my small zip around wallet(deluxe mo) in ivy, coach skinny case, change purse, cheaters, tissue, small wristlet pouch, ear pods, card case, small flo coin case, hand sanitizer, lotion, pencil case, pill case and pocket cannon, and my iPhone 12 Pro Max and I STILL have room for more.

that micro opening was tiny. It’s more north south than the mini. I really wanted the micro when I first went to the store and I could kick myself for not looking at the mini then…

I looove the Savannah line! Even blah elephant looks good in that design. The white really gives them an 'edge' (boo I couldn't resist!) over the traditional flos.
Congratulations on your gorgeous new bag collection and your fast coming retirement. What wonderful things you have going on here at Christmas! Blessed indeed! 🥰

I had the Flo edged satchel a few years ago, not the micro.
It didn't hold up well. Don't know if they changed the materials/construction.
But I found the white edging stuck to the leather of the bag when the handles
fell down during storage. Result.... a mess.

The white edging on those bags was the reason I didn't buy the small in Ivy. If that starts to come off/crack, it's going to be very noticeable. Still an adorable bag though.

I love the shape of the domed satchel. When I saw this video and that bordeaux smaller satchel it immediately went on my wish list. The size the shape the color hit EACH AND EVERY box for me.
skip to 19 min for the Bordeaux satchel. Everything she got was great. I love to see what people get in their hauls.

i like her videos!
UGH, I want that camera bag.

The medium wallet is gorgeous.
Navy / red & ecru / red contrasts go so well together. i wish they did the black with the red contrast more.

Ok she did a video of the hobo darling in black silk Nappa leather…. My jaw dropped. This will be my first hobo purchase. It was love at first sight! although I don’t want a black bag right now; I’ll be getting THIS black bag…

I ended up repurchased the Micro satchel in red. This new one is a huge improvement from the last one I bought. I think I may be done with the satchels for now. The only ones I really have my eye on is a nano in Elephant and maybe a mini or micro one in plum, if they ever bring that color back. I also picked up the Medium Toggle Crossbody in Natural. I wanted another florentine bag in Natural, that could be a grab and go bag or something to take with me if I travel. I was originally going to buy the Dipinta, but I wasn't sure if I would love it long term, plus it's priced as much as a mini florentine satchel. There's some slight pebbling on the right side of the flap, but overall the bag is beautiful. I thought the strap would be too long - I'm 5'3", but putting each strap to the shortest, hits me just right.

Enjoy your lovely new Florentine handbags.
Have you seen Florentine leather in elephant in person? It's
different than the pebbled leather elephant. The Florentine
elephant has much more brown in the taupe. Some people
love it, but it's an acquired taste so be sure you can return it if you
order online.

Hey! She did a review of the “large” Flo card case and Torino bag.

I think these card cases are good to have for small bags, like a night out. Or just for extra card storage. I’m gonna grab 1 to add to my mom’s gift.

Exactly! re: the small card cases. That's precisely how I use them. If you want to change to a small bag or cb, say it's raining & you're in a hurry, just grab your DL & whatever cards you have to have & shove them in the case, maybe with a couple of $ & the case into the little bag & you're good to go.
