WOW, lucky you. Both gorgeous bags. When I got my recent Hug Me black crash realised how gorgeous that leather is all over again ( my first full price BE bag years ago was a black crash Hug Me which I then sold,). I love that BEs blacks are so distinct, you could have the same bag in black snake print, Crash, pebbled etc depending what look you wanted ( alongside hardware colours) and wouldn't feel yiu had a load of duplicates in your collection. I particularly love the LMM, it's a great size. I'd love to do mini bags but my last one ( Hermes Plume mini) never saw the light of day because I always cart too much stuff around with me,



Wear them in good health xx

Thank you so much. Would you believe I had a brand new black crash WTM midi, decided it was too shiny and gave it to my oldest sister who couldn't tell a Hermes from a carrier bag. She slings it everywhere and it makes me chuckle to see it still in fab condition. I now appreciate that not every bag has to be matte nappa to be gorgeous. Imagine a Hermes (never owned one) sitting unused in a cupboard lol.

I used to use the bigger bags, always had so little in them but they still looked nice. Then I bought a fendi btw in small and I've loved little bags ever since. I just need to get my dog his own backpack for his poop bags and his treats now [emoji12]

Here's the old matte tan Stroke Me and the midnight glossy Be Mine Mini that I snagged. Two very different bags but bother are lovely.



The Stroke Me full size is in BE's original matte tan, thick and smooshy. The minimal hardware make this a lovely light bag.



The Be Mine Mini is much smaller, very cute with some lovely details. The leather is a lovely true navy, almost black in some light. A great date night bag or for days when I want to look more grown up as I tend to be quite casual hence my love of hobos or messenger bags.

I missed this one. Two lovely bags, I especially like your Be Mine Mini. I've never seen one IRL but it looks great, such a rich dark blue. Hope you're enjoying them [emoji3]

I'm wearing the old matte tan Stroke Me now. I had listed it but then when I looked at it, I realised that I really liked it and didn't want to sell it so I took it down. I must admit that I have not worn the Be Mine Mini a lot as it is a hand carry bag and I tend to be more shoulder/messenger. It was one of those styles that I looked at for ages and wanted for ages but once I got it, I realised it probably wasn't ideal for my daily style. It is nice for if I ever need a really ladylike bag...but I don't often need those!

I too seem to suit really casual bags, I often feel a bit uncomfortable carrying something extremely ladylike, like it's just not me. But there are occasions you may need one and it's good to have it and know that it's a special little bag.

Now I see it again I really regret selling my Be mine mini in dark blue, the colour was fab and I seem to remember with the 39% off BEC at the time it was a good price... The colour isn't like a flat navy blue IRL, there's a depth to it because of the glossy leather.. If yiu see another bag in this leather on Bonanza etc def snap it up!

Ha! I remember us debating blue or mustard glossy for this style at one point when that sale was on. It is a lovely blue which is why I will keep it. I had a Love Me Mini in it (sold that) and have an Enchant Me in it which is just gorgeous, definitely keeping that.

Big Cherry, you are right. It is always good to have one bag that is a bit smarter. I have taken the Be Mine Mini to an interview rather than hauling a more casual bag like one of my hobos.

Ooh that EM in blue glossy I've seen a pic of somewhere is yours then, I LOVE that bag, such a gorgeous colour and suits the style really well. Keep hoping another EM will turn up on eBay / bonanza at some point... (Fingers crossed,) x
