HELP I bought a Mid Afternoon unseen: any thoughts or pics please!!!

[fromparis]

Hi Ladies,

I've just bought a Mid Afternoon in Blue India !!!
But it's my first unseen purchase !!!
I've already seen The Blue India in real : I love this colour and I think it would be perfect for me in Summer !!! (but weird on me on winter ).

But I've never seen a Mid A in real so far ...just the atelierNaff pic.

Could you please tell me more about this style ?
On pics, it looks a little bit like a Purse...
Which are the differences with the Purse ??
Is it roomy ? Does it fit on your shoulder ???
Which are pro/inconvenients of the Mid A ?
Would you have any pics to share ???

Thanks for your help Ladies , the baby shouldn't arrive before 2 weeks , so I really need your support !!!

I don't own one but I have seen one at Barney's - I think it is taller than the Purse - the Purse is wider - and it has a divider in the middle and the Purse doesn't - the one I saw was in Truffle and I really liked it, kind of rugged looking where the Purse is more matronly I think - JMO

I like the hourglass shape. Well, not hourglass exactly, but it has a feminine curve.

from paris... it sounds like it will be spectacular! I've only seen photos of the Mid Afternoon, love the shape & Blue India is sooo pretty... doesn't seem like it could be anything but beautiful.

yes, feminine but not not matronly, still has more of an edge to to it I think

Thank you ladies for your nice answers !!!

Sea and of course Luvpurse : thank you for the pic!!
Pinkie and Zac : I can't wait to have it !!!Of course I'll post pics !!!

Ronda and Queenvictoria :
The 2 compartments sounds great !!!
And if it looks feminine but not matronly, it's also a good thing !!!
Do you think the Mid A can fit on the shoulder like the Purse ???

 

[seahorseinstripes]

yes, i've tried it on, and it can fit my shoulder

I saw a mid afternoon on someone today at balny and it was a very cute size!!!! Very nice shape. She had a red color but I don't know the yrs enough to say which color. REALLY gorgeous!!!!!

 

[fromparis]

Thanks Ronda for the link : I love the inside of the bag, great for Work !!!!
QueenVictoria : I agree I think it's a greige specimen
Divina : It must be a Rouge Vif since Mid A is available since FW 06...And it must be gorgeous !!!!!!
Can't wait to have my BI ...to see what it look like

 

[Rondafaye]

Yes, on second look it is greige. I thought it was seafoam. I have old eyes, you know!
