Just come across this thread. Minette, what have you been up to???!!! What a beautiful bag and it's a lovely, soft colour. Wish we had something like Overstock here...
Anyway, I was really worried about the colour of my bow satchel (cera but definitely an off-white not a cream). Here in the UK summer can be hit or miss (more miss this year) and I thought I'd get about 2-3 days use each year!
That bag has become a mainstay and I'm so glad I bought it.
BUT go with your gut instinct. I'm so sick of making buying mistakes that if I have any qualms now, back it goes.
