I broke and ordered the red/oxblood kisslock satchel (Style no. 21733 OL/Oxblood) while it was still available because of how limited it is (just to check it out :angel:). It appears there were 301 made. You've probably seen it on other threads, but I thought I'd share a bunch of photos and details of the bag in case any of you are interested.

Here are some of my pros and cons on this bag and some honest thoughts about it; I am still a little undecided.

Pros: It's very beautiful and well crafted. The kisslock closure is large and works smoothly. The inside lining is made of a nice soft leather. The colors and prints complement one another nicely; the horse and duck prints are my favorite of the season (such a win to have them both on one bag). It fits more than it looks like it should fit, so in that regard it does fit a lot. It's also light, although that is probably unsurprising given its size. Also...it sparkles. I tried to capture this in photos but the horse print has glitter and all the edges, including on the strap and hangtag, have the glitter finishing. In bright light the whole bag just has that lovely sparkle.

Cons: The size is really tiny - I knew it would be tiny, I checked the measurements and saw the photos but I was still surprised at how tiny it is. I'm just second-guessing the size + shape combination, it's unusual for me personally so I have to step out of my comfort zone with this one. In the same vein, be hard to coordinate this satchel with certain clothing and shoes; I would say it's a statement bag. I really do wish it came with a chain-leather strap rather than just the leather strap. I added a metal/leather strap from a different bag but it's not a perfect. If they included an oxblood colored leather + old gold metal strap it would so perfect (here's me saying for the 101st time that they should just sell these types of straps separately!)

And now without further ado....

It's beautiful- I definitely think you should keep it! It is small and maybe difficult to match with lots, but it looks FABULOUS with your all black outfit and makes a big statement. I could see it being useful and wonderful to wear for evenings out or just running around errands with mono color outfits.
 
I'm glad you were able to secure one! I think the size of it looks perfect on you, both hand-carried and worn with the strap. I also agree that it looks like a perfect focal point next to your black outfit!

The outfit coordination issue is part of the reason why I decided to go with a solid one instead, but I am just in love with the colour combination and design of that horse print!

I think you should keep it; it looks good on you! I have the floral one and I love it, it's small but I can really pack items in it. I bought the floral clutch which I use as the wallet for both my Rogue and this kisslock. Yes-the clutch actually looks almost as big as the kisslock but it fits perfectly in there with lots of room to spare. When I need to carry my iPad and other business items, I use my melon Rogue. When I'm just running an errand or do not need to haul around my "big" Rogue, I grab the clutch from my Rogue and put it in the kisslock (along with other small essentials) and off I go. It is a great small bag!
 
Great bag & wonderful overview/pics. Thanks for taking the time. It's a great bag. Let us know what you decide :graucho:

It is such a cute bag. I've been toying with getting a dinky, but I think that's even smaller. Not sure if it would be practical.

I returned it because it looked ridiculous on me, but it looks great on you - you should keep it.

Very sweet of you guys, thank you :) . I think I would end up regretting it if I returned it because it's so unique and special. It will probably just take me some time to get used to carrying it but I think it's good to try new styles. My wardrobe (and esp bag collection) has never been as colorful as it is now...it has everything to do with these 1941 collections :lol:

Preaching to the choir with me- I love the bag- these are my favorite prints of the season and to have both together is a dream! It looks absolutely fabulous on you- you coordinated it so well with your attire. I vote for you to keep it but only you can decide- at least you have it and can make the decision with it in your hands rather than wonder whether it was right or not- it will sell out if it hasn't already. Bon chance deciding!
