Me too. I absolutely love it in pics and on others but I am not sure if it suits me as a crossbody.

So pretty! I really like the look of Roots' bags.Omg, I broke down and bought another black bag. I blame this entirely on @houseof999 because she mentioned the black woven Grace was on sale on the Roots website (thank you, house! I love my new bag).By the time I checked it out, the woven Grace was sold out
but another bag I have had my eye on was still on sale and available.
Here's small Gracie in box leather with raspberry lining! Oh, she is such a cutie!

Gracie is a smaller version of mine and @HesitantShopper 's black Grace which are Prince leather. I love the quilted leather, rolled handles, adjustable shoulder strap and brass hardware in a style I already know works for me. While she seems similar to my Sophie and Nolita Prairie Bud, I prefer the soft, wide shoulder strap which is easily adjustable to go from decorative to a functional shoulder or Crossbody strap. Sophia's shoulder strap is too short, and I find the Nolita is not a good shoulder bag as she's too wide at the base and sticks out on me.
Because the Gracie is soft and pliable, I think I have finally found a good travel handbag as I could pack it if needed, it fits in my Longchamp totes and it can easily go from day (shoulder) to night (handheld). She's "Made in Canada" so I know she's tough and can go the distance.
They're texured leather. Crocodile embossed leather.
Lol! Nope! Right now, I’m really enjoying my Chloé bucket bag. It’s small but it fits everything I need with extra wiggle room without being a black hole.
For that price it stopped calling to me. [emoji14]
Oh gotcha. Don’t know anything about the brand.
You got to get one soon.
Sooooooon! I was dead set on the 226 size black with RHW but I saw the prettiest metallic blue one at the mall and now I’m torn about color. I know I want a dark color (navy, gray, purple, burgundy) but it doesn’t have to be black anymore. Lol.
It might just be one of those bags that I have to admire from afar. Though I was thinking of getting on for my mom since she’s been having shoulder and back pain.
Someone posted a one of the Dalmations and a Thumper fob in the reveal thread. Sooo cute!!
Haha! That’s a good point too. The price now is insane. I thought about it in Honolulu (they were in the $800’s with the tax). I don’t think I have it in me to pay full price for one.
I don’t know why I could not find the Market tote. But I love the Heritage leather. I like the camera bag but I’ve had bad luck with this style.
I like the Downtown Tote. I don’t believe the weave makes it heavier. My favourite tote in this style is the French Tote in tribe leather. It’s beautiful but quite deep.
Thanks, e! The combined beauty and toughness of the leather is really appealing to me. The tribe leather (soft and velvet-y) is very lovely.
This is a very nice tote! I love the maple leaf in the corner. Unfortunately, it's not on sale. [emoji28]
Here's the market tote. It is listed as 15 ×15 which makes it a square. It is definitely north/south and not square. So I wonder which measurement is incorrect...
