Please meet my first Alma, first Kirigami and my new bandeau :smile:. I can’t believe I found this bag after looking for about 6 months (stalking the EU site the last couple of weeks for US availability). Apparently they still make this bag (with the new microchip date code!). I credit/blame Sweet SunshineMama for my Kirigami purchase. Off to ban island now.

Many congrats IM! All are so beautiful :heart:
And your new Alma is stunning!
I will join you on ban island soon, after getting my black MPA :)
 
My empreinte NeoNoe MM finally came yesterday. I’ve been waiting for a while. I’m not 100% in love which is a bit shocking to me because I love my canvas NeoNoe MM. Going to give it a couple days to see if I’m going to keep her. View attachment 5113685
I had purchased this version also expecting to be completely in love with it but for some reason just didn’t fall in love with it instead I felt disappointed? I ended up exchanging it for the canvas/rose ballerine and love it!

I’m glad I’m not the only one. I loved this piece in photos on Instagram and here but in person I’m a bit underwhelmed. I surprisingly love my empreinte Neverfull (I’m usually not a Neverfull person). Maybe I got these two close together to really appreciate the NeoNoe.

Purchased Neverfull Azur GM as a large tote/weekender but having 2nd thoughts. Limited stock meant no opportunity to try on in store so my lovely SA snatched it up and shipped it to me upon arrival. I’m small, and this is a big bag, plus concerned about the maintenance. Pic shows it synched but will probably be open when I need to pack it. Keep or return? (Ignore the yoga clothes…)View attachment 5112331
I think it looks good on you. It helps that it’s in Azur print instead of a darker color which might look too “heavy” on a small body frame. I’m short and I tired on a mono GM in the store, it basically swallowed me lol.

I had the same feeling when I initially got my Empreinte Noir NeoNoe. It was lovely ,but also “meh“. I expected a more of a “wow“ effect. I let it sit for a bit and the more I looked at it the more I liked it. For me it’s more toned down then monogram but still has elements of monogram and, therefore, a bit more out there than Epi. Though I am not a bandeau person, on Tue. I added a bandeau for those days when a bit more pizzazz is needed (it was revealed a few pages back on this thread).
Having said that, it was not my first attempt at adding this bag to my collection so I would absolutely agree with you that timing is important (especially if you just recently added another Empreinte piece). I am thrilled I didn’t return the bag and gave myself some time to “sleep on it“ as it turned out to be a great addition to my collection. I guess sometimes love doesn’t necessarily happen at first sight. ;)

Just thought I'd share: while I was getting the Keepall XS from the store, I asked the SA about TP26, and she brought it out AND was MiF!!
Like others have said, FOMO made me ask the SA. I was actually waiting for a MIF TP26 for years, and I can't believe I got one. :girlsigh:
Wow double congrats SM! Such a lucky find :)

Thanks so much EveyB :). Looking forward to seeing your black MPA (such a pretty piece — that was one of the black bags I was tempted by). Next stop is definitely ban island :lol:.
