hi everyone 
i'm considering getting the sasha (in who knows what color!), but i'm wondering if anyone can tell me if it's big enough to carry a 13" macbook in a neoprene sleeve... has anyone tried this? does the strap hold up to this kind of weight in the bag?
thanks in advance

^Do they still have Sashas anywhere? I thought they were all sold out. I really wanted one but figured it was hopeless so I got the Natasha instead, but it was just too small for me so I returned it. I would love if I could get a black Sasha though!
^oh, i'm just looking on ebay i saw them in stores back in the fall, but wasn't looking for a messenger-style bag then. having to carry my laptop to work lately in a tote bag is kind of hurting my shoulder, (shoulder issues, sigh) so i'm looking for a crossbody style that will help distribute the weight more evenly. i did measure my laptop case, and saw a non-pttm natasha in a store, and it looks like it will be just too small, so i hope the sasha would be big enough/sturdy enough.

ack! did you wear it just on one shoulder, or crossbody? i'd be wearing it crossbody.
aritizia if theres one around you. i know the ones in vancouver still have about five.
Hi everyone! This is my first post... I've been looking for PTTM Natasha religiously since the beginning of March. Thanks to all the posts, I bought one from ShopBop last Thursday and was very pleased when I got it today. The bag was fully stuffed, the hardware was all wrapped, and all tags were included. I also sent in an email about the price difference, but doubt I'll be able to get my $30 back.
Congrats on your bag!! I am thinking of getting one,too! but I was wondering if the short strap is removable so I can just use the long strap like you had it in your photo? or your bag is a different bag? can you help? thanks!
for anyone looking, just got a pttm zip wallet at nordstrom in cement. My pttm is black, but really I'm just happy to have a snagged the matching wallet in any color. Not sure if it's a nordstrom stock fluke as they were out of stock a day ago. We'll see, just wanted to give anyone looking for it a heads up...
God I've turned into a little addict - this is what happens when you basically dream about designer bags for 7 years of school and then finally get some disposable income. I'm trying to decide between a grape juice PTTM or a cream colored (2nd hand but fantastic condition) chloe paddington.
I feel like I should lean paddington since its easier to dress up, and my huge hillier has me covered for casual bags for a while. Also the Paddington is going for only slightly more than the PTTB, and I have a better chance of coming across the marc jacobs stuff later.
suki777 your bag is GORGEOUS! Is that the newsprint?

They're pretty different bags; if you're interested in something you can dress up then it does seem the Paddington is the obvious choice, however I love the look of the Sasha/Natasha. Just so relaxed and fun.
Plus the grape juice color is so awesome (did the Sasha come in that or just the Natasha?)!They're pretty different bags; if you're interested in something you can dress up then it does seem the Paddington is the obvious choice, however I love the look of the Sasha/Natasha. Just so relaxed and fun.
I love the look of the PTTM for a fun summer bag, but I feel like I won't ever be able to afford a brand new Chloe, whereas I can definitely get a MbMJ in the future. Also right now I am a freelancer and if I need to meet with a client the paddington will make a lot better impression than anything I curerntly have.
Clearly the solution is to have unlimited money!

I think someone posted earlier that if you live near an Aritzia they will order one for you. They should probably be able to transfer between store stock, but I'm not sure.
