Thank goodness marina was let go!

Hi ladies! Last night got crazy for me so I couldn't post. Here are my goodies. 
There were a couple errors, but I can live with them. The lining for the Selene midi should have been pink. I asked about apple green or pink and Marco recommend pink. I was initially disappointed, but I actually love this combination. It's such a fun color inside.
The other mistake was the Penelope in green ray nappa. It was supposed to be midi per my email. Marina listed it without the midi in the confirmation and I agreed. That was my mistake for not noticing the difference. My only regret is I can't use it as often as I would have the midi because of the size. I'm trying to figure out how I can turn it into a into a crossbody. [emoji4]
Overall, I'm very happy with my purchases. I love the versatility of the Selene midi and the denim is practically a neutral in my book. [emoji106] The other colors are bring more fun in different sizes. [emoji7]

I wanted to share some color comparison shots for anyone who might wonder. 
here up close next to the window.
And the one Iwas so curious about. You might remember me asking about dark violet merinos versus purple merinos. Well, wonder no more. Here they are together. Zhoe is in dark violet next to purple merinos above her. I'm loving the purple merinos a lot! Now I'm thinking of what else I can get in that color... [emoji28]

No, I’m not thinking it. But I wonder why it happen so fast like she didn’t even make it through the trial period and no good bye whatsoever. Actually, changing the rep often also isn’t a good thing since details or communication can be left hanging in the mid air. I think Marina is ok, but her answer sounds curt because the language barrier.
Now, I wonder if Colette will be back or if anyone will take over the coordinator job. I hope that Marco doesn’t have to do it himself.
No, it’s not a mistake. I like your Selene midi. [emoji4] So, it is denim pebble? I think I may need something in it. [emoji28] it’s on my radar since it came out and that photo of it in Calista on the blog is super lovely. Now, I think I may need to put it on my list. [emoji848]
Yes, denim pebbled. I've loved it since I first saw it on with the Calista. It's a yummy leather/color.
Okay I'm the only nasty person.
I just have had unsatisfying experiences with her not replying when promising to reply and then getting lining and hardware colors wrong. And I'm not the only one, so it's typical for her.
NOTHING against her as a person or her English at all actually. If the order shows up exactly as confirmed that it will in her spreadsheets and she doesn't ghost in the middle of an email exchange then that's perfect in my book. I don't need to find her charming or anything. I'm fine with bare bones delivery of information and placing of order.
Yes. I think we’re talking about the same photo. [emoji4] It’d be quite some time though until I can find a match between style and the leather. I think I should be done with Selene for now. [emoji28]

[emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] No, you’re not nasty. [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23] My dealing with her so far has been fine. So, maybe that’s why my opinion toward her is different from yours. Don’t overthink it. [emoji4]
The email said "they are no longer working with her" whatever that means. I received another email from Marco this morning, reiterating his apologies for any trouble with his bags.
He is really sincere in wanting to address these issues and get them corrected. And it behooves us to remember that he is one small leather artist in Italy and I imagine he stays really busy designing and overseeing his employees. But it is worth it with his luscious leather and customization.
@carterazo , your bag haul is beautiful! So sorry I failed you in my promise to upload a comparison pic between the new and old violet merinos - I couldn't get a hold of my Mom's new bag. But now you have your own and it's so lovely
