Congrats! Can’t wait to see it. I’m on the east coast of the US. The longest it’s taken to receive a bag is about 2 weeks. The shortest, about a week.

Oh WOW. THAT is fast! I’m in NY. 2 weeks or even a month is a pleasant surprise. Lol. I thought it would be much longer than that.

That is going to be beautiful! I was thinking of getting that same color but I was concerned about the handles getting dirty. The marine lining will look great with the blush.
The length of time to make and ship the bag depends upon how many orders he is getting. I think the Alexia was a hit and he is getting quite a few orders. Once it ships, it usually takes about a week to receive. Congratulations on a gorgeous bag- what a great first MM choice!

Yes, I had the handles cross my mind but I’ve got some Twillies I plan to wrap on the handle part and i think it will give it a nice pop of color too. I went with the marine lining bc I thought it gave it a bit of that almost “Tiffany blue” feminine compliment to the already feminine pink exterior.

That is going to be gorgeous! Please please post mod shots, lovely ladies who got Alexias big and small, plus also what fits! I am wondering how much real estate these bags have due to the invard handle curves

I most certainly will! I am so excited!!! I know what I want next but idk if it’s possible to create. Id love a Calista hobo in the deep blue Africa leather with a stripe of the flirt red pebbled on the sides and maybe even the handle. Lol!
 
Well, I just did it! My first purchase from MM! I went with the full size Alexia in Blush Pompei leather, marine lining, and light gold hardware. I am so excited! Can anyone shine a light on how long it takes to make and arrive? I’m hoping not longer than 60 days but I can happily wait longer if needed!
I can't wait to see this!!
Orders are usually pretty quick, given that they are made individually. I have waited up to a month to receive a shipment - I live on the west coast of the US.

The Calista is one of my favorite styles. That is an interesting idea. You can always ask Marco. However, the front and back sections of the bag are one piece of leather each, so putting a color on the sides may mean extra seams on the sides of the bag. The handle is a separate piece of leather so that could be a different color.
 
These are SUPER bad pictures....late at night and bad lighting to boot....but I got the midi Muse in eggplant Pompei and the mini Muse in Sky Verona...and the mini really IS mini. I can take pictures of it in comparison to the Little Athena and Daphne etc later, but it is small but oh so cute! The midi is a great size and I love the Pompei leather more than I thought I would!

So I will post better pictures later but wanted to put these out there since other than the blog post, there does not seem to be any on the midi and mini Muse.

And as a funny after story...I had not expected these so quickly, but I ordered right by my birthday and am facebook friends with Marco as I have been buying bags from him for 10 or more years, and I think he rushed my order due to my birthday lol. So I had not warned/prepared my husband about the box. He said nothing until we were going to sleep...and then he said “What was in the box from Mr. Italy?” Which cracked me up!!

Wow! The more I see eggplant, the more I love it. I’m
not a big fan of many shades of purple, but this shade would work for me.

Well now you have gone and done it! There is no stopping... When you open the box, then the cover and that handbag just takes your breath away you will be plotting how to get the next one. But you are not alone, we are here and can share your agony at not having as much money as you need to buy them ALL.

OK ladies here is some more good information from Marco. I has written and asked him to explain why all of his leathers smell so good. I received this in response. He is so nice to take the time to write such a long note.

So wonderful! I've been reading this thread for a year and have yet to make a purchase, yet somehow I'm a loyal fan! I really must get my first MM bag soon!!!
