Right now my closet doesn’t have any MM! I have owned a couple styles but have since let them go.

My first purchase was the Soulmate Midi in Deep Blue Africa leather but sold it since I had it made with the center compartment that I just could not tolerate. Then I bought the Minerva Midi in olive pebbled leather and found that bag to be a bit too heavy.

So now, I have placed an order for Calista in Caramel Merino with the exterior pocket and removal of the interior slip pockets--let's hope it is everything I am dreaming it will be!

So what MM is on order for you?

Thanks so much for these! Your power suit/bag/shoes combo is killer and the bag looks perfect on you! It doesn't look boxy or suitcasey at all, a really great feminine briefcase, just like you described! Now if I only had a professional occupation that would justify getting one like that.. :D :D :D

Lately I've been thinking a lot about Theia (not for ordering soon though). But I can't decide between midi and regular size. I think you have both? I'm not sure you have a midi Minerva, if so, could you compare the size of the regular Theia vs. the midi Minerva? How do the size feel when carried? I have the midi Minerva so a comparison would be very helpful. Thanks!

I agree. It’s bright. I think a crossbody bag would be nice. Um... from what in his stock, I’m thinking Theia. But I’m not impressed with this in the midi size. I’m thinking about full size now and this isn’t the color I would want in a full size bag and I don’t want another midi. [emoji848][emoji848][emoji848]

Maybe he’ll come out with something suitable later. [emoji848][emoji848][emoji848]

Hi Vink, I'm researching the Thea. What don't you like about the midi size? And could you also compare with the midi Minerva (you had (have?) one, right?). Thanks!!

Can any Pompei owners share their thoughts on how Pompei leather would do on a slouchy style such as the Selene or Soulmate? Is it like merinos and would get slouchy and soft or would stay structured like vachetta? TIA!!

It is a structured leather. I have bags in both and would say that Pompei is even a little more structured than vachetta. Merinos is on the opposite end of the slouch scale IMO.

I don't think Pompei will slouch for these styles. I don't have vachetta so I can't really say, but my guess is Pompei will behave similarly as vachetta. I don't know how to describe it, but Pompei has some 'crispness' to it so I don't think it will bend/slouch.
