I think that does not work. MM will customize but is also very particular about his creations. If he thinks a style will work in a smaller size he will make a midi or little model.. and yes I wish some were just a little bigger smaller, shorter taller... [emoji4][emoji4]. And the amount of customization we can do with handles, zippers, pockets, leathers and lining is pretty awesome at this price point.
I just liked this, but decided to add more. What we get for the price is almost hard to believe. To be able to "talk" directly with the designer, ask his opinion on leathers for each style or simply describe our style and have him make suggestions....priceless. And to have him listen to us and make midi sized bags. Where else can you get this. I am a "brand ambassador" for MM and proud to be.
 
Yep, Merinos does slouch beautifully. I have only carried this Selene maybe 10 times.

ON Facebook we have a Buy, Sell or Trade group that you can join. I have picked up a couple of nice bags by trading and buying.

Yes one of my favorites daphne that I got on BST Facebook page. She’s ready for an overnight flight tonight and is a perfect, hardy traveler. IMG_5840.jpgIMG_1521068647.406693.jpg
 
I have three full size Theias (Athene, Verona, Merinos) but this will be my first Theia midi. I've got a Minerva Midi so can compare regular Theia with midi Minerva for you. I love the full size Theia - I don't find it heavy at all and love to wear it crossbody or on the shoulder.
Oh yes, I would like to hear/see comparison of the regular Theia with the midi Minerva!! Thanks! And I hope you could squeeze in some modshots of the Theia carried on the shoulder. :flowers: Thanks!! Btw, I'm most interested in the Merinos and Verona for Theia.

I also like the style of the Daphne! I rehomed mine in pebbled leather (because I want a more saturated color), but someday I plan to get one in a more structured leather, possibly Pompei.

I also picked up a Daphne on BST, not because of the style, but of the vacchetta leather which I had been wanting to see. To my surprise, I really like the Daphne. It is not a big bag but holds a lot. And the leather.... be still my heart. I always wondered why so many people made so much over vachetta or vacchetta as it is spelled in Italy, now I know. Maybe when my new glitter Pompei comes, I will have a new love.
 
Thank you for the welcome. I've been reading but still not clear on the pros and cons of the leathers. It also seems that not all colors come in all leathers. My perfect bag doesn't puddle but isn't stiff either. I prefer it to weigh no more than 2.5lbs so it's not to heavy when I put in what I need to carry all day. Prefer shoulder or crossbody to hand carry. Best size is usually 12-14 "W x 9" H x 5-6" D. Should I just email that to Marco?
I’m excited to know what Maro would suggest to you. Seems like my ideal parameters for a bag.
 
Maybe this reply is late, but between the 2 I would probably go for Little Athena. I like both aesthetics. They are different. But it is Little Athena in terms of what I can put in (btw, I don't have any of these 2 models). I have the regular Muse and even if it is big, it's not that spacious if you use a bag insert at the center. I am not able to utilize the side areas. But I know this is just because I prefer to use it this way. In any case, I still think the space on the little Muse will be that - little.

I just wanted to say that the nappa in Cherry Red is such a beautiful saturated red. Maybe for your next order? :idea: Can't wait to see your Grande Aura!
Yes! Cherry Napa is my favorite red! My sister helped herself to my Red Cherry Napa Zhoe. Oh Well, I should have known better then to show her. I can’t say no to my baby sister..

How it would look if you had to put it down next to you -but we would NEVER do that ;)

I’m distracted by your gorgeous hair! Anyway the bag is a beautiful and a wonderful feminine alternative to the boring and boring and very boring briefcase.
