Does anyone have the exterior slip pocket on a theia? I have two midi size and it’s probably my favourite MM style. I wear mine as shoulder bags and added external zip pockets to both as I thought the slip pocket might gape in a soft drapey leather. However I’m always wondering if I could have saved a few euros!
Can you share pictures of your Theia? I’m wanting to add a back pocket too but I am not sure to make it zippered or slip because of gaps. Thanks
 
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.

I also picked up a Daphne on the BST because of the leather which is the Crystal Pink merino which I absolutely love. I also was surprised but I really love the Daphne style a lot as well. I have looked at Vachetta but the weight is an issue for me even though the leather looks gorgeous. I am learning not to purchase anything I will regret. I have made a couple of mistakes in the past but fortunately was able to either gift the purchases or sell them at a great price which I consider very lucky. The midi Minerva did not work for me just too heavy and big I gave one to my daughter and sold the other for the price I paid for it. I had never used it. I also sold my midi Sabrina loved the style and the leather decided to replace it with a cameo rose Angelica from the BST which is far more practical. Other than those 2 bags I have loved all my purchased. I must say I loved the midi Sabrina but I needed a more practical style so the Angelica fit the bill. I am loving the two new styles the midi Muse and the Alexia but with all the MM bags I have I am not rushing to purchase one.

I saw that daphne and it is lovely!!!
We have all made mistakes ordering that is for sure. I have swapped one, sold one bought one on BST and given two to my daughter. Regarding vacchetta... initially I was concerned about the weight but the Daphne is such a small bag, it does not seem heavy. And my vacchetta Zhoe feels light as can be. From my experiences I would only shy away from vacchetta in the larger sized bags. In fact, if no styles come out in the next six months or so that blow me away, my next purchase will be another Zhoe in that dark green vacchetta. I have been looking for a dark green bag for over a year!

I have a dark green Aura in merino and it is such a great bag. In fact I used it this evening when I went out for St Patricks day for dinner. I think a Zhoe in dark green vacchetta would be gorgeous. I love the Zhoe it was the second or third bag I purchased from MM. I bought an orange nappa which I really love. Since then I have bought an Africa blue Zhoe and recently a pink nappa bespoke leather and I have a mini Zhoe in sunflower yellow and two Zhoe Legends one in aqua nappa and one in celeste merino. I love the Zhoe style in all the different sizes. I must because I have 6 of them!!

I swear ( unless I change my mind !) that my next bag is a zhoe legend.

Wow you do like Zhoes. I can see why. It is a very practical and elegant bag. It is just big enough to carry everything I want to carry and it is lightweight and sits close to the body. All in all the Zhoe is a bag that works for a lot of people.
