What color is the lining? It goes well with the leather.

Thank you! [emoji4] It’s a lovely colour and very easy to wear, at least in my opinion. The grande Aura is also a great bag! It’s quite big, but not too big, yet still lightweight, at least in pompei leather. I can highly recommend it! [emoji4]

I love the bag so much that I’d love to have it in another colour.. It would be gorgeous in new mauve leather! But now it’s time to save some money.. [emoji6]

Does anyone own a Juliet? I've only seen 1 picture. Is it not a popular style? Is it too big or too floppy, etc. Looking forward to your feedback.

I have two Juliet’s in Red Cherry Nappa and river blue vachetta. It’s a great doctor satchel style. It holds a lot but slouches ever so slightly when you have your things in it so it doesn’t look as big as the pictures.
 
I really wish the Juliet had been made with the handles placed the way they would traditionally be placed on a satchel. Every time I consider a Juliet I pause, because of how much I dislike the handles.

I thought the same initially. After using the Juliet, I actually find the handles quite unique. They are comfortable to hold and sets the bag apart from other satchels. The bag slouches just a little under the handles so there is more room to hold and carry the bag than pictured.

I’m a proud owner of a Juliet in cobblestone Tuscania. [emoji4] It’s light and although not as big as it’s shown with the model, it’s not a small bag. I haven’t worn mine yet, but I think it’ll be a good carryon (short plane trip) or briefcase.

I hesitate so much and took the longest time to decide on how should I order my Juliet. I like the style since it came out, but don’t like how boxy it was in the photo on the website and the blog. Then, one day, another TPFer ordered hers in Tuscania, I think, or one of the floppy leather and that did it for me. It’s a bag that morph with the leather it’s made in. Of course, every bag will do that, but the simple line of Juliet and the fact that it doesn’t have any structure besides the 4 walls of the bag showcase that best. So, if you like your bag floppy, like me, pick one of the bendy leather. But if you want it to keep the shape, pick one of the rigid leather. [emoji4]

One thing that struck me the most when I first got it is that it’s not as deep as I thought it would be. It’s quite a slim bag, IMO, consider its width. And definitely not as big as the photo. (I don’t mind the look of Marco’s model, but they must be size 00 and petite. Or I’m just super big. [emoji28]) So, pick your leather carefully since I think that’s the key to make the main character of this bag.
 
It’s here!!!!! [emoji173]️[emoji173]️[emoji173]️[emoji173]️ And Little Muse came with the swatch sheet. I have colorblocking PLANS for that hot pink nappa. And the Lipstick Athene and yellow merinos is gorgy too. View attachment 4014480
I want a bag in that hot pink nappa too! But NOT yet now, maybe by the 2nd half of the year as I'm trying to give my wallet a rest.

Since the color is bright, I don't want a big bag for it. I want the Thea but maybe not in this color since the style is big. I'm thinking another Zhoe Legend, but I'm not really a long shoulder strap wearing kind of girl so it might not be used a lot. Maybe a Penelope crossbody, but then again, I want an everyday bag (size/style). So also no on the midi Muse no matter how cute she is. Haha, what a dilemma!!
