Oh great....I have 2 enablers???? :lol::lol: I have seen that bag and considered it in the past but do not know anything about Marco's bags and the value of them. Are the Africa leathers available at all anymore? I love each of those from the swatches that I see!!!

Unfortunately, the Africa leathers are no longer available☹️.
The other blue metallic is the Sugarcane Pompei, but that is a lighter blue. The deep blue Africa is a rich, deep blue metallic.

There is a metallic blue Midi Soulmate for sale on ebay(not my listing). The deep blue Africa is no longer available but it was a gorgeous blue metallic, pebbled leather.

I saw that but forgot about it. Vixnkitten that might be right up your alley. I have a Blue africa selene and it is beautiful!

I can do a search and find the shell pages for MM's "hidden" bags. All but the Angel midi. Can someone who has it give me some rough dimensions, especially the handle drop? I'm forever looking for bags that have pockets on the outside that I can put my phone into so I'm not rooting around every time I need to get it out. Which is embarrassingly often, if I'm being honest. :lol::angel:

Bummer.....are there swatches for the new leathers? They are not on the thread that was referenced. I have sent him an email so we will see what happens!

I think, at one point, there were two of these on eBay and I wrote to the seller to see if the bag was heavy or not. I don't remember the response. How do these bags compare to the BE bags?? Weight was my biggest complaint about the BE bags. From what it looks like, there is not as much hardware on these bags as there was on the BE bags. I would love some input on this issue as it often deters me from buying bags!

Here’s my Stella in pewter metallic. It’s surprisingly roomy for its size; it has a nice depth. The secure zipper closure makes it my favorite clutch. Most clutches have only a clasp.

What fits inside:

Some room left for tissues and a lip gloss:

Thank you very much! I requested to see a comparison photo between pewter and silver diamond leather. He said he’ll take them soon. I hope he gets back to me soon.

Ugh....I have put it off for so long and I probably won't join just to buy bags....BUT, I might find a friend who will let me borrow them for bag buying purposes...hmmm....off to see what I can do about this dilemma (total first world problem...need to join the most popular social media site so that I can buy handbags that I don't need! :wtf:)

That is pretty ironic. I justify my buys by telling my hubby every time he plays 10 rounds of golf. I get to buy a purse.

Funny story. A couple of days ago I happened to mention that I had 19 total purses (some are quite old). Hubby says “Oh, so that's how many you are up to.” I replied, “No, that is how many I am DOWN to.”

I'm thinking of getting one too, the reference thread has some pictures. And you might want to scroll through this thread because there are discussions about Angel Midi. I think it's a classic like the Selene.

Hmmphhh.....I just looked at my ebay messages and the seller responded (way back in December) that this is a "large and heavy bag".

Oh wait...there are two, a midi and a full-size and it was the full size that I had enquired about. Is the midi a good size bag?? I should measure my Hepburn and see what the dimensions are.

You can use the search function and do “ weight”. I think several posters have commented on this regarding different bags. Also I posted a list of the leathers from lightest weight to heaviest at some point in time.

I looked at a previous post I made on another thread regarding my Angel midi. I said there that the strap drop is 8". If I recalled the previous MM webpage correctly, I think a 2" longer strap drop was an available option for this bag (or was it for the regular Angel). If you ask me, I prefer a longer drop. This bag is just right as it is now. But the longer drop is preferable for me.

Very sad. The edge paint on my Little Muse in River Blue vachetta is cracking and peeling on the handles and sides. I wonder if vachetta is not meant for this small style. This bag has been used several times a week since I got it and I rarely unsnap the sides. IMG_1118.jpgIMG_1119.jpg
