Ladies! While I don't have good pictures yet, I just have to share one snap with you of my new greatest possession from Marco - Venus in Blue Iris Verona. As many of you know, I've been coveting Venus ever since it came out back in the Fall and I finally caved during one of the sales. I got her in Verona, as I wanted a sturdier leather but still not crazy thick and Marco reassured me it should look good. Boy was he right - this photo doesn't do this bag justice. It is not the style that became popular, but I hope Marco will keep her around. It is such a gorgeous take on a N/S tote, there isn't anything quite like it out there.
In the same haul I also got a copper diamond Penelope (red lining) with a longer strap and a colorblocked Phoebe in teal diamond with pewter sides and longer strap (marine lining) - both dark GM. Both are super cute and feather light! Ill post pics when I get any daylight.

Beautiful. Agree the Venus is an under rated style. I really enjoyed mine

Gorgeous. Love the color the leather and the style.

Honestly, this bag is such a pleasant surprise. I wasn’t sure about color blocking but this is subtle enough and size is not too big but big enough for my junk. I like how you can use space between shell and inner bag as pockets

Hope you could do a modshot when you have the chance. Thanks!!

Btw, I am confused now. Just to clarify, there are both Eggplant and Amethyst Pompei? Anyone who has swatch/leather comparison?

Beautiful! Are there 3 compartments inside?

This bag is a dream for someone who loves pockets and organization lol. There are 3 compartments, but spaces between them are sewn at the bottom, so those are like mini pockets of all leather, PLUS there are Marco's traditional zippered pocket and 2 open ones inside lol. So while I think having a zippered outside pocket like Clu had on hers is a gorgeous add on, I figured I will never find anything ever in this bag, because I am NOT an organized person.
In bag terms, I'd say Venus is to Soulmate is like Kelly is to Birkin . One is very classy and polished, the other more carefree and casual, both amazing.

Gorgeous bag, TotinScience! You've captured Blue Iris Verona really nicely in your picture too, I had a tough time getting a decent pic of my Penelope in the same leather that represented the colour well! I hope you're loving that leather as well as the style (I'm drooling thinking of the inner "mini" leather pockets in that luscious Verona leather! )

When I got my Blue Iris Penelope together with my Dark Amethyst Zhoe Legend, I think I mentioned here that Dark Amethyst was the knockout Verona leather in comparison to Blue Iris -- I should update, though, that Blue Iris has since really grown on me too! The leather has softened up really nicely from when I first got it, and it's now just as soft and pliable as my other Verona pieces. Definitely a colour and leather I would recommend!

Thanks, @starkfan! I am grateful for your reference shots of Iris vs Amethyst. While Amethyst took my breath away as well, I already have 2 bags in that color family (more berry/wine kind of purple), whereas Iris is a very unique leather! I was actually amazed by how perfectly the purple undertone came up in my picture, it looks a little more muted in person as you know.
Also, while I am a die hard silver-tone metallics kind of gal, Marco's light gold is really growing on me. It is such a beautiful hue!

The gold hw on that bag is perfect, This is one of the prettiest bags I have seen lately. I like the simplicity of the design on the outside and the complexity of the inside. And the blue iris verona.... priceless!!! Good job Totinscience.​

@bonniekir Here it is I will post it again.
Let me know if you can see it.

Thanks, yes now it is there [emoji1]

Seeing this is dangerous. I love Verona and I love blue. Don’t you make me go searching for style just to put this leather in use. I love my Selene midis but I also need a break from them. I wish Marco design some bags of a similar vibe like it again. Simple, slouchy, with moderate amount of hardware, and just easy to grab and go.

Wow. It's gorgeous!

Should I be worried that my order that, according to Marco , should ship a week and half ago still had no tracking? I emailed on Monday and he said it would go out the next AM, but still no tracking. Do you think something happened to my order or is Marco just too busy with all the orders he's getting?

Maybe it’s still at his workshop? My tassels got misunderstood, too and are supposed to come with my diamond shipment, but stuck at the workshop due to misunderstanding on hardware. They’ll be here with the next shipment. I’m so excited about this new comers. The Valerie released got me very excited and now I’m waiting for my order. I think it’s been a long time since I feel this way with the new design. Normally, it’s all slowly growing.
