I caved for the new promo. Penny Messenger in Tobacco Aquila Matte, free cuff in the mauve and then I bought two other cuffs in Teal Diamond and Sugar Cane Pompeii.

Di, absolutely love your two new bags!!
Thanks Vannie I love them as well. The Little Muse is the perfect date bag small and cute and fun. The Little Tulipano is amazing I was worried that I did not go with edge paint but I am pleased I did not. It makes it a little edgy and updated and fun. I did add a slip pocket and I am pleased I did that. We are off to a neighborhood party this evening and I have selected my dress to make sure that I can use the Amethyst Little Tulipano. Super excited.

I think the Penny Messenger in tobacco Aquila Matte will be amazing such a gorgeous leather. The cuffs sounds great I love the Teal Diamond and the Sugar Cane Pompeii is stunning. I know because in my box were some leather samples and that was one of them. It is such a great color.

I just received my Everose Pompei glitter little Muse and the Amethyst Little Tulipano. I took two quick photos because I am heading out so no time to take a lot of different photos. The amethyst pompei is absolutely stunning the color is very vibrant. View attachment 4078168 View attachment 4078169 I love both of them.

Wow, that Amethyst Pompei leather really is a stunner! :loveeyes: I'm glad to also hear your thoughts on the raw edges, it's interesting to hear the different views on this vs. the finished edges in the Tulipano styles, I'm not entirely sure where I myself land with them yet... Enjoy your lovely bags!

Glad you love your bags, djfmn
I ordered without the edge paint at first, then changed my mind and added it. I used the glitter pompei for my Tulipanos and was afraid the raw edges wouldn't look right. I sure would have liked to save the money though.

I hope yours works out! lenie's Glitter Pompei Tulipano with the finished edges did turn out very nicely too...

On a completely separate note, I was just madly searching the blog and this forum for pics of the earlier batch of Aquila Matte leathers (seems like the post was deleted off the blog again?) -- finally found this link on the MM website, and thought I'd post it here for anyone else who might also be looking for the other colours! http://www.marcomassaccesi.it/articolo.php?id=22

It's been great to follow along with everyone's beautiful reveals. I have held off from further purchases this season in order to be economically wise(ish). I've also been healing from a broken ankle which has really taken all of my attention. Now that I am getting out and about a bit more, I have been able to use more than a wristlet/ask my husband to carry my wallet.

A recent mishap turned good: my aubergine muse had one of the handles detach from the bag. I emailed Marco asking whether I could send it for repair, and he responded to me in well under 24 hours. He apologized profusely and explained that, because of shipping costs and the tax on items coming into Italy, along with the length of time the process would take, a repair would be a long wait and also cost too much money. Instead, he is making a replacement bag for me. Talk about nice customer service! He also let me know that they test their bags with a 10kg weight - good to know! That means a typical work computer and various accessories/personal items are well within the weight capacity of MM bags. I'm confident that it really was an anomaly - the highlight of the story is the level of service Marco provides.

Since my muse is waiting for it's next incarnation, I finally started using my Modena in Amaranto Pebbled with Dark Gunmetal hardware and Marine lining. These photos were taken in the dappled morning light in our living room (that's what that lighter splotch is on the front of the bag); please excuse the linty backdrop.
This is a really comfortable bag to carry and is excellent for carrying a computer, my bag of computer and phone accessories, and a notebook. I use the interior zipped pocket for my wallet and security badge, and the slip pockets for a small lotion and a couple other items. My phone fits easily in one of the front zipped pockets.

Don’t you love the Modena? So under rated

Beautiful bags!!

I am thinking amethyst pompei for the external body and maybe the fuchsia pink merinos for the inside or maybe hot pink nappa. What do you think? (I am not a color block person.)

I have some of the sample leathers and tomorrow in the sunlight I will take a look at the hot pink nappa with the Amethyst. The only thing I can tell you about trying different leathers is you need to speak to Marco first. Some of the leathers require a backing which will add some cost and also weight. I originally wanted the Little Tulipano in plum pebbled and Marco emailed and let me know that the pebbled would require a backing and make the bag heavy. He indicated that the Pompeii and if I remember correctly the calf leathers were ideal for Tulipano. I am not sure what other leathers are suitable. Now that I have sample of the Pompeii leathers I might have done a color combination although I am not a color block person. As I have mentioned before I love all the color block combos that I see posted here but I prefer a single color. Having said that I might add a different inner or outer bag for my Little Tulipano in one of the other Pompeii leathers. Let me know if there are any color combinations you would like me to photograph with the Amethyst Little Tulipano to give you an idea of what the colors look like together.
