OK, taking the plunge - Blue Iris Verona Victoria with light gunmetal HW. I'm asking Marco about yellow lining and whether it's a good compliment to the leather. I *think* it will be but don't have an example here to see in person.

I think that combination will be stunning just like the flowers Iris color with a little yellow - perfect.

I did not fully appreciate the color blue iris until TotinScience got her bag. When I saw it on the bag, it blew me away. It is a lovely color! And a yellow lining is perfect.
To clarify- the Selene in the picture is full size
AHA, that does make a difference!!
 
I had the same thoughts on Aquila, but it helped a lot that somewhere said it reminded them of rubber, and someone else said the surface feels somewhat like velvet.

Yes, it was me who said I think it feels like rubber. Sort of like an eraser, one of those pink ones that are about the size of a thumb with writing on one side, you know? It kind of feels like rubber and velvet at the same time, they are silky but also squeaky/catch-y depending on how you stroke it. That is how Aquila matte feels to me.

I think a Victoria in nappa or merinos with colorblocking with caramel, dark brown, and black (or maybe taupe or grey in there if one is not into the warm tan look of the caramel) would be amazing, as the style would easily lend itself to colroblocking.
 
I love my ever rose victoria which is my favorite M bag so far. Lightweight but very spacious. I am thinking of another in purple merinos, lavender merinos, or dark amethyst verona. I have a taupe merinos that I do know I love, but am curious how the verona leather compares.

Do you have a picture of your Victoria? How does the stiffer leather of the glitter pompei work with that style?

I posted a couple pics awhile ago, but here is a pic again. It is actually the diamond, not pompei. The diamond is very lightweight and flexible. The pompei looks a lot stiffer so it probably wouldn't slouch as much like my pic.

I couldn't escape the thought of the yellow - of course! Irises are some of my very favorite flowers.

The color is just so beautiful - even in photos it really reads well. Verona is one of my favorite leathers because of how much depth you see in person. I cannot wait for this bag!
