I wish I were better at taking pictures, so just bear with me. I received my mud Verona Modena. It is everything I hoped it would be. The color is exactly the same as the first batch ( I believe MM said it came from the same lot). I already have one in mud and wanted another. The color is nearly impossible to get using a cell phone.

It is bigger than I pictured it from the dimensions. I seem to be totally unable to accurately figure out what size a bag is until I get it in my hands. This is not a problem for me because I am a "big bag lady." You never know when you will need that extra space, lol. The yellow lining that MM picked is absolute perfection with this color. So here are the pictures, excuse the kitchen backgrounds. PS. The strap length is perfect for shoulder carry, very comfortable. I am gong to carry this one a lot.

Lovely! My Mud Verona delivery is waiting for me as soon as I am back from vacation.
I am a fan of Modena - it’s very comfortable to carry and so lightweight. I’m also a fan of big bags: I’d rather have some room to spare than having to play bag tetris.

My octane Merinos Victoria arrived today! It’s everything that I wanted the Selene to be, but wasn’t. I prefer the straps of the Victoria, and I prefer the more obvious difference in the bottom and top width of this bag. I love it! Thanks to @clu0984 for posting your Victoria a while ago, because it was never on my radar before that.

I also received a blue Glitter Pompei Penelope midi, and this color is amazing! I must get a bag in this color!

Octane Victoria, no flap with cappuccino interior and light gunmetal hardware. Blue Glitter Pompei Penelope midi. I am 5’2”.

This is another style that I’m curious about and you took great photo. I’m a big bag girl, too. [emoji4] Those extra space never hurts. [emoji4]

Vink, it is so easy to carry. It sits close to the body and is very comfortable. I am not a yellow person at all, but this lining is outstanding. It brightens up the inside of the bag so much. I wish I had chosen it for more of my styles!

Ladies, I’m starting to think that MM hardware and I are not meant to be. A few weeks ago, I posted about the screw falling out of my plum penny. I fixed that... and then today this happens to my amethyst Arianna. We were all shocked when this happened. My mother asked why the bag was of so poor quality to suddenly break this way, and I had no words. I hope this does not happen to the Angel that I gifted her as a work bag.

Oh no! Sorry about this. I was just wearing my midi Selene yesterday and today too. And I’m happy that it’s held up very well despite it being a “carefree” bag for me. Hope Marco fixes the issue with you.

I am so sorry this happened to you! I agree - it is surprising.
it is definitely worth getting in touch with him to ask abt a repair.

It may be an unpopular opinion, but I wish Marco found a different hardware manufacturer. While his leathers are the best there is and designs are beautiful, hardware quality both functionally and by feel is not up there with similarly price more mainstream designers. It scratches easily, doesn't work sometimes, and just does not do leathers justice. I am really sorry, @soramillay, about what happened to you - definitely drop a word with Marco, he will likely reimburse you for local cobbler expenses to fix this.

That's really shocking! I would be livid.
