Ladies with vacchetta bags: which is richer in color, mahogany or dark taupe? Which one really goes with everything? I imagine both are quite neutral. I really should be looking at black, buuut... As an I-rarely-use-a-brown-bag person, I am attracted to these two colors. Do they show a lot of variation irl? Sometimes pictures show more - or less of what is visible to the eye. Yes, I'm thinking of another bag. :shocked: :angel:

Yes. It’s indeed a modified Angelica! [emoji4]

Marco loves the idea when I asked if he can do it. He calls it “Angelica messenger”. [emoji4]


It just arrived and I haven’t gotten to use it yet. But it has a potential to be one of my favorite models. [emoji4]

Your Angelica messenger is fabulous! Love the design modifications and the color. [emoji7] Here's hoping you can enjoy her over the weekend and report back to us. [emoji6] [emoji41]

Vink. Brilliant. Angelica messenger. Did you do other mods? I knew there was a reason why I waited to put in.... drum roll....one more order!

Thank you. [emoji4] No. I only take out the handles and change the way the strap get attached. [emoji4] Go go go! [emoji16] This is a good reason to add one more. [emoji4] Since I own a softened pebble Angelica myself, this style will do well in both structured and slouchy leather. [emoji4]

Would you please stop tempting me! This modified Angelica is TDF. Could you list all of your modifications and the leather type and color?

Allow me to be evil once in a while. [emoji16][emoji16][emoji16] It’s an Angelica without handles. Have the strap attached Arianna style. Original 3 compartments. That’s all. [emoji4] The leather is Acid Nappa. I pick the light blue to go with as a lining. [emoji4]

@vink that Angelica in acid nappa is tdf. I absolutely love that color. I am start to second think myself about the Little Muse in Teal nappa and wondering if I should change to acid nappa. Quick question how versatile do you think the acid nappa is as a color. I am wondering if I would get more use out of acid nappa vs teal nappa. I have looked at the acid nappa time and time again. Darn it. I keep changing my mind.

Go for what your heart long for! I love Acid. It’s the color of a newly replenished leaf that’s just reappear for spring. It’ll do wonder for spring and summer. And will help revive your mood in winter. Autumn maybe a bit tough, but I’m sure it’ll pull through with the right combination. [emoji6]

That’s so pretty! I like how slouchy the leather gets. [emoji4]

Thank you! I wish I could, but just can’t. It arrived before I had to leave for the weekend so all I could do was opened the box, took quick photo, and left the house. [emoji28] I’m sure I’ll report back next week. [emoji4] But my first impression is that it may have been more secure in a sense if I choose to go with the top zipper. However, I decided to go with original 3 compartments on this one so it may feels like an open tote in a sense. But I have another one coming (It’s from the glitter Pompeii released though. I had Marco withheld my shipment due to constant traveling so many bags I ordered just started to arrive now. [emoji28]) That one has a top zipper. [emoji4]

I asked him about acid or teal and he said to stay with teal nappa for the little Muse.

Either will be nice in their own way. I had a hard time deciding, between navy blue and taupe in July , too. I picked navy blue at the end coz it’s just the safe bet for me and my friend said it’s more me and I trust her. I do have regret for a long while, but not anymore. I still think that taupe look very nice, but I think navy is something I’ll use more. [emoji4]
