Thank you everyone for your kind comments. [emoji4]

It’s about the size of the normal Angelica and fits the same. I had a run it with light rain yesterday and the leather came out unscathed. No water mark, nothing. The water drop just roll right off and I didn’t treat mine beforehand.

It has fine glitter ingrained in the leather hence the name, I think.

After a few days, I can say this is a great bag and ones in zip top will be great for traveling. [emoji4]
 
Ladies, most of my "last order" came in! I got me some colorful goodies. [emoji7]
First up is the little Tulipano interior in amethyst pompei. She is little. But she fits the basics. Next is Sabrina midi in Athene China blue. Such a gorgeous color - hard to picture. Love her with dark gunmetal hardware. I finally got a hot pink Zhoe. I would have wanted a deeper pink, but this one is beautiful and I was not going to miss out on one last Zhoe. This picture shows her lighter than irl. My camera and the lighting did not help.
Last but not least is a sweet Penelope in pebbled cyber yellow. I love this shade of yellow! View attachment 4213224View attachment 4213236View attachment 4213239View attachment 4213241

Beautiful choices! I especially love the pebbled cyber yellow! I would have loved to get something in that colour, but I needed to cover all the neutrals first. Perhaps if Marco is able to continue...

Carrying the Little Valerie today and I figured I’ll share some notes with the class :smile:. I forgot to mention that I asked Marco for a slightly lower profile of the top handle, as I am not a big fan of rigid upright ones :smile:.
It is definitely an “essentials plus” or “a lady is waiting” kind of bag :biggrin:. As you can see on what fits photos, it does the mandatory keys/wallet/cell phone well. If said wallet is small, then you can also fit a kindle and sunnies in a soft case. It can fit a large continental wallet on top of all this, but then it definitely becomes a handbag Tetris kind of situation. There is a little extra room for small items like a chapstick or earbuds, but not much else. She will get you through a summer outdoor wedding, a date, wait time for a doctor’s appointment, or will serve as a nice companion to a larger bag to contain the essentials. The snaps relaxed a bit and now are a lot easier to open and close.
2 small nit picky things that are worth mentioning about this style in Pompei specifically. Since it doesn’t have any backing, the bottom of the bag when it’s loaded rounds up a little, making it topple when placed on a table, if that tends to drive you nuts, might be worth asking Marco for a reinforced bottom. Another thing (can be sort of seen in mod shots) is when a bulky item is put into one or slip pockets, the leather on the front of the bag bends inward a bit, creating a little crater of sorts.
Modshots are what fits with a standard kindle for scale, crossbody wear on the longest setting (I am just under 5 9’), and an outdoor color shot on an overcast morning. @tenKrat’s photo of a plant is dead on color-wise :smile:.
Hope this helps someone!
Gorgeous bag. All of these shots are so helpful. If Marco can find a way to remain open, some mod shots would really help his website. So tough to really see how a bag works otherwise!
