Ok thank you so much! Of all the Sabrina pix i’ve seen, i never saw a pocket. Thank you for answering my question , and i think i will stay with the pocket for the rest, its very functional for phone storage

I posted this a long time ago. I thought it was neat the way MM styled it so you can get to your phone in the pocket with the bag folded over.

I’m really excited to see what it looks like! Also, you DO recommend the slip pocket on the Juliet, yes? It sounds like you have found it helpful and a few others have mentioned it too. It I’m wondering now about the overall aesthetic of the bag. This is me is buyer’s panic mode BTW :panic:

Kimba, if that picture of the bordeaux Verona above is true to color, your bag is going to be absolutely gorgeous. I am going to be jealous of you.

Absolutely yes on the extra outside slip pocket. Stop worrying about your bag. It is going to be gorgeous and you are going to love it!!

I got my Grande Mia last week and took some pictures today.
I also posted on the reference picture thread

The Grande Mia is very comfortable to carry across the body.
I have a 1.2" wide messenger strap though.
I ordered mine with the hooks at the top handle and inside the bag.
They are both equally comfortable but look a bit different so it's just personal preference.
I also added a top zipper like the Zhoe but haven't used it but it will be useful.

The Grande Mia also has a different lock than the Mia, this one is more easy to use and I like it more. Marco said that the lock for the Mia will remain the same until his supplier creates something of that size.

Here's the Grande Mia (black vacchetta) and Mia (bordeaux glitter pompei)
Note that the top handle has different handle drops.
If you want it to be like the Mia (8cm), remember to specify when you order

Group pic to compare the depth of the bags:

Even though the Grande Mia seems to have about the same width as the Zhoe, it cannot carry an iPad well.
I can feel that there is a gap between the bottom of the Grande Mia and the iPad when I put it in. This does not happen with a Zhoe. I would not recommend using the Grande Mia to carry the iPad (unless you have a smaller version) as I can see the corners of the iPad poking at the side of the Grande Mia when I put it in.

LOL -- thanks for the reassurance. I guess I was wondering, like @jbags07, how the pocket might affect the asethetic of the bag and also how it would look in smooshier leather -- I love the look of it on the Vachetta and Pompei bag. I combed the thread last night just to see what the slip pocket looks like on the bag and I am feeling OK about it today. Plus, I like the added room it would give.

My midi Juliets haven't shipped yet, but I added the rear slip pocket. The stated dimensions are on the small side of what I usually like so adding external pockets increases capacity and more likely to work for me. Great to slip a phone in there.

The bag is small and I think if I had not added the long slip pocket I would not like it enough to order another one.
