Massaccesi Handbags

[Coastal jewel]

It holds EVERYTHING. It's fantastic as a laptop bag, as with dual zippered compartments you can have your flat items (laptop, ipad, kindle, whatever) in one section and some other stuff (personal items, cosmetics, water bottle etc) in another. Pebbled and Vacchetta are among the heaviest of Marco's leathers, so this is not a light bag, especially when it's fully loaded. However, with my special request for longer handles I can carry it on my shoulder and the weight distributes very comfortably, plus a luggage sleeve makes it perfect for travel. I imagine in Pompei or Merinos this will be a much lighter style. I sort of can see what you mean Re: Amazona, but to me Amazona is more of a stately lady satchel, whereas Siena is a work/travel Bento box of a bag .

Everytime I see this I try to figure out if I’d make this my new travel bag but I actually can’t justify it and will just keep looking at it and envisioning a smaller version w these exact leathers..

Ladies, here are some pics of my MM goodies. Finally!
Theia midi in bordeaux vacchetta- fuschia lining and dark gunmetal hardware, Penelope with additional ajdustable strap in sapphire merinos - yellow lining and light gold hardware, and Phoebe in leaf pebbled - also yellow lining with silver hardware.
I'm thrilled! I'm in love with Theia midi. She is the perfect size. This blue will get a lot of use this summer. You know I consider most blues a neutral.
Leaf is my favorite green. I hope to be able to get something else in this color down the road...

I'm so glad you like the Theia! It's now one of my favorites. I don't need to tell you how much I love that leaf pebbled. I have had so many compliments on my Theia in that color. I've also noticed that it is a very versatile green.

I actually did ask Marco at some point if he ever considered turning a smaller Siena into a camera bag of sorts. Ie shrinking it down by quite a bit, losing the top handles, but keeping the dimensional ratio and fantastic double compartment and pockets. It was before the KS so now it's hard to tell. I would so buy that bag though.

Theia midi is really a great size! I intend to get another one sometime in the future. Maybe one in leaf green like yours. We'll be twins! I just love that color! I love a green with more yellow than blue. Just like leaf.

Totally agree with you about greens. It would be great to be twins! I may need a Phoebe in leaf too!

For comparison for people concerned about size. The Daphne is definitely bigger, but with the rear slip pocket the Midi Juliet holds my essentials.

I believe your Daphne in venezia is the prettiest one I have seen so far. Wow..

I received my Aura(black merino and gunmetal hardware) an my Zhoe(port merino with silver hardware).I sort of wish I had gotten a mini zhoe. I need time to love her more. They smell delicious!
It took almost 3 weeks via USPS to get to me in NYC.
