Massaccesi Handbags

My big statement bag, Hera in royal blue goat suede, light gunmetal hw, and a dark brown Aquila matte strap. I will ask Marco to make another strap that is much shorter. I didn’t realize that this strap makes the bag hang too low on me.

Lots of beautiful bright blue, soft leather:


And the orange lining makes me happy, too:

I ordered an Angelica Messenger in the navy blue cuoio vachetta and a Zhoe in the Amber tan cuoio vachetta. The Amber tan looks very similar to the original rust vachetta ( maybe just a tad deeper)which sold out awhile ago

Love your choices!

Nice pic. I love all the colors of the fruits, veggies, and your Little Miss M.

Thank you. The food was delicious! And the Little Miss M is a definite keeper.

I have had requests to post modeling pics of the Luna. I also posted comparisons against Juliet midi and penny messenger

. These are all beauties.

The new leathers Marco just posted are amazing!

The bag I ordered from the Kickstarter campaign arrived today via UPS.
Oh dear TenK you are so creative! I love this bag. To see the detail close up is amazing. As always you help me with new ideas. And the short strap is great,

Luna in burgundy and rose pebbled leather, light gunmetal hw, silver lining, and the shortened strap (14.5”).

Ladies I am curious. I am about 2.5 years into MM bag purchases. My first buys were the larger bags, like the Selene, the Modena, etc. But as MM has progressed and as I have progressed in my bag journey, I am now buying much smaller bags. I would like to trim the number of bags in my closet, but it is really hard to part with the original ones.
Are you changing your styles/sizes/leathers compared to early on? Are you selling/trading/ or gifting your original bags? It is really hard for me to put them on the market.

. I sell, trade and gift... and it looks like I may have a couple that just can’t make my rotation! So that means they are probably perfect for someone else. I am now tending to buy smaller bags.

I don't have FB so I would have to create a profile for just that. Would they think that looked suspicious? Because I"m not joining FB for real.

. I think that would be fine... we know you.. I’d love to see your “oops” bags.

I have a friend who hasn’t master TPF but she is a MM lover. She is going through chemo for breast cancer. She got the absolutely sweetest email in the world from Marco today. It brings tears to my eyes. And she nabbed some green goat! Where else in our world does that happen???

That is heart warming. With all of the hatred being spewed in the news, we need more stories like this.

Try the original Hera short strap, the hardware is so unique.

Oh...I love blue and brown!!! Really, you have a way of picking the best combos. While you wait for a new strap from Marco, would a Minerva Midi one somewhat work in the meantime?

Will do.

As some of you may have noted, I really like the Minerva shoulder strap (I have a few for different bags), so that’s what I requested. I failed to clarify that it should be made in the same length as the original Hera strap. No big deal. I can still use the current strap because it actually works well as a crossbody strap on me.

I might be able to use one of my Minerva shoulder straps. I will have to find a coordinating color that looks nice with the blue suede because none of my straps are dark brown.

I'll set that up this weekend. It's not really 'oops'...the Tulipano I got in Pompeii is pretty, but I really like other leathers more than Pompeii now that I have a range of bags. I was thinking about giving it to my SIL but she's annoying me so I'd rather sell it.

That bag is so perfect! The color, the style. I wish I did not already have one or I would make you an offer you cannot refuse, sigh. Sorry you are having to work this weekend.

I love this leather color. Looks like chartreuse to me. Is it chartreuse? One of my favorite colors. Gorgeous ❤️
