I think this size looks great on you. And I love that color. I have actually found the midi size Selene to be a bit small for me in terms of what I like to carry in a tote bag, so I think you chose the right size given what you like to carry with you.A bit delayed, but mod-shots with my full-size Selene in deep blue Africa. It’s big, but I don’t feel like it’s overwhelming (unless I’m being delusional?Let me know!), which I was a tad bit concerned about. For reference, I’m 5’2”.

It's Port Merinos. I get often get compliments on the colour when I carry this. It's a lovely deep red and Merinos is so soft and drapey.
I thought that looked like Port. My very first MM was a port merinos soulmate midi.
Ah, yes...now I see (after much squinting)! Not nappa.
And one of my first mm bags was port merinos. It is a great color and leather.I thought that looked like Port. My very first MM was a port merinos soulmate midi.
Yes, I love that it doesn’t look too big, but can also be cinched for a different look! And I’m so loving the deep blue Africa! On another note, how awesome that you have so many wonderful Selene. I feel like you must have the most amazing bag collection!
Thanks! The regular size was definitely the right call! It’s like my beloved Neverfull GM, but for those days when big logos won’t do and beautiful leather is a must!
I agree with tenkrat, the strawbags are so soft and seems to be hardy too.. wish I got a few more!

Beautiful straw bags. So good to see you around, dear Bon!
These are great. I wish I had bought ONE, lol.
Classic and chic. Not that I have anywhere to go to wear it except the grocery, lol. But it brings me joy.
River blue vacchetta Zhoe, with outside pocket, fuchia lining.

@girliegirl I hope you don’t mind but I totally copied you...just put an order through and I can’t wait!!!
Many thanks to the folks who offered advice about my order for the End of Summer Sale. I wimped out and ordered a tried and true Zhoe.
I am sorely tempted by the Grande Mia, though. Perhaps one will show up on the BST in the future and I will be able to try it when the financial stakes are lower.

I never consider ordering a Zhoe wimping out it is one of my all time favorite MM styles. I have 6 of them different sizes and love all of them. I have 2 mini Zhoe 3 regular Zhoes and one Zhoe Legend. The orange nappa Zhoe was my 3 MM purchase in 2014 and it has turned out to be one of my favorites. My last one I ordered a platinum mini Zhoe with a Mia handle such a great bag. I read with interest that a number of ladies did not like the 3 pockets on the Zhoe Legend. I love having the 3 pockets in the Legend it keeps me so organized. I use the front pocket for my phone the main compartment for most of my stuff and the back slim pocket I keep my pencil pouch.
