I got my Modena Midi in black Fiore leather specifically for travel, and she serves her purpose very well. I take off the longer messenger strap and carry her by the shorter handles for a more formal look. The pockets in the front hold a hotel room key card, small tickets, and receipts. The open back pocket that I had added holds my large iPhone. The size is neither too big or too small for travel. The Fiore leather is light and durable. Modena Midi with the shorter handles and detachable messenger strap is an excellent and versatile travel handbag.

Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow Americans.
Your mod shots are always awesome! :)
I'm thinking this would be a great bag for work. Does it fit documents or is it a tad too small for that?
Thank you! :)

I apologize for being such a bad PF member and MM fan! I received my color-blocked Sabrina a while ago, but I’m just getting around to posting photos now. I’ve been off PF for awhile because I found out I was pregnant and then was hit with unrelenting morning sickness for months-I just couldn’t muster up the energy to take/post any photos.

This is a full-sized Sabrina in Persian green metallic on one side, cobalt blue metallic on the other, and dark blue metallic on the inner. It has silver hardware and fuschia lining. My photos are unfortunately very poor and do not do the bad justice, but I hope they kind of suffice anyway. I haven’t had a chance to use this yet, but I do hope to do so soon!

Tagging @jblended as I know you had wanted to see how this turned out!

I also had ordered a Penelope in Bluette Africa. I intend to use this as my mommy pouch inside of a diaper bag. Again, My photos aren’t the greatest-I’m sorry! I feel like these photos make it look more purple toned than I see in real life. The Bluette Africa is very similar to the cobalt blue metallic, which I knew and Marco had confirmed, so I do feel kind of silly getting to bags with basically the same color. But, I’m also a sucker for cobalt blue colors so I went ahead with it anyway.

I had Marco pick the lining and hardware, and he picked the light blue lining and dark gunmetal hardware-very happy with these choices! I also had a shoulder strap added.

I apologize for being such a bad PF member and MM fan! I received my color-blocked Sabrina a while ago, but I’m just getting around to posting photos now. I’ve been off PF for awhile because I found out I was pregnant and then was hit with unrelenting morning sickness for months-I just couldn’t muster up the energy to take/post any photos.

This is a full-sized Sabrina in Persian green metallic on one side, cobalt blue metallic on the other, and dark blue metallic on the inner. It has silver hardware and fuschia lining. My photos are unfortunately very poor and do not do the bad justice, but I hope they kind of suffice anyway. I haven’t had a chance to use this yet, but I do hope to do so soon!

This is a feast for the eyes :loveeyes: I’m not very creative with colours so I would never come up with this combination. Love this creation!

And congratulations on your good news!! Wish you and your family all the best!

Oh wow! Congratulations! Sorry about the morning sickness, but I hope you're past that stage now. :hugs:

And this bag! STUNNING! Your imagination really created something spectacular! I hope you love it and get the chance to use it soon!
Thanks so much for posting it for me. I was so excited to see this reveal. It's better than I'd expected! :tup:

Cobalt blue is my favourite colour of all time, so I would have done the same as you!
It's stunning!

Wear them both in good health, and congrats all around! :smile:

Edit: I just noticed your tattoo! How cute. I hope we can all get to say we're loved at some point in our lifetimes.

Modena Midi is too small for documents. I took a photo anyway to give everyone a clear picture of the bag’s size.
Thank you so much for the picture. I really appreciate the visual. :tup:
Edit: I just checked the website and I think the regular Modena would fit documents easily. I didn't realize the style came in different sizes. Good to know I have that option.

Wow this is just gorgeous. I always love these color combinations but I am not very good at creating them. I love what you did with this bag. Of course I am a sucker when it comes to metallics as I have always said I love all of MM metallic leathers. This is stunning enjoy your fabulous new bag. Congrats on your exciting news so fun when we have wonderful news like this on our MM forum.
Hope the morning sickness subsides and you get to feel better soon.
 
Does anyone have bags in pebbled plum, fuchsia, and hot pink? Or at least two of these colours? I'm thinking of a Little Muse in one of those colours in the future and would appreciate a comparison photo :flowers: I feel like I've asked Marco way too many questions and would like to ask everyone here first before I go bother Marco again!

I have the larger Modena that I carry for work. I can fit my MacBook Pro and files in it very easily.

Here is a pic of my very first MM bag - Midi Selene in plum pebbled.
