The Hera still drapes nicely with a top zipper. I have three other Heras, in red cherry nappa, royal blue goat suede leather, and pewter laminato metallic. I also have a Hera Midi in dark green Sorrento (goat) leather. This bag does not drape as much due to its smaller size and the stiffer goat leather.
I do prefer zipper closures on my bags. I like my things tucked away and secure at all times.
I have both leathers and they are somewhat similar. I agree with @tenKrat it is not shiny it is subtle sheen and with more a soft luster. I love the leather. My daughter has all my BE sheen bags but I will ask her if she can get them out and take a photograph. I have petrol, fuschia, lime green and black sheen BE bags.
Maybe I "need" 
an Anchor Grey Calista...?
I have always previously missed out on Marco's limited-leather offers, as I have no talent for imagining bag/leather combos I have never seen. Then, 2-3 months down the line, photos turn up on this thread of the beautiful bags you lot have ordered in these rare and beautiful leathers. And I kick myself, thinking: "Why didn't I think of that!"

Would love you all to share your own ideas and plans for Sheen...

I was thinking of one of these combos in a style I haven't had Aphrodite or perhaps I will just go with another soulmate 
Just wish soulmate was a smidge smaller :
Hot Magenta/black handles/dark gunmetal- lilac or purple interior?
Sacramento Green/brown handles/gold hw- sage green or tortilla/beige interior?
I don't quite have a color like the green... but I also really like the pop of magenta.

Aphrodite is a good choice for sheen leather if you want to try a new style instead of getting another Soulmate. In size, Aphrodite falls about midway between Soulmate and Soulmate Midi.I was thinking of one of these combos in a style I haven't had Aphrodite or perhaps I will just go with another soulmate

Both combinations you indicated sound great. The tortilla lining would look really nice with the Sacramento Green. If the Hot Magenta will work better with your wardrobe, then go with that. I think black side panels on the Aphrodite in Hot Magenta (with black handles, dark gunmetal HW, and purple lining) would look fabulous.
My MIL ordered a Victoria Midi in Anchor Grey (body, straps, and center part of flap) and Sea Green (all the trim); dark gunmetal HW, and silver lining.Would love you all to share your own ideas and plans for Sheen...

Hot Magenta might look good with Anchor Grey, too... And/or Dark Grey Nappa...
This is so fun!

Ladies! I know everyone is currently captivated by gorgeous Sheen, but is there any interest in Midnight Blue Tuscania? I have a dream bag in that leather but Marco told me they would have to order skins and there hasn't been any interest. Just look how pretty! (photo courtesy Coleen I think, lol)
