So I wrote to Marco, explaining to him that you had convinced me I needed a Calista Midi like yours :P. Amongst left-over bits of leather he managed to find enough to put together a Midi with 2 inch lengthened shoulder drop in Bluette :happydance:
Bluette verona?! I'm so excited for you and can't wait to hear what you think of the midi with 2" shoulder drop extension modification. Verona is such a wonderful (also severely underrated) leather, it's made for the calista style.

Out of curiosity, do you find that the regular size calista to be too large? Or are you okay with the size?

I need to sit on my hands and not order anymore bags until I can sell a few more because I'm having storage capacity problems (and bare money tree). Otherwise I would've jumped at that dark green verona.

Congrats on another verona goodie :loveeyes:

It is and recently a very dear friend of mine confessed that she does not like verona. I can only attribute it to something that has gone wrong in her brain. There is no other explanation. I was going to unfriend her, but except for this ridiculous notion she is perfect in every way.

WHAT WHAT! I'm actually offended lol! Verona is the dream leather, the ultimate queen of MM's leathers! Granted I haven't tried vacchetta.

Been out and about with my brown Calista today. Yes, it is large. Had room for all my food shopping! But there is something about the design, the smooshy leather and it's low weight that does not make it feel big. And I actually don't think it looks too big, merely really cool. It looks best when carrying something with a bit of weight,- helps the drape.

In 9 1/2 weeks' time, I can compare Midi and full sized :cool:

It was a terrible shock, but what can you say. I love vacchetta too, but it is heavy. I have a Juliet midi and a Zhoe in vacchetta, but I would not want a bigger bag. It is Marco's heaviest leather. But it ages so beautifully!

The Calista is one of the few styles that I have never tried. To be honest I was not a fan of the full sized one, just something about the way it looked did not appeal to me. But when he came out with the midi size, I liked it better. When I saw a gorgeous midi blue Fiore bag on the BST site, I decided to try it. It seems to be a favorite of a lot of you, so I think I am going to be surprised. I love the way it folds and hangs so close to the body, like the BV Veneta which is a style I never bought because the opening is small. Anyway my Calista is on its way here and I am excited to get it.

I’m having a little (JUST A LITTLE) bit of seller’s remorse :biggrin: hope you like one of my favourite styles!
