Does anyone have photos of a color blocked Miss M?
I stumbled across one online recently, but since it was a great pic that I had only ever seen in this one place, I naturally can't find it again!! I've looked in the usual places (FB, TPF, Insta, MM website, MM blog), but no luck.
I have a red and black color-blocked Miss M. Here are photos.

I was inspired to get a color-blocked Miss M by this one in black, dark green and taupe.
 
I’m cutting it close, but I just emailed Marco with my order - Midi Minerva in rust Handmade Vacchetta, longer flap, and with fringe. I’ve asked him for recommendations for hardware and lining. Marine is probably my favorite color for lining, but I’m not sure how it would look with the rust so I’m eager to hear what he suggests.

A part of me still wonders if I should have gone for tan, but the rust is just so rich and a bit different than what I feel like I usually see I the brown/tan family so I think I’ll be happy with it. @coach943 - Thank you for posting photos of your bag! It made me feel much more confident in choosing rust!
This is going to be so stunning. I can’t wait to see it.
 
I took some additional pictures in the daylight of my new Rust Handmade Vacchetta bag. It is definitely one of those leathers that looks very different depending on the lighting. The contrast stitching is beige, the interior is beige fabric, and the hardware is dark gunmetal. I almost got gold hardware instead of the dark gunmetal, but I don't really like gold hardware. I'm so glad I went with the dark gunmetal. It gives it a bit of an edgier look.

So rich color! I can't wait my Rust brown Little Miss M!
 
I also received my new Hera yesterday. It's in Dark Brown Aquila Matte with sage lining. This is my first bag in Aquila Matte. Marco told me it is a very underrated leather, and I have to agree. It's very soft to the touch. It works great with Hera. I also really like the sage lining. It's a much softer green than what I expected.

I have been attracted in Aquila Matte leather. It is so beautiful. I will go for this leather in the next promotion!

Love your Hera, too. I have a Theia in Aquila matte ans I have to second that the leather is underrated.
This is beautiful I love the green with the brown! What do you think of the Aquila matte? I’m debating a full Hera eventually but not sure what leather. This looks beautiful and huggable!
I have a full seized Theia in Aquila matte. It is my most used Theia. The leather is quite lightweight and puddles. It develops patina and scratches. You have to keep that in mind if you like your bags to look pristine.

Would love to see a photo of your Theia - it sounds beautiful!
 
Hmm, dark gunmetal or light gold hardware for rust handmade Vacchetta? I adore dark gunmetal when it’s paired with black or other dark colors, but I’m not sure about it paired with rust. Gold seems like the more natural/obvious choice…thoughts?
