Thank you :hugs: Although I really want another Clio, I decided that sorrento is a tad too soft for an otherwise structured style, albeit small. I’m likely going to go with a Bouquet Midi (black, red lining, gold HW, and a bunch of modifications). Your Diva Midi in the purple sorrento is one of my favourite MM bags, and I think the burgundy sorrento is as close as I can get to that purple, I might get it as one of my future MM bags. As for Clio, I’m probably going to get it in handmade vacchetta in black during a future sale (purse funds has depreciated these few weeks and need a bit replenishing).

That’s one juicy plum colour.
A bouquet will look beautiful in this leather and combo! I can't wait to see it. And yes, I think the vacchetta is a good call for the Cleo.

@christinemliu I think you’re biggest fan of brown leather here, if I remembered correctly :giggle: for my sorrento order, I’m now thinking of dark brown as a possible choice (my mind must’ve changed 194829572 times on what colour to get). Which lining colour (fabric) do you think goes well with the dark brown?

@Fancyfree you’re another brown colour lover I think :hugs: Any recommendation on lining colour too?

Anyone else with any ideas for lining colour that goes well with brown, please give some recs! Thanks in advance!

I think picking the lining for brown bags is really difficult. I typically like contrasting colors, but I find brown to be difficult.

I recently did dark brown with sage lining. It is my first bag with sage lining, and I really like it. Sage is definitely going to be in the running for brown bags in the future. Picture is here.

I did beige lining for my rust brown vacchetta. It turned out great, too. Picture is here.

I think I did the light fuchsia with my mahogany vacchetta Aphrodite. I don't think I have a photo of the lining, but the pink with it is not my favorite. I like the sage and beige lining better.
 
The recent Hera in Aquila Matte is mine. I've only carried it once, but I love it. It has a really nice feel to it that is different than other leathers I've gotten from Marco. I like the way it drapes on Hera. I'd recommend it for a bag on the softer side like a Hera. Calista in it would be very nice.
It's gorgeous. I love the style in this leather.

This really helps as I choose a lining for my natural Sorrento midi Siena

I have three brown Massaccesis (espresso brown is actually my favorite color!). I would choose red, apple green, or beige lining, depending on the mood you're going for.

For dark brown Sorrento, I think light pink, lilac, light blue, red, and sage would be nice contrasting colors. For neutral colors, beige, tortilla, and cappuccino would look good.

I have a limited brown leather (Caiman iridescent) with lilac lining, and the combination is quite stunning.

Hrmph :huh:. "My" Dark Brown looks a lot nicer on the promo photos... I'd better check with Marco...
@Fancyfree , just an idea, you could always indicate to Marco in your order the particular shade you're looking for! Also, this was done later in the day, so I think indoor lighting.

@Devyn Danielle , I LOVE this Demetra!

@afroken, yes, hahaha, I'm flattered that you remember my love for brown! Soooo, you may have noticed that I've done lots of brown and blue: my favorite is light blue. I've also done navy but it can be a little dark. These are the ones I gravitate to, though @coach943 also made great choices (I love the beige with the rust Vacchetta)!
