Fantastic! I hope you don't mind, but I am so copying this design!Thank you
Sure the side pockets can hold a waterbottle.. The bottle on the pic sits a bit loose, but the bag is empty.I can still carry it without the bottle falling out!

Thanks to Marco, so you’re most wellcome .His doing.. lol.Fantastic! I hope you don't mind, but I am so copying this design!
He knows I like extra pockets to place books, phone, glasses etc, because I am not an organised person. I find it so interesting that so many can have extra pouches with this and that in them. I plop stuff into my bags..and only have a purse as an extra with me. So in order not to rummage too much in the bag.. it is easier to check pockets!
As will IFantastic! I hope you don't mind, but I am so copying this design!
Wish Marco would do a Travel Bag Promo...

"I've already received requests for a Little Theia and I can already let you know that we'll do it! It won't be possible to add all these new versions of many existing MM styles to our eShop but I'll do my best to show all these new sizes the soonest possible."
Wow, this is stunning! You’ve just made me put this travel bag on my list…complete with the pockets like yours, if you don’t mind! Gorgeous!
Looking forward to seeing this. I think a Little Theia in vachetta would be super cute!
Anyone who owns /has owned a Little Minerva 
,- I need advice 
I am nearing completion of my order for a Little Minerva.
To my surprise I see that standard width of Little Minerva shoulder strap is the same as for Minerva Midi - 3 cm
Please tell me,-
do you feel the 3 cm wide shoulder strap looks proportionate with the size of Little Minerva or have you ever wished it were slimmer ?

I don’t know why it took me so long to take this bag for a spin? I think mentally I thought it was too big for every day but you know what? Use the bag. it is a bigger bag esp for satchel/arm carry but its such a beautiful size and shape I think its lovely and comfortable to wear. I used an insert in it cuz I don’t carry enough to fill her up and the insert is perfect.
What are you using this lovely Sunday?
Pictured: Charlotte Satchel in Med Grey Pompei and Lilac Lining. Some slightly darker edge paint and contrast stitching really brings this bag to life!

The width of the shoulder strap for Little Minerva is one of my favourite things about this bag. It did not look disproportionate with the rest of the bag at all, and I’ve always found the drop of the Little/Midi Minerva shoulder strap to be perfect (in fact, I’ve ordered separate Little/Midi Minerva shoulder straps for non-MM bags as well). Proportions aside, if you’re like me and prefer walking to driving or taking transit, you’ll appreciate the width of the strap widthAnyone who owns /has owned a Little Minerva

Hope this helps!Edit 1: Included side photos of my Little Minervas which show the width of the strap against the bag itself. Both bags are no longer in my possession but I kinda have sellers remorse over selling the tweed one…
Edit 2: IMO nappa was a mistake for me in regards to the Little Minerva style, see how the leather creases at the side? Softer leathers (or leathers with more texture and variations) would crease in a more “natural” way rather than looking as if they were “forcibly folded”, if that makes any sense.

oh wow! I Love the bag shape and the handles. The HMV is really showcased in a bag this size, too.

. Regular strap it is, then
