I enjoy reading all of our different perceptions of the bag sizes. I, for one, could never get my overnight needs into a bag the size of a Juliet. If you can, I'm completely jealous! This is everyday purse size for me!

I agree with tenKRat...it likely looks smaller when holding real things. I will be ordering one and will post pics when it arrives. I look forward to other photos if someone orders before I do.

Yay!!! :heart: Yes, this has top zipper closure. Btw, just a note. My newer red nappa is not as thick IMO as this dark grey leather.

Thank you for the info. I don't mind that. [emoji16] I don't have any Nappa to compare with. [emoji16] I just want to have a slouchy tote and I just love this color. I just hope it'll be as good as I dream of. (I hope I'm not asking for too much. [emoji16])

I second that I love how you are taking the ban. Before retirement or semi retirement, now that I am working part time, I used to buy all new MM bags since retirement and the BST site I have purchased a number of preloved bags. I am loving the BST option as I have purchased some lovely bags from Tenkrat. I am the lucky owner of Tenkrats burgundy Aura with gunmetal hardware which is the most beautiful medium burgundy a close to new hardly used bag. I also purchased her Celeste Zhoe Legend and I love love love it. The bags are in such great condition I would say hardly worn at all. In fact the Celeste Zhoe never left her house. Preloved bags are finding new homes and being used and loved by new owners which I think is a win win for everyone.

Forgive my ignorance, what is the BST site?
Thanks!

I am getting more and more comfortable with the width of Arianna. One thing that seems to work with shoulder carry is that in a very light leather and not packed with stones, even if I bend down to scoop up my one year old from trying to crash her 3 year old sister's Saturday morning hip hop dance class, it stays behind me on my back, doesn't slip down and crash into my tot's face. I kept thinking yesterday that day at the dance studio & mall with pint sized girlies would mean I would need to use Arianna's crossbody strap a lot for easier babywearing and 3 year old wrangling if things get physical. Of course things did but Arianna stayed nicely on my shoulder all the time without feeling like it would slip down and off even when leaning forward and crouching.

As Olaf in Frozen says, "All good things....all good things...."

Man I need to get a non Disney media diet.

If I was not banned I would totally be tempted to get another Arianna. It's the closest to my perfect bag out of the lineup, just kinda wide across the top; not a deal breaker . Since I am banned, I am so glad I don't need any of the new style bags! And there are such nice ones popping up on eBay, so....my collection is nearly half massaccesi (and may grow from second hand purchases), so I will continue to participate in this little lovely lady community (how's that for alliteration?) with musings about my MM bags! I'll miss planning new style/leather/hardware/lining combinations with you guys but I'll enjoy seeing what you guys reveal and my budget is thrilled to buy preloved instead!

HBG, since you still love MM bags, definitely stay with us and keep posting about them. After some time has passed, say six months or so, try for an appeal? Marco may relent if he realizes that it was a misunderstanding complicated by custom orders that didn't work out. I will be happy to speak up for you then, and I hope others will too since you share your sincerity for the brand here.

Awww you are so kind but really it's OK. That's so sweet of you to offer but I am just happy that I'm still welcome to post here about my MM collection and experiences with them. I don't want to bother anyone in this lovely cyber community to put in a good word for me and I don't want to whine. Anyways I was getting out of hand with an average of €400/month MM expenditure which really is too much for our situation. This will help me behave!
