Any BE ladies with Athene leather??
Is it similar to what we know as 'Sheen' ??? Because if this is the case it will become better and better ! But will need a little care with lotion now and then..and the bag will develop just great! Looking forward recieving my Athena.. :biggrin:

I have Athene leather and BE sheen...if it isn't the exact same, it is VERY similar. I cannot tell a difference.
 
But with my awesome bag shaper from etsy I might even go for one in the floppiest leathers like merinos or tuscania and not worry about it. I've put my bag shaper into bags that are as floppy as an empty pillowcase and they stand up perfectly. I'm in love with my midi selene sized bag shaper! Wish it fit into my midi angel without getting crushed, but it goes beautifully into my Arianna and midi divina as well although those bags don't really need a shaper. But nice for organization.
It was $38 on etsy, I think the name of the store is senoma bag shapers or something,
I was totally READY to order two of these amazing bag custom organizer/shapers:
https://www.etsy.com/listing/485943145/custom-size-purse-insert-organizer-bag
and then Etsy said it wouldn't ship to the US. :mad::cursing::panic::crybaby:
Can anyone recommend a bag organizer/shaper, ideally one that ships to the US without complaining? I've survived this far without, though I do have a Tintamar that has proved useful, especially when I'm traveling and changing between backpacks and purses. I was just in the mood to have something special to keep Arianna and Selene happy...

My bag is light colored, called beige but I think it is more cream, so I have not considered it for travel. I think tenKrat brought hers on a trip.
That's right. I took my rust vachetta Zhoe Legend to Tokyo last summer, and it was perfect. I special ordered a top zipper closure for the central compartment. That's where I put my wallet and passport.

The vachetta is a great travel leather in a small to medium bag, like the Zhoe Legend. Otherwise, it would be too heavy for me. I didn't worry about my bag getting wet because this particular vachetta can handle a few raindrops and come out okay.

Look at 47thHeaven (in the US) and OriginalClub. Samorga also ships to US. Samorga is not on etsy. Has its own site. Purse-To-Go is another good one depending on what type of organizer you want.

Clover sac from Taiwan. Great product. Takes a couple of weeks to get here, but worth it.

I have purchased a couple bag organizers from Divide and Conquer. They are fantastic. She will also customize them, so you can have her make it to fit your needs. https://www.etsy.com/shop/DivideAndConquer
 
As much as I like the new styles I'm thinking about getting new leathers in my tried and true fave styles. Considering either a stormy sea green merinos or hazel tan athene midi minerva and either a denim pebbled or avio athene midi selene.

I am also reconsidering getting a tuscania midi minerva while that leather's still around. I shouldn't get a bag that casual for work, but I think I'd just adore it.
I love the sea green merino it is my favorite new leather out of the spring/summer leathers. I also like the denim pebbled. Love midi Selene and also midi Minerva. So many lovely choices.

Thanks for all the suggestions! I took a good look around, but nothing worked quite as well as what I had set my heart on... And then I wrote to the seller SENAMONbagORGANIZER, and she very kindly adjusted the settings for me to place my order. Just goes to show: sometimes all you need to do is ASK!
 
I did a two tone Aphrodite!
WOW!!!!! This took my breath away!

When I got the latest swatches, I loosely entertained the idea of a two tone bag, say dark grey Merinos and deep fuchsia Merinos, or the new Bluette Merinos and black Merinos, or Smoke grey Pebbled and Flirt Red... :tup::tup: Not sure whether Aphrodite is for me, or whether I could carry off the look!

I can't help but curious about the Calista. I know I won't use it as a hobo. But as a crossbody, it's very interesting. Do you think there's a chance Marco will make a sample bag to show it as a crossbody? I mean they already said that it can be done in the description, right?

Maybe. It's more likely someone here will order one and you can see it as a mod shot. Or Colette may post one to her blog if she orders one.

I also had a great experience buying from her.
