Made a mistake re model and Cobblestone!
The Calista is in Cameo Athene ( lengthened strap to a messenger and an outer pocket)
The Theia is coming in the Cobblestone!!
...and finally Cassandra in Denim pebbled .. yes, I like this model :love:
Blue colours I normally stay clear off, but this one and Tuscania Dark blue will go well together with denim..

I absolutely adore blue. It is what I should have bought. I can't wait to see your new bags. Hope your feeling better too.
 
The comparison pics in Colette's blog really sold me on the Calista. I really like the slouchiness and I'm sure the bag will look smaller once it is loaded up. So I have a couple of orders from the S/S 2017 collection so I need to stop for awhile. I ordered the Hera in Bluette Merinos with silver hardware and silver lining, Penelope Messenger in Dark Taupe pebbled with detachable long and detachable short straps, Calista in Nude pebbled and the Juliette in River blue vachetta. So excited!

oooh, exciting! I can't wait to see your river blue vachetta Juliet!! That's the style that tempts me the most and vachetta is my fav.
 
I am so bummed. I decided not to order a Massaccesi right now in order to wait for pictures from you guys of the new styles. I've heard great things about Rough and Tumble. Ordered a tote a week ago, said it was delivered on Monday. I never received it. I was advised to wait a few more days, which I did. I called them this morning, and they said basically once it leaves them it's no longer their responsibility. So, I'm just supposed to be out of $300???? I will never order from them again.
Devin Danielle so sorry to hear about your Rough and Tumble order going missing and no recourse. Thank you for telling us about it as it serves as a warning for anyone else who as planning to order anything from them.

Pleased MM is more responsive about lost bags. I had 2 MM bags go missing for weeks this was a long time ago. MM wanted to replace the bags. I told them to wait a little longer and finally my 2 bags showed up after 12 weeks. Marco was so upset about it he kept contacting me saying he wanted to remake my bags. Well all is well that ends well and they arrived. So who knows perhaps your bag might show up.
 
I'm probably still going to do the Calista in Whiskey Tuscania, but the Theia might be mine in Granite Grey too!! Theia doesn't look that big in the comparison shots - looking about the same size as a Minerva Midi.
Your choices are so right on---I would choose Tuscania for Calista and Theia also. I like the Granite Grey, too, in either of these styles.

I hope someone gets the Theia Midi so that I can see it before I'm ready to order again. I have a feeling that of the two sizes, the regular Theia will drape better with more folds in the leather. That's what makes a fabulous hobo.

I love the hardware detail on the Theia.
 
Thinking of a Penelope Messenger in Denim Pebbled with silver or gunmetal hardware. I need to sell some stuff to fund this!!
We are on the same wavelength, Vannie. I thought of the same style and combo, too. I won't get it, though. I already have two Penelope messengers in neutrals, grey merinos and taupe pebbled, that should go with my entire wardrobe. If you do get this bag, then I will just enjoy looking at your bag pics.

Oh, I will enjoy the pics of your new bags, especially the Calista (in nude pebbled! Been curious about this leather) and the Juliet.
 
So far I'm ready to order a Penny Messenger in Granite Tuscania. I love this color even more than the midnight blue!

I'm wondering about a midsize bag: possibly the Hera with a top zipper added, and maybe even exchanging the strap/hardware with the Theia (which is much cooler!). It does seem a bit big for me, though, so maybe wait for a midi version? Or maybe another Midi Zip Selene, again with top zip and messenger strap added: but what leather??? So many good choices now....
