DHL dropped off my MM bags today. Now I just need to get home to unpack. I thought it was my first order (bluette merinos Hera and Dark Taupe Penelope Messenger), but it was actually my second order that came. Can't wait to see my Nude Pebbled Calista and River Blue Vachetta Juliette. Pics to come this weekend!

You got the Juliet! Please post pic! I love the look of this bag, but it look so big on the website. [emoji21]
 
I know! But look at the model! I don't know what sizes they're, but it look like a suitcase on them! My dimensional concept is seriously damaged. [emoji29]

It does look like a suitcase on the blog, lol. I think it's most similar in size to Angelica - just a bit smaller.

Juliet
Base width: cm. 34,5 ( 13.6“ )
Height: cm. 22,5 ( 8.85” )
Base to top depth: cm. 16 - 14 ( 6.3” - 5.5" )
Handle drop: cm. 11 ( 4.3”)

Angelica
Base to top width: cm. 29 - 35 (11.4" - 13.8")
Height: cm. 24 (9.45")
Depth: cm. 13 (5.1")
Handle drop: cm. 11,5 (4.5")
 
I order my Selene Zip Midi just for this reason. The zippers are the bling for me. I haven't used those compartments yet. I just dump everything in the main compartment. I know I could have just ordered the midi one without the zipper, but I love the look of the Zip one more.

With the ruby red, if it were for me, I'd pick gold hardware or one of the gunmetals. The light gunmetal look gray and the dark gunmetal look black. Red is quite a strong color IMHO, and I'd prefer it with all-out gold or tone-down gunmetal. But that's my taste. [emoji4]
Thank you. I posted that wrong, if I get the red I would put the dark gunmetal with it. I meant to say that a midnight blue with zippers would look great with the silver HW.
 
Another thing that I would love to have comments on is the Selene midi with and without the zippered front, pros and cons. I do not carry much in my bags and I have two organizers, one small, one medium, that I use because I switch bags so often, usually daily. So the front zippers for me would be strictly esthetic. I think the zippers can add a little "bling" to the front of the purse, e.g., if I used the silver HW with the ruby red leather. I would love to hear your thoughts.
I don't really "use" the pockets: one holds a couple of plastic bags for emergencies of one sort or another, and the other holds the messenger strap when not in use. I've also stuffed a mini umbrella inside. But I don't really think about putting stuff in there, just in the body. For me those zippers subtly add "edge" to a beautifully built bag! AND don't forget they are only on one side of the bag, so you can decide whether they are on dispay or not. Silver with ruby will be breathtaking!

Just got home and unwrapped my goodies. I am in love!! The Calista is not as big as I thought and I really like the nude pebbled.
The Juliette is very sophisticated. Because it is in the vachetta leather and stuffed, it looks a little more structured and big. I'm sure that when I take the stuffing out and put my things in it, it will look great. The river blue is so pretty! I'll get pics tomorrow.
