Wow, kudos tenKrat--six times! I have gone through a back and forth transatlantic move once and would prefer never to have to do that again. At one point during packing, (when you make more of a mess than when you started), I just looked around my flat and wanted fall and the floor and cry, call my new boss in Europe to tell him I was staying stateside.

Oh... my... lots of hugs to you.
 
You're moving? For a season or for good? Wow... if I were you, I'd definitely miss the view. But I wish you the best for the new place!
Just for this season in my life. It's likely that I will return to Hawaii in several years. Best place to live. I'm excited about being on the mainland. I'll still live in a tropical climate, so that's all right.
 
good morning ladies! I am loving all these recent photos....don't know what I enjoy more! looking at Massacccesi bags or drinking espresso from my new Nespresso machine (good bye Starbux!)

I have a question, wondering if someone can help me out....I was cheating on Marco this morning, look around at other brands of bags and i noticed that Patricia Nash has a very cool line of interchangeable "guitar straps" .....crossbody bag straps that can be swapped out with one of her handle-less crossbody bags. Trouble is, I love some the straps : embroidery & leather designs! etc....would love to use them with another bag that has interchangeable hooks for straps....her designs are in black or tan leather....(think traditional Coach leather shades)..... can any of you think of other brands that offer crossbody bags I could use these straps with? Her crossbody bags are just too small for me... maybe I need to find a link... here it is:

www.patricianashdesigns.com. - under custom bags and straps....although more summery straps are shown in her collection on Macys.com. anyway, have a great day all! thanks

Hi ladies! I've enjoyed seeing all of your MM purchases over these last couple of years. I finally took the plunge with a Demetria in smoke grey a few months back, which I love. I've just received my second order: a Calista in Dark Blue Verona and a colorblock Miss M in black, dark green, and taupe nappa. Here are pics of my Miss M.

This is gorgeous. I love all the new color block bags. They are so unique and amazing. Love it.

A few questions for all who bought a Calista: Do you like how it sits on your shoulder? Does it have room to carry what you need on a daily basis? Is it easy or hard to find stuff inside the bag?

I love the Calista style! It stays on my shoulder and is very comfortable to carry. It holds the same amount of things that I carry in my Minerva, Soulmate, or Selene. I was concerned by how much it would hold because the depth was smaller than any of my other bags. When I put my things in, it slouches beautifully and doesn't look overstuffed or fat. The picture I posted of my Tobacco Aquila matte Calista earlier has my things in it so you can see that it looks well proportioned with everything in it.

When you refer to your Soulmate, is that a Midi or a Full Soulmate?
 
I only have the full Soulmate.

Thank you for that. With this information, I now know that the Calista will work for me. A few posts back, you discussed the weight and durability of the Aquila Matte leathers, and I found that information to be very useful as well. This leads me to my next MM bag: a Calista in Jeans Blue Aquila Matte. Which lining do you think would work best: silver or dark gray?

P.S. I can't thank you enough for sharing your insight and photos of the new MM bags.
