Thanks! I'm 5'4" for your reference. The vanity case can fit a lot. To illustrate, here's what I put in there (way more than I usually would carry around) and still with room for more! :smile: Not just 1 big iPhone 6+, but also a Samsung Note 3 that's just as big.

Best part is I can keep the bag open while wearing it crossbody to access things. My hip keeps it at an angle so that nothing would fall out. :P

My oxfords were from Zara couple seasons ago!

Just found this thread and love your bag! Do you find it wears well now that you've had it for awhile?
 
Thanks! It's a wonderful grab and go bag for me. I wanted a vanity case and had my eyes on the Chanel one at first. But after thinking more about how I would use it, the MCM definitely is a better choice. The Chanel vanity case is "too loud" for me. I don't see myself using it in 5 years. Not to mention the huge price difference! :smile:

Thanks again, @charlie_c!! Here we are out for our maiden voyage, and a quick peek into what I have inside. I also love that when the bag is fully open, and it is hanging on my hip, nothing falls out. I didn't know what you meant, until today, when I went to pay in Costco. I wish it was a half inch taller so it would fit my key cles standing in edge. My sunnies fit right in top and the micro fiber lining protect the lenses. [emoji173][emoji173][emoji173]

It's just so cute even tho it doesn't fit a lot.

Do you all still like this bag? Any cons you've noticed? I think this bag is so cute and am obsessed!!!
 
Well, I just loved the vanity bag showcased by @pbnjam, @Butterlite, and @charlie_c that I got one too.:smile: I got the silver hardware. Now I'm wondering if I should have gotten the gold hardware. Also, the gold and silver models are slightly different. I'm not sure which model would be more convenient.:confused1:

I ended up exchanging for the gold model. The one I got today is the older version and the silver is the new version. I noticed that the new version does not open wide enough for me due to the zipper placement change, so I opted for the older model and I am soooo happy with this cutie!

Congrats! It’s a great little bag. I still have mine but at the moment it is storing some bag charms. I like the gold hardware more.

Thank you. Oh I bet the bag looks really glam with all the bag charms inside it. I am planning on using it as storage too when and IF I get tired of using it. At this point though, since I just got it, I feel like I'll never get tired of it hehehehe. :biggrin:And I agree that I like the gold better especially on this model and color. Thanks for posting your pictures... they were great enablers!!! They helped me solidify my decision to get the cutie!:graucho::lol:

I wanted to share how my MCM Milla Medium bag is doing after 1.5 years of daily use!
  • Purchased March 2017 from Forzieri - almost 1.5 years ago
  • Daily use, but I'm careful/gentle with it
  • Leather seems very durable - no scratches but a few makeup smudges that seem to wipe off. Bag seems to hold it's shape very well.
  • Bottom of the bag is still perfect except for small wear on the metal feet - I guess that means they are working ;)

What's In My Bag - iPhone 8 (not pictured), 2 zipper cosmetics bags, 2 glasses cases, hefty set of keys, full size billfold, and makeup. You could fit more but this is the most I need. Most days I carry less than this.

What's In My Bag - everything loaded up inside! I loveeeee the compartments - I know where everything is without looking. Note that in the 2nd compartment from the top, the small monogrammed interior pocket is a bit annoying and bellows outward. I never use it - it's too small for my cellphone and I put small things in the middle zipper compartment anyway. The monogram interior pocket is the one problem with this bag (at least the one I own).
