I got the key chain at a Royal Show last year - but the guys have a website - Room number one is the group that makes them. I think they're called 'freaky monster'.
Very cute! I like that it is a mini bag, but it doesn't look too small and it actually fits a decent amount inside.
hello! i am on the fence between purchasing a mini rockie or the regular rockie bag. I own a rocco as well as the kirsten, however i find the rocco extremely heavy and i have worn it for years so i'm in dire need of a new a.wang bag! I have tried searching for other reviews of the mini rockie, but cannot seem to find any! do you mind if you can post some photos of it on your arm, and a more frontal view of it on as well? I have rebecca minkoff mini crossbody bags, but i need something that is still practical and can fit a makeup bag, wallet, phone, keys, etc.
I am also pretty petite (5'2", 103 lbs), I would love your help!

Sorry, jumping in here...I'm 5'1" and about 100 lbs, love my Rockie. I don't find it heavy as a bag, but obviously depends on what you carry. I have my wallet, sunglasses, hand cream, very small makeup bag, small credit card holder, inhaler, iPhone and odd bits and still have some room to spare. Not carrying any other electronics so that could be a consideration for you. I haven't had the opportunity to try a mini Rockie but I'm very happy with the regular. The AW site says the mini is 45% smaller than the regular Rockie, but I've found the measurements on their site to vary a lot even with the same bag in different colours.
BTW I do have a Rocco which I haven't used yet but the Rockie is much smaller. Three really crappy pics attached, just from my phone in the evening. Hope this helps!

I got the mini Rockie in black and nickel last month, and I HOPING that it gets a tad saggy. As it is, it's very structured and stiff and feels almost awkward when worn crossbody/on the shoulder (bumps against the body as it moves). Once it has more give, I think it'll be more comfortable to carry. I think the compact size and sturdy leather will prevent it from getting saggy to the point of losing its cute shape like the Rockie and Rocco tend to do.
