After having several prada totes/clutches/wallets, I've decided to give its sister brand a try! for a 'younger' look..

Here's the medium (30cm x 22cm) coffer in cammeo :smile:

absolutely love the colour! i was thinking of cipria/mughetto initially, but those shades are kinda light and risk colour transfer easily.. plus i'm not the kind who would baby my bags.. so i had put off the idea of getting a lovely light coloured miu miu for some time. it was until i got news that miu miu discontinued its coffer bags, that i thought i better grab one before they're all oos!

cammeo is a compromise between the shade i love and the amount of effort i have to put in a bag :P

having slight regret though, cos it's in untreated lambskin :X what's more it had been raining consecutively over the chinese new year holidays.. i was so afraid the bag would get darkened water spots from the raindrops!

thinking of sending it to colorwash for transparent coating or waterproofing since there's promotions for uob lady's card holders.

anyone tried it before, how's their service and the result of the protective treatment?

How do you generally tell if a bag is treated or untreated lambskin? Cute bag btw :biggrin:

yea cute! thanks!

iirc, untreated lambskin is the normal, matte type. treated ones are usually the patent, or glazed, or glossy kinds :smile: i might be wrong though!
my bag's leather feels raw so i take it that it's untreated.. :biggrin:

Hi everyone ! I just have a quick question about fixing the flat!
I think a year ago i got a pair of miu miu flat ( gold) and there were bow tie and crystal on top of it ! Recently the whole bow tie came off after 2 wear ! T..T My SA said i can bring it in and fix it , but how much dose it cost? The last time that i sent a high end item off for repair was my gucci watch and they charged me 200 bucks for two screws !! and it took a month to get it back from NJ -____- that could have been replaced by 10 bucks the most at other watch store.

The back hook is missing a metal piece i think only miu miu can fix it, but i don't want to go to miu miu and have them ship it out if it cost too much to fix it!

Help please :S !
Thank you very much :smile:

Hey, I have the same shoes but in different color ^_^. I'm sorry about your bows on the shoe. I think if the whole thing has come off then maybe they just need to be glued back on and that shouldn't cost too much.

Also, some Miu Miu boutiques just have their shoes done by some "specific" local shoe repair shops that also take "public" business. Try asking them if there are any local shoe repair shops they may suggest.
