It's fantastically good. It's a colour that I commonly wear. More of burgundy with a touch of raspberry/purple. I do love it.

So pleased for you!

View attachment 4326611 View attachment 4326612 View attachment 4326613 View attachment 4326614 Is there a way to tell the color name of a Natasha? I'm having a heck of a time taking an accurate photo. It's sort of a taupe. This slapdash car photo is the best representation, I think. It leans a touch more brown than gray, especially in fluorescent light. It photographs generally more gray.

I agree with "Root Beer" colour.

Does anyone own this bag? It's the Recruit Nomad saddle bag, in the larger of the two sizes (11" x 9"). And it's 40% off on the MJ site.

It looks to me a bit like the old Preppy Natasha bags from 6 or 7 years ago, except the strap is wider. And there's no pocket below the flap. And the flap comes all the way down to the bottom of the bag. And there's a zipper on the front of the flap. (Other than that, they're identical, LOL!)

But my real concern is with weight. I love my Preppy Natasha, because the leather is soft & smooshy & it weighs very little. Any thoughts about whether the Recruit Nomad would be heavier?

My new-to-me (previously loved by another MJ fan) Marc Jacobs bag arrives tomorrow! So excited! Rose Gold, which I adore. Some would think I'm silly to be so excited about a purse, but I figure you guys will understand the feeling. Will post a pic tomorrow.

What is the name of the handbag? I can't wait until you get it! I did it again myself and bought my 4th PTTM this week. Now I have four - Newsprint, Nude, Raspberry, and in the mail and on her way to me is a sort of brown colour - will know the exact colour when she arrive. JOY! ! I share this love with you.

Congrats on your new bag @netter! Great that you've found a bag you love enough to get it in four colors! It's a crossbody bag. The Q Percy.

Oh, the Q Percy! I love those handbags. The perfect little side handbag for sure.

Here is the seller's pic... And her comment: Color is a pink rose gold NOT gold.

I love the unique shade of gold - deep and rich. This handbag will go with anything. I love how the white background glows with the rose gold at the shoulder strap areas.

When I get my next PTTM in the mail I think I will TRY to take a photo of all of my MJ handbags together.

I look forward to seeing that pic!

My MJ collection contains a lot of the same kind of handbags in different colours. But - they are in my wardrobe colour pallet.

 

[JenJBS]

It arrived! So pretty! Neither the seller's pic or mine totally capture what a beautiful rose gold color it is.

 

[netter]

It looks like a comfortable strap with that extra padding added. Marc Jacobs handbags forever!
Here is a rose gold pouch that would go with your handbag.

Thanks for the link to the pouch @netter . I wish the lighting didn't make the purse look so orange in that pic I posted. It really is a lovely rose gold.
