you know how against Lizzy i was, well, I LOVE her, in fact, just bought a second one. very easy to use, the pockets on this bag are deceptively large and very useful. I also have the katherine wallet in 2 colors now. the neon pink id beautiful and really adds a nice pop to so many MZW bedford colors. go for it. the pink would work well with your chocolate baby jane.

Haha not helping me resist.
I really love Hayley so I keep telling myself there is no room in my life for the Lizzy buttttt it's so tempting...,
What color did you get the Lizzy in? I can't decide if I love the mahogany.
I was kind of eh on mahogany until I saw it IRL. It's a lovely rich shade and the rose gold complements it well.
I have looked at your modeling shots of Hayley, it looks so nice on you. When I saw it in person last week at store it looked so huge...really a lot bigger than Lizzy...do you think it just appeared huge because it was paper stuffed (and Cherry)?
Have 2 with Rose Gold...agree...love hardware...don't have Mahogany..but would if I could...really like color.
I have Lizzy in Gunmetal and kingsport grey. it is a bag I want in neutrals, go for my pops of color in larger bags. Hayley is so much bigger than Kizzy, no comparison at all. totally different bags. think lizzy, smaller, almost camera size bag, harley is a real purse, larger, holds a lot, great for loading up.
I am silver HDW but it won't stop me from getting aug in a color I love with gold. I LOVE the rose gold on mahogany and kingsport grey.
The Hayley is a big bag (according to the listed dimensions it's similar size to the Jane), but it slouches so nicely when not fully loaded. The bag stuffed with their filling paper probably made it look pretty stiff, but without it the bag forms to the body really nicely. I can carry it crossbody and forget it's even there since it lays so nicely against the body and is so light. Since it's big it still gives me the room to throw in extra stuff when I need to--- like a water bottle or two, even my smaller dslr camera fits (tightly), hats for the kids. I've been so happy with it and taken it so many places. It's in a ton of our traveling pictures since I'm always wearing it.
For the past few weeks I've been carrying the Belle and that is definitely a large bag. I've loving it too though. It's big, but light, can carry it on my shoulder or cross body. I've been carry on my shoulder too which is not the norm for me since I love hands free bags. It's just been so comfortable that I haven't needed to use the cross body on it. I'm still not sure I can travel with it or take it to Disney, but I might give it a shot the next time we go.
Jane is 13" l x 5" w x 12" h, 11" handle drop
Hayley is 14" l x 4" w x 11" h, 8.5" handle drop
Belle 14.5" l x 7" w x 13" h, 9.5" handle drop
Yep, sale goggles! I have gotten much better about this, but I have been really bad this week.
And now the Kingsport Gray City Tote seems to be calling my name. Argh. I know people have posted about the City Tote but I can't go down the rabbit hole of searching for previous posts, so for those who have it, do you love it? Why or why not? And are those thin straps comfortable even when you have a lot in the bag? How much does the bag weigh empty? Thanks!
I have the KG city tote and love it! It's a fantastic tote that holds a ton but didn't feel too big. I love the straps as thin straps don't feel too uncomfortable for me and I like that they don't slide off my shoulder like all the other MZW straps. It's great for the times when I'm wearing a winter coat because it sits on my shoulder well. Zip and magnet closure, and two magnet pockets on the ends and a bigger zippered pocket on one side. But if you have the bag kinda full, it's a bit more difficult getting things out of the end magnet pockets. The bag is also light and comfy. And the color is a perfect neutral!
I use it for work when I have to carry documents or a laptop. Lately I've been using my Belle for work but the handles slip on me a lot so once it gets cooler and I start wearing coats and jackets I'll probably go back to the city tote.
Then if you have Gunmetal Lizzy now, don't forget to try Gunmetal Britt's shoulder strap on it....love Lizzy like that.,.feels like a totally different bag!
Thanks for all the opinions! My main concern is the thin straps, so it is helpful to see all the different thoughts on it. I would need to load it up, and I have a feeling those straps would bug me. I do really like that it has the zip top closure though, which so many totes don't. Anyway, I think I may hold out for the Belle in a good color (it is coming out in one of the purples this fall, right?).
I don't want to enable you but I do love the neon pink leather so far, even in my bulky Christoff.
