Which color combo should I pre-order for my first MG bucket bag: Rosa/rosa, Cammello/rosa, Black/flamma, or Black/gold? I'm drawn to the Rosa, but I'm worried that it might be high maintenance. Any input would be greatly appreciated! :)

That is a tough question! Those are all amazing combos. One thing I will say about the metallic interiors in the bucket style is that they don't always reflect as well since they face inward, make sense? They reflect the darkness of the interior rather than the light.

The Black/Flamma will provide the greatest color pop given the options you are looking at. The Rosa isn't a lot of maintenance, though the corners on ALL of the bags will show wear. It's just the nature of the shape.
 
I would choose the cammello/rosa.

The veg. tanned leather gets more and more beautiful while aging and the rosa inside is such a lovely detail.
Rosa/rosa is not my favorite if it is the first bucket because to me it is not that versatile. For me the cammello is timeless. Also is the black/flamma but as already said it was the patina of the cammello what made the decision.
 
They are all really lovely! I guess it depends on what you prefer-do you like a bag that has a patina and changes with age, or do you prefer a softer, more luxe leather? I personally think the rosa is a real beauty, but the black/flamma and cammello/rosa are pretty amazing too!
 
I bought both the Cammello/Rosa and the Black/Flamma, but ended up returning the Black/Flamma because I felt the casual shape of the bag looked better in Cammello/Rosa. It's not really a bag I would carry to work or with a super dressy outfit—I like it more as a weekend bag. Just something to think about!
 
Thank you so much for your replies!!! I pre-ordered the regular/large bucket in rosa/rosa from PS Dept. Supposed to ship in Aug.---I can't wait!!! ❤️
