I can't make it to a HB store, closest one is about 2hrs away and I'm on modified bedrest the rest of my pregnancy so I can't be out and about that long. I'm considering ordering a 2nd one and shipping the 1st one back with the 2nd invoice. Feels a little sneaky to do that though, but it is still perfectly wrapped up in brand new condition. Even though it's a tough bag to get into I do love the size and wide strap, just wish it wasn't a dull green.

How are you liking the large Houston? Is it fairly usable even with the tight opening? Were you able to get the coloring you wanted? I'm considering getting it..

I haven't taken it out anywhere yet but have played around with it at home. It's bigger than I thought it would be but I do really like it. My petrol Gothams are definitely a lot easier to get into but it doesn't bug me like I thought it would.
I called CS last week and explained how I really didn't like the color but couldn't make the trip to a boutique to exchange. They were amazing and shipped me a new one once they received notification the 1st one was dropped off at UPS. I even received the new one the very next day. The colors on the 2nd one are so much nicer but still not exactly what I wanted, wish there was more purple and blue like my wallet. I can't be too picky though since I can't pick out in person and I got it at a little over 50% off.

I was just comparing last year's hologram market tote to this year's. Does the leather seem thinner than last year's to anyone else? Not sure if it's just this specific tote, or maybe I'm crazy? lol
 
How crazy would it be to order a 2nd market tote? The one I have now is mostly purple and green but I was hoping for more of a purple/teal like my mercer and crossbody clutch. No stores around me carry it to pick out one in person.

Not crazy! Although, maybe you can give a few stores a call and ask them to describe or send pics of what they have. I'm not sure if coach SAs do this, but if you like what you see, you might be able to have it sent to you. That way, you have a little more control over what arrives at your doorstep. Just a thought.
 
Which one should I keep? I tend to gravitate towards colors like the one on the right, but the colors on the various pieces on the left look like they go better together. The colors on the bag looks a little washed out in my photos though.
