Alas, I don’t own a MacBook 13” so I’m unable to help but I’m sure others will chime in
I had a 35 I thought would use as a work bag, but it was too small once the laptop is in there. The opening is the wrong shape. A garden party is a far more useful work bag.Yes for sure the 35 would be better
Oh wow so it doesn't zip up? It doesn't zip up in the 31. Yes the garden party looks huge.
Late to the party, but just gorgeous! Congrats- a Bolide in box is a treasure
And late on this as well! Gorgeous and enjoy
I’m so excited to contribute to this thread! Took a photo at night (after toddler bed time) so the color may be a little off.
I’m so giddy to receive my Bolide Verso 31 Rose Sakura / Nata Taurillon Clemence delivered today all the way from Japan
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@PrayersandPurses even though you’ve shown me that it would fit a MacBook 13, I don’t think I’ll be using this as a work bag like I had planned earlier she’s too precious! (Edit: I’m the same person as speckle! I created a new account under the US time zone which is where I live now! I was using my old Australian account and the time zones on time stamps of posts were very confusing lol)
I promised my DH I would pack it back up and open it at Christmas …
Lastly I promised myself I would make the most use of this bag (maximizing cost per wear) and won’t be getting another until I get offered a B30 from a boutique (I just started a H relationship so I’m prepared to wait a while)
So off I go doing research on how to look after this precious beauty while using it daily (or almost!) - please help if you have any suggestions!!

Hello! Maybe an odd request but if anyone has a noir evercolor bolide, would you mind sharing a few pictures? DM is fine! My SA said they would find one for me in the size 25 with GHW! I've been trying to find pictures to hold me until it finally comes in but can't find pictures to save my life. TIA 
Congratulations @nycsince2013 she's so beautiful. Wear her in good health and happiness
I too think she is too beautiful to carry a laptop around lol.
The Bolide 31 was my first purchase too. Then I was offered a Birkin 30. I am extremely grateful to have the Birkin, but I prefer the Bolide for my lifestyle. Always loved top handle bags, and it has a strap.

Thank you! I’m looking forward to have her as my sidekick in the years to come. ❤️ I’m so amazed by the craftsmanship and even though I had it authenticated just in case (came back certified authentic!), I could tell that it was really really well made. Probably the best quality product I own by far. I’ve been playing around with organizing SLGs inside the bag and made a minimalistic list of what I will carry everyday in it. ❤️ ❤️
I think I could zip it, but it was wedged in there and it was hard to access other items.
Thanks for this post! I have been hesitating because I couldn't tell if a laptop would fit in the Bolide 35 zipped. I am hoping kind of tilted, it'll zip. I want to get it for an understated work bag for when I'm presenting. I love the place where the monogram goes to inscribe my company logo on it. All I carry is my MacBook, a Remarkable, charger, cords, and my iphone. Do you think it would work for that?
Not in my experience. You want your bag to be easy to use. Why not a garden party?
Interesting Bolide design
