Yeah... I took it out in anticipation of the arrival of my BOW.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but your BOW Charm and your BOW have the exact same colour wheels, Vert Verone?
Yes! I am thinking of attaching the BOW charm on the BOW... but afraid of colour transfer from the rose extreme to craie... but if it looks cute then YOLO. Lol
OMG, that is such a cute idea! BOW on BOW 🤣. Here's a photo of what it would look like but this one is in Rose Texas / Rouge H. I feel like the Rose Extreme might be too harsh against Craie tbh, but we'll see when you get yours and how it looks. I wish they just made the charms in the exact same colour combinations as the actual bags LOL
Too much of a colour contrast u mean... hahaha.... but over here red against red I feel is too dull.
Oh anyway, can I ask if you removed the plastic on the wheels for your bag? I can't bear to remove the plastic...
Yes, that's a better way of wording what I meant. Too much colour contrast for such a light neutral bag. I think the monochrome aesthetic would be cool, Vert Fizz BOW charm against a Vert Fizz BOW 💚. In your case, I would be worried about colour transfer and it permanently staining the craie epsom from your charm.
No, I didn't remove the plastic off the wheels. I saw someone's RMS wheels in white like mine and they were all black and stained on the bottom, so I got really scared and didn't want that to happen to mine. However, that would probably because they roll their RMS suitcase on the floor, but still scary since mine might pick up dirt or stuff off restaurant tables or what not. Also, just so you know, its not like the regular hardware stickers, its like a thick plastic on the wheels if that makes sense.
Thanks for your inputs. Yup a vert fizz bow charm on a vert fizz bow would be prefect!!!
The plastic on my bow charm is also a thick plastic and I have left it there...
The plastic on your charm will be way more noticeable than an actual BOW. So, if you're fine with it being on the charm, then you'll definitely be fine with it on your bag. Hardly noticeable if you ask me, you really have to look for it to notice it.
Just got mine over the weekend and seriously awesome. Im about 5’4 and it hits just at the perfect spot as a crossbody. I tried on the 25 as well but as crossbody it hits under the boob so not as comfortable. Capacity wise, calvi duo, iPhone, pack of tissue, humongous key fob, ipods and still quite a bit of extra space. At the restaurant it rests comfortably on the lap. I think this will end up to be my favourite H bag.
I recently bought a mini bolide and I absolutely love it! I find it less formal than B, easier to get in and out of than K, more subtle than C, and overall just super stinking cute 😍
For a mini bag it packs quite a bit - today I have an umbrella, calvi, earbuds, lip gloss, keys, transit card, hair tie, and my phone. Everything fits snugly inside without pushing against the leather.
I'm 5'7" and it lands at the waist when I wear it cross body, which is fine with me. I don't shoulder carry bags so I have no opinion there, but the handles are teeny weeny so they won't go over my wrist - hand carry only.
Also, this is the first of my H bags that I have wanted to accessorize. I wear my bags "naked", but I heard my mini bolide calling for a twilly. Who knows, I may even buy a rodeo for her one day!

Thank you!! It’s definitely more roomy than the MK!
Absolutely adorable!! And you are able to fit an umbrella!
Are the straps removable/interchangeable?
The long strap is removable and if you opt for an alternative H strap, you would need one with the small clasps.
Since you also asked for the cons
I posted here that my Evercolor bag started to sag fairly quickly after I purchased it. I also find the zipper somewhat awkward to use if you wear it crossbody. I think an additional zipper (similar to the Louis Vuitton Alma BB) would be an awesome improvement to the design. I still love it. It packs a lot and looks good with many outfits. It's relatively incognito so I wear it when traveling and in settings where I want to dress down, but still look put together. I actually get way more compliments on my mini Bolide than my BKC.
