I'm wondering the same - I'm 5'9"/size 8 and lean toward smaller bags. I know the TPM will carry my essentials - but will it look ridiculous on my size? So many of the modeling shots are petite women and it looks great on them... I won't get to an H store until August to try them on - which is fine since I'm firmly on ban island until then.

Any taller tPF'ers own an Evelyne TPM that wants to show off a few mod shots? TIA :tup:

I did but I don’t have a body shot. I sold mine because I didn’t reach for it that often.

I’m 6ft and the TPM was too short crossbody so it looked ridiculous on my frame. I will look to see if I kept the mod shot I sent to my sister (who agreed - not good on my frame.) I had to send it back - which killed me because it was a gorgeous pink. But! Patience paid off - snagged a PM Magnolia [emoji5]

Of course!! I even put my Valentino crossbody strap on and pondered keeping it anyway. But on 6ft size 10, it just didn’t look right to me. The PM is as small as I can go in the evelyne. I can do smaller sizes in other style bags. But that one didn’t work for me personally [emoji5]

I’ve been checking like a fiend lol. I wanted the magnolia or rose pourpre. But I’ve never seen or heard of a RP Evie. I did hear the magnolia ones might be out there so I just kept stalking the website. It popped up during a meeting and I nearly yelled out loud on my conference call. [emoji5][emoji5][emoji322]

I just had to share this with you all....
I was browsing H.com during lunch when I saw this and couldn’t believe my eyes. I’ve only seen one other Evelyn with GHW. It was several years ago and it was a purple Epsom PM. I couldn’t get my credit card out fast enough.

Presenting miss Goldie PM with GHW:

I wonder if H will begin producing more with GHW?

Wow! :loveeyes: I'm not a GHW person, but this is gorgeous! Very nice! Congrats!

Exactly like you, I purchased noir sellier in the hunter leather last August. I had it ready to go maybe a month or two ago, but the weather looked inclement so I chickened out. :hrmm:

I've been meaning to post about twillys or silks on Evelynes. Not sure if this has been mentioned before but wanted to share my experience. This is probably common sense for many of you, but not dumb-dumb me. :-s I tied a twilly (and gavroche) on the ring on the bag where the strap attaches to and didn't realize until it was too late that the snap hook cut into the silk (same w/ gavroche). :sad: Lesson learned for me. So, I now tie any silks or charms to the ring on the strap that the hook is attached to instead.

Aww Sorry to hear about the cut in your Twilly :crybaby:

Now you have more of a reason to get a new twilly? Remember Twillies don't count toward our Quotas :graucho:
