Thank you guys so much! Extremely helpful. I have my eyes on a TPM but unsure what color as there seem to be a wide range of colors. I am also 5ft not sure if it would be too long?

I would take a look at this review in feather factor, she is 5’1” and I think she looks great!

As for color choice, I honestly think this is a bag where every color looks good! I have not seen a color I don’t like on the TPM.
 
Hi all. I bought an Evelyne from the boutique in early March, before the lockdown. Been trying it on at home this whole time haha. I noticed tonight the clasps on the strap do not swivel/rotate. Are they supposed to?
 
Whew, they do turn, but I really have to work it. Are they going to loosen up at some point? They don’t turn unless I make it a point to turn them.

It seems like they should be able to swivel freely you know? To make wearing the bag more natural.

I have the same problem! As I get older I’m more sensitive to weight plus I walk quite a bit daily so my bag becomes increasingly heavier with each passing block - especially during hot humid months. I’ve been using the wide shoulder strap from Pop &Suki for the last 18 months on all my Evelynes. I alternate between the wide shoulder (which is comparable to the 85 sized strap) for crossbody or the shorter wide shoulder strap for shoulder carry. The only drawback is the color selection for the wide straps: creme/white w ghw, pistachio (light green) w shw, or red w ghw. The creme and pistachio are pebbled leather so they match a bit to the clemence grain. The straps are lightweight and very comfortable. Also did I mention they’re about $35USD. I’ve been told that the strap coordinates well with the bag; even my SA asked me about it. I’ve got the 25/85 sangle cavale as well but the clasp tends to rotate when I move so it’s rather uncomfortable. Btw, I’m 5’1” and this strap hits me at the right place.
