Thank you. I didn’t post but I’m looking for a picture with the TPM

I returned it, but I had a TPM and it was too short for me crossbody. I am 5'10". It was so hard to get and then when I got it I immediately knew it was too short (and too small) for me. For reference I am using a Coach swingpack or Longchamp Le Pliage Neo Nylon crossbody when I want something that holds just a few items. I think the PM size is perfect for my height but it is definitely not as compact as a TPM.

I wanted to share about a couple of straps I purchased on Etsy. I've been wearing my Evelyne GM IIIs (Black and Gold, pictured below) cross-body on almost the shortest option for the strap, but I wanted the option of wearing it as a shoulder bag too (without using a twilly or some other method). I was contemplating getting the straps shortened so that it worked cross-body on almost the longest setting and as a shoulder bag on the shortest, but was uncomfortable with changing the original strap just in case I ever decided to let go of one of the bags.

I found a seller on Etsy (https://www.etsy.com/listing/747438596/2-5cm-everlyne-amazon-shoulder-bag-strap) that had what looked like perfect matches for Hermes colors. I custom ordered two straps that give me the length adjustment I want. They were only $50 each, shipped, and arrived in 3 weeks. And they're perfect! They're practically indistinguishable from the original Hermes straps. So, if anyone is looking to do the same, I highly recommend this shop.

I must confess, when I first saw Evelyne 29, I wasn't the biggest fan. I thought the strap was too thick and dinged the bag for non leather straps. I kept my eyes laser focused on other bags, BCKs. But as the years went on, I eventually became that person who needed an Evelyne. For the days when I wanted to keep it super casual, throw on a hoody, jeans w/sneakers and run errands.

This week, I had to make an emergency work trip to Portland. The trip wasn't fancy, it was doc review, it was flying into chaos with covid, BLM protests, and DHS presence. Since we were going to a third party office who recalled tons of boxes from the warehouse for our review, I thought about bringing B35 or B30, but then I thought I'd cry if it got dirty, or worse, my hand sanitizers exploded or dripped on the purse. I really needed a bag to just get down and dirty. Evelyne stepped up to the bat and knocked it out of the park. Evelyne stayed by my side during flight so that it didn't touch the floor of the plane. Evelyne helped me stay touch-less as much as I can.

I am so sorry Evelyne for not being your fan any sooner. I heart you from the bottom of my heart.

If you look on the US website right now you can see a bunch of colors for TPM. Most are gone already. I see a bright red, white, bleu eletrique, and a dark green that I haven't seen before (among other colors). I don't usually look on Friday because they never post anything. Looks like noir, etain, red, bleu encre (?) have gold hardware but I can't be sure because the page is gone already when you click on it.

Thank you so much :flowers: I checked the US Site and saw the color. I was just hoping and asking because I love bright colors with different colored straps and maybe someone knows if there are some of these editions coming again but it doesn't look like so:sad:
If anybody else knows more about that and what's coming I would be happy for your information :flowers:
