Hi everyone! So I just received my ‘new to me’ pm in bougainvillea. I love the color, but the shape of the bag is distorted. Does anyone know if the clemence leather can be ‘trained’ to uncurl and regain its correct shape? Or should I return it, as the shape will not change?
I’ll attach photos

Looks like they've stored it flat, unstuffed and a weight of stuff on top of it.

Do nothing except use.

It'll bounce bank when you carry it and with things inside.

Thank you so much @papertiger! That makes me feel so much better as I adore the color! I think I will also get an insert to help the process of straightening out. Thank you for your enabling too..:biggrin:

Thank you, everyone, for the well wishes.

We have evacuated safely, but are on pins and needles praying for the safety of the first responders and neighbors who decided not to leave. I had our essentials items packed a few days ago. My husband asked if I wanted to take my purses, shoes, and jewelry, but as we were leaving, I found that they were not important and only took my wedding sets. I left everything else. As I'm sitting here, hoping for the best, I have no regrets. Should anything happen, we can always rebuild. We're still together and that's all that matters.

Please start vigilant, and hugs to all.

P.S. I turn to dark humor when I'm stressed, so please excuse any offense I may inadvertently cause as I'm using the internet as an outlet.
 
Why not? This bag looks good on everyone. (the strap was too short for me as a crossbody though, I am 5'10")

Im 6'5"and I use a TPM on many occasions. Mine is Etoupe and came with a very short navy strap. I have the GM in the same color, so I use the longer strap.

Its a great extra pocket. Its perfect for the airport. All essentials are easily accessible and when ready to board, it goes in your carry on.

It holds my phone, keys, card case, tickets and glasses and keeps everything in front of me.

Its probably the bag I grab the most. Its light weight, understated and I usually wear the H toward the back.

I think is awesome for guys.
 
Since buying my Evelyne last year I have never used it in the rain, if it starts raining and I can't avoid it I throw it into a different bag and run to the car - can someone please tell me what happens to the clemence Evelynes in the rain? I think i'm being overly cautious, as its my only luxury bag that I prevent getting wet, and I have Louis Vuitton, Mulberry and Chanel. Advice welcome!
