Just a small tip/info for those struggling between sizes 18 and 22 ... 18 is a really small bag but for this type of bag I think it's a better choice than 22 ... what I don't like about 22 is the length of the handle which is a little too long (16 cm) to carry at the crook of the arm and due to the size of the base which makes it look bulky...these are the reasons why I chose size 18
omg I LOVE the colour and the tressage picos.. swoon!
Nice! Do you actually use the glove clip for gloves? I always though it'd be nice to hold a scarf... but maybe I'm crazy
@krissypoo @suziedepingu Thanks to you guys I just watched the Mel in Melbourne video on the new 7RP organizer too... I also liked that the organizer tapers inward, but at the end of the video it looked likt it was too structured... like it'd make corner divots into the leather by being so solid inside the bag. I know a few people have mentioned the 7RPs doing this to Bs... maybe if you just didn't fill it with much stuff it'd provide nice structure at the bottom corners and not mess with the bag higher up?
It’s handy for gloves but also for masks !

Hello all,
I got an offer for picotin 18 ostrich Rose Tyrien. Currently I have 1 epsom and 1 in clemence.
I am not too fond of the epsom picotin since I like the slouchy look on the clemence leather. Is ostrich not as stiff as epsom? Would it be slouchy similar to clemence ?
Thank you for your advise !

I reached out to my SA looking for a picotin 18 in a light color (craie, beton, etc.) and she said there’s a waiting list and the waiting list is full!!
I can’t even get a picotin, or even get on a waiting list for one?! Are these that hard to find?

It shouldn’t be THAT hard. My SA is always trying to talk me into buying one from the stock room. Which country are you in?
May I ask what store? I'm in CA too and while my store doesn't have what I'm looking for in stock but I've never had problems asking to see ones on the floor or from the stockroom... they always seem to have "unclaimed" bags like @acrowcounted said.
