OMG love the smaller size! I've admired the Loop forever, but felt it was way too big for me. Thank you for sharing this - and FWIW I love the Dusty Rose on you!
I was told that this was Desert Rose and that the darker rose is Dusty Rose. I asked twice because I thought that it was the other way around by looking at the two Rose colors together. This is a pretty color. I wish I'd taken a photo of both the roses together.......I always think of these things too late.....

*ETA this is "Desert" Rose according to diane278, my mistake!

I found it confusing at the boutique. I know it doesn't sound as exotic but I would have named them 'light rose' and 'dark rose'. I like things simple.....and easy to understand! :confused1:

Finding myself a sometimes inept lover of the English language, I think 'dusty' and 'desert' should be one and the same? Tomas, what you are doing? How about 'dry' rose? LOL. Oh wait - what's Italian for "Dry"?

I like the smaller size and it looks really good on you too!
Thank you! I think it's a very practical size. I currently use my NLG cervo loop (big) constantly. But I do think this smaller size would be a great addition. I'd go for another NLG bag but I'm pretty sure I'd violate some statute of limitations on how many I should own. :amazed:
 
That's truly lovely :heart:. I'll have to delve a little further into his work!
Being from the northwest we also have a love of First Nations artwork. The first two below are Bill Reid, the third Don Yeomans and the fourth Drew Atkins. Please excuse the poor pic quality, I just snapped them with my iphone, we're still trying to figure out where to hang everything in the new house...

Ooooo, I love these! Do you have a spirit animal, muchstuff? Mine is the Crow.
 
Diane, thanks for the modeling pic. I love the smaller one. I have a large Barolo I rarely use....it's too big for me. I love the denim but I'm not sure how much I'd use that color......wish it came in a nutty brown.
 
What a coincidence....
I have just received this one
I never thought of getting one brand new exactly because i was worried it would be too big, so i was always swinging towards baseball, but when i saw this one in my fave consignment at around 30% of its cost in descent condition i decided to give it a try. And probably because it's already broken in it feels just right...
And a lil souvenir i have just received from a friend who got it for me at the Eiffel's Tower :flowers:
