My little Moynat family, including the charm my lovely Paris SA gave me for Josephine

View attachment 4584870

You have such an attractive Moynat family! I love the charm on your Josephine. That was really thoughtful of your SA! Do you have a 'next' bag already in mind? I am torn. I 'think' this is my list in order of 'want' (Ha!) -
Gaby PM or Gabrielle PM in blue (can't wait to see what new blue is coming if Cobalt isn't still available)
Josephine
Limousine PM

I haven't added pictures in ages to tPF (except for yesterday). I know how much the pictures helped me though and will add a few here too! I will also share the size of my Gaby BB in comparison to my K28 and K25 because that was also a big question that I had before purchasing, especially not having Moynat in my country. Also a picture of my most beloved Chico Macaron!

Lastly, here are the size comparisons - K28, K25, and Gaby BB (22 cm). And my beloved and cherished Chico! Isn't he the sweetest!?!

Thank you! A black BB Gaby will be perfect! I got the chance to see one and it is so pretty. How fun to be remodeling your house - that is exciting! I know first hand how expensive it is and how expensive new furniture costs, but it is so worthwhile when completed. As much as I love bags and scarves, having a beautiful home is even more pleasing. Enjoy picking all your new furnishings. Your little Gaby BB will be waiting for you when you are ready! And thank you again, so, so much. Your information and pictures are truly what made me take my latest journey to Paris!

We bought our house from a 95 year old couple who hadn’t done a thing since the 1960’s. Shag carpet in the kitchen, 1960’s appliances and features. 1960’s funky Paneling! We raised the ceiling from 8 feet to 14 (18’ in places), yanked up carpet, knocked down walls and took away rooms to make it open concept. We even replaced a long, concrete, circular drive. Everything in the house was touched down to the studs and replaced, except for the master bedroom bathroom. That’s our project right now. Ugh!
And I am finally able to get my dream furniture in some rooms. Yes, I agree. My Gaby will be waiting for me after we’re done. It’s my 20th anniversary in a few months, anyway. Hahaha! Little does my hubby know, a Gaby is what I want.

Thank you for the comparisons. The Gaby bb looks so small, but I’ve seen in other photos on the thread, it hold quite a bit because it is kind of wide.
Your bag charms are adorable! Chico is the sweetest.

How special your home sounds! I love that you purchased from a 95 year old couple - how special is that! Good karma, right! Woo, hoo on your upcoming 20th anniversary! That is such an achievement in this insane world we live in. We are just a year behind you and your DH and I agree, that will make a perfect gift for you. I always ask my DH if he needs an updated list of things I would love to have and he always says, "Why? I hear about them everyday!!" ha!!!!

Regarding the size of the Gaby BB, it truly is a fantastic size in my humble opinion. I was initially concerned it would look too petite, but it fits everything I carry and I think has about the same capacity as my K25. I love that it looks good on the arm, on the shoulder, or cross body. I am truly smitten with her! You are right, it is wide and deep, especially if you unbutton the sides. When I tried the Gaby PM as cross body it definitely didn't look as nice (on me) as the little BB worn that way, but I still love that bag as well! I can't remember the name of the leather the Gaby PM (in the electric blue color I posted above) is called, but it was visually amazing. We get so much rain where I live that this leather (it resembles a suede/leather mix, but is something more special than my wording) would terrify me. Love the color though!

Thank you . I’m pretty content right now bag wise. I love the look of the Rejane, always have, but I’m more of a casual slouchy bag person so not sure I’d get one. However if funds were unlimited then that would be on my list! If a larger Josephine (but not as big as the 38cm one) were to become available I’d be very very tempted especially in a neutral colour or colours. What I am planning to get at some point though are some slgs. A coin purse first probably because I don’t have one. I love the envelope shaped card holder and passport holder so maybe one of those and I love your macaron charm! So when there is a cute one again (this seasons didn’t appeal that much) then I’d be very tempted!

Thank you so much for posting these! It’s great to see all the bags being worn and a size comparison. They all look great on you!

Thank you as well, Tonimichelle! I think the Rejane is so pretty too. The green I tried in my picture above went so well with my 'scarf of the day' that I was so tempted and yes, if funds were unlimited I would have happily taken her too!!! I love the ease of opening the Gaby and the Josephine in comparison to the Rejane though. I almost purchased the envelope passport holder, but ended up with a Tarmac from H. I have wanted one for ages and the color Vert Verone was too pretty to pass up. I agree though, the SLGs are fantastic by Moynat and my DH was extremely tempted! Next time! Let us hope they introduce some really cute new Macaron designs for SS!

Thanks so much for posting these pictures! ❤️ They’re extremely helpful!

Would you say the size of the Gaby PM is closer to a Kelly 28 in size? Thanks again!!

You are very welcome, Galex! So happy they were able to be of help. I definitely feel the Gaby PM is closest in size to the K28. I have a GP PM and the Gaby MM (ca.32cm) felt more in line with the Garden Party PM (30cm) size to me. I LOVE the Gaby PM!!! Please let us know if you bring one home!!!

Ah I can relate! I was debating the Moynat passport holder but went with an H calvi as a card holder as I’d been thinking about that on and off for ages. Still hankering after the design of the passport holder though. I should have bought a Bastia for coins and then I could have justified the passport holder for cards from Moynat. Now I still want that and an occasional coin purse too! Moynat coin purse next for sure!

I have nothing to contribute other than the rejane is on my possible wishlist for next year. I’ve stopped by the Paris store the last few times I’ve been to Paris and I’m really impressed with their customer service and how welcoming they are. They don’t make me feel unwelcome when asking questions about the rejane and leathers.

I am torn between the mini and PM but when I make it back to Paris next year I’ll see where my heart leads me

Great choice! Rejane is a beauty. I personally prefer the PM because of the structured style, which makes the mini too small for my needs. But best to try on and bask in the kindness of the Paris maison staff!
