Zhoe Legend in Dark Amethyst Verona (from the newest batch released in February 2018) with silver hardware and silver lining. Customised to add a zipper closure to the main compartment, strap length unchanged. Dark Amethyst is a warm purple (with reddish vs. blue undertones), and reminds me of Balenciaga's Raisin from FW 2009. Third pic is the most colour-accurate on my screens, and also shows the leather softening up a bit already after a full day using the bag.

Penelope in Blue Iris Verona (from the newest batch released in February 2018) with silver hardware and silver lining. No customisations. Shown with the Dark Amethyst Zhoe Legend, with one comparison that also has my Penelope Midi thrown in (I'm 99.9% sure this leather is Dark Blue Verona rather than Dark Blue Trinity). Blue Iris is a lovely medium dusty blue with some purple undertones, a pretty unique colour/tone! It's hard to capture the colour more accurately as the purple undertone doesn't always show up. The fourth pic, taken under fluorescent lighting only, is the closest to colour-accurate that I was able to get (although Dark Amethyst is better captured with the other pics). The MM blog's swatch pic is fairly accurate too, if that helps anyone considering this leather.
