Hi, thank you for the responses.. I do not think that the color Bronze is too light for autumn as it is a taupe, even darker than Hermes etoupe, but it has a slight sheen.. It is not screaming metallic, but it is very subtle..I guess just because it is labeled "metallic" or marketed as metallic, it kind of threw me off, because I myself am not a metallic person, and i do not own any metallic bags..I also was curious to how the buffalo leather wears..I will say that the bag is lightweight, a plus for Chloe bags.
