Polène handbags

[lilimcn]

Hi everyone!
Fell in love with Polene Beri
Would love to hear more about wear and tear, I’ve seen pictures of metal feet on other Polene bags being oxidized (I believe that’s the word? they looked chipped/greenish) - how is the metal clasp on Beri holding on?
Also seen some leather peeling on other Polene bags where the leather folds/creases, any feedback like this for Beri?
Much appreciated!

This would be a great color for the Neuf!

Don't you think? I'm very curious to see what the new colors will be. I have also been considering burgundy, but it's out of stock. So while scrolling through their Instagram last night and looking at the burgundy Neuf, I came across this post and then reply from Polene from just 1 week ago indicating they expect some new colors to come out in the following weeks.

I might have made a small mistake with the color of my Neuf, I'm not sure yet. I love the style and I got it taupe, and it's very quiet, elegant and timeless but it's not a color I'm obsessed with. I have the Dix in camel and I admire the color every time I look at it. I wanted this to happen with the Neuf, too. Maybe it will still grow on me, I'm definitely keeping it for now. Maybe cognac or blush or another color that's yet to come out would've been a better choice. I might need a second Neuf in the future - maybe in the mini version.

My Dix in green arrived. I'm so impressed with the shipping. ETA was 21st Oct but it arrived on 19th Oct. I placed my order on 16th Oct. The color is intriguing. It is not that dark and when contrasted with other colors, the green comes through. Pics are shot at night under white indoor light. I'll share pics tmr morning when I retake pics of the bag with natural sunlight. I love the leather grain and it being textured makes this a very trusty travel bag for rain or snow conditions. I inspected my bag for any possible defects but other than some white seams peeking through, the bag is perfect. Great packaging and the dust bag is what everyone says it is. Thick and well made. I'm very satisfied with my first Polene bag and the ordering experience had been smooth. Lucky me! Thank you to my super strong enabler @windnocturne for introducing me to Polene!

Thank you for sharing. It looks gorgeous. Congrats.
The color looks light it might be darker than the emerald green I like so I might not end up ordering it, but it is still a stunning bag.
And you can't go wrong with the Dix; it's unique, edgy and equestrian, all at the same time.

I love emerald green! Actually all greens. You are right that it actually is darker than emerald green. I think under bright natural light, it will photograph much lighter and perhaps more vibrant. We shall see tmr.

You are spot on with your description of the Dix. I love that it can be dressed up or down. The design is just so different from the conventional crescent hobo. Shall bring it to work tmr!

The "Taupe" will grow on you & perhaps the reason being is camel is a warm tone while taupe is a cooler one
& that may be the reason you are not being drawn to it.
The Neuf is a great stylish bag & the color is so chic, JMO

I agree. Taupe is a color that grows on you. It probably doesn’t have a wow effect but it ends up being a very wearable and elegant color.

I already own a Mini Neuf in camel but have also added a Neuf Mini in Taupe to my cart. I’m just waiting to to see if I get something else before ordering.

I think Polene’s neutrals are winning the color game. These palettes are beautiful, sophisticated and versatile enough that they truly match almost every style.

Totally. The Dix is very special. I have it on my list.
This green seems more like a forest green than emerald. Still, a stunning, elegant and modern color for sure.
Let us know how comfortable it is to take to work.

Congratulations on adding this beauty to your collection!

Forest Green is an apt color description. It fits what I carry on a daily basis but my flat card wallet sits suspended in mid-bag due to the crescent base. I understand why some ladies talk about "wasted space" in their reviews of this bag. Changing out to a compact wallet might work better.

Thank you!

I'm so excited for you to receive yours. Hope you like it as much as I do.

I agree. Taupe is a color that grows on you. It probably doesn’t have a wow effect but it ends up being a very wearable and elegant color.

Thank you both for your insight regarding taupe. This color is so intriguing to me as it looks so different under different lighting in all the various pics I had seen. Before the green dix launched, I was deliberating between the mini neuf and beri. Was torn between taupe and chalk. I could not decide and thus abandoned cart.
