Fellow Poleners,

Please, help me decide. I sold my Un Nano in Chalk because I have a Toy Loulou that is virtually the same color and style so I wasn’t getting any use out of the Un Nano.
But now I need a bag in Chalk, which is my favorite Polene color.

I was set on getting another Neuf Mini in Chalk (I have one in Camel) but I’m now tempted to get a Dix, since I don’t have that style. Also, the textured leather seems like a good option for the color Chalk in terms of durability, which is one of the things I loved about the Un Nano.

In your opinion, how does the Neuf Mini compare to the Dix and which one would you get in this color?

Thanks, darlings. Always appreciate your valuable feedback.

Well I have the neuf mini in Chalk and I love it so much haha. So my vote goes to Neuf Mini. Especially also because Polene’s textured leather is my least favorite and the mini neuf is in pebbled.

IMO it goes down to your style? Dix is like cooler and easy, and Neuf Mini IMO is very dressy.

Thank you. The Neuf Mini is my favorite Polene bag so I’m with you.
I just feel like I don’t want to have two of the same style if I can have more variety.

I actually love the textured leather. It’s so easy and durable. Especially in lighter colors.

I’m also interested in getting an Un Mini. I don’t have many chain bags and would love to add one to my collection. I don’t like the suede top so I would get it all in textured leather.

Honestly, if you like the textured leather because as you say it is easy & durable, I would go with
the Un Mini.
I happen to have the regular size Neuf in Chalk & Taupe. The colors are diversified enough that
I don't mind have the same bag in 2 colors & I actually prefer the pebble leather over the textured
leather.
I also like that the Polene brand stamp on the Neuf is discreetly placed on the side of the bag
not front & center..
I can't imagine what you would think with the several Kelly bags I own in sizes 32/35 in
multiple colors & exotic skins.. LOL

Oh I get you. I have and have had repeats many times before. When I love a bag that much, I will try to have at least 2 colors, so I’m with you.

I was just curious to see if maybe the Dix was a good option for chalk, since it’s durable and I don’t currently have that style.

But still, I love the Neuf Mini so much, I want it in so many colors. I’m still debating which one to get next.

Ahaha I’m thinking too long about getting the dix textured black, now it’s on PO for late April…How do you like your Dix?

I made an order in December for delivery in February and it came second week of January. But there's no guarantee.
I like it very much! It fits everything I need everyday and it's a very comfortable crossbody. I use it while traveling and it seems very secure. The grained leather is also quite sturdy, I have no issues carrying it on trains etc.

I’ve been waiting for a while for Polene to offer the Umi in beige, but I finally gave up on this out-of-stock color and ordered it in chalk just now, inspired by @ann23 who has that exact bag and modeled it so well, and also by @WillWordForBags who loves chalk! It will be my first chalk Polene!

Yes! Chalk is queen. You did good.
Can’t wait to see it on you.
I think I’m about 90% sure I’m ordering the Dix in Chalk. I have a feeling I am going to LOVE this style so more than I anticipate. :biggrin:
