I need to go shopping with you!!! I may have mentioned that before.
I'm not sure if we should let @RuedeNesle tag along. She may just faint along our shopping trip. :biggrin: Or she may get distracted by anything and everything red!

I have to be a little carful, my new line-manager's favourite colour besides black or white is RED. Last week she practically the scarlet woman. I picked my briefcase out before I even knew her but now I'm gonna look like a deliberate mini-me :panic:
 
Between you and @Narnanz , I NEED a red briefcase!
I wonder if I can find a mini version just as red and sexy!


Mark Cross has a beautiful Rear Window, it's expensive but I think they are doing a 10% off on 24S


The one with the 'window' is less expensive called Open the Window, slightly softer, and I think even smaller.

I have just googled some, and these popped up. I think these are gorgeous, but since I have your briefcase in my mind, nothing quite compares!
It's the combination of the rectangular flat shape , the amazing red, the smoothness of the leather, the diminutive top handle, and the touch of hardware bling that makes it so sexy imo.
I would like that in a mini version please!
I once had a Mark Cross Uptown in blue and black(for some reason I was loving blue/ black combo at the time) due to the above reasons, but it was very heavy for its size, and I fell out of love with the blue. Plus it was a vertical rectangle, not east west, so I sold it.

I do love this one, but I know it's too heavy for me.2022-071622_.jpg

Gorgeous!

But I agree, firstly the weight, it need s to be carry-able, and there is something special and sexy about polished red box leather. I first saw an H vintage Box leather Rouge Vif. Kelly through a traditional auction house, it fetched min 4 x the price of black box and red grained leather bags.

I was offered a black Box Sac Depeche ghw a few years ago (PO) I only declined because it was the larger size. I think I prefer red too because it both says 'business' and 'woman' very loudly without any further explanation.
 
It actually is a pretty under the radar bag. People know birkins and kellys, Chanel and LV totes, but this could be one of any number of brands if you’re not that familiar with the plume. I’ve never had anyone give it a second glance when I’ve brought it to meetings.

I'd give it a second glance!!!! :D

When I bought my first Plume 32 in 2014, I had to choose between Swift Bambou, Swift Capucine (orange-red/red-orange) Alligator Chocolate (I have a Chocolate Plume and Bolide already) or Alligator Sanguine (deep peach). I didn't realise that they'd keep Bambou around for a while, and TBH I bought as much for the colour as the model, and the Sanguine panels didn't match perfectly.

But I regret not buying an Alligator Plume 32 at that time, had they had any red or Emeraude I would have found the money to buy both.
