I agree with Ubo for several reasons, the most important one being that these bags hold their value really well and when you get tired of them and want new ones, you can sell them and easily get over half of your money back. Also, if your kids inherit your expensive bag collection, they are worthless, if they are not in thir original condition, without all of their original parts.It devalues the bag to alter it in any way. These bags are collectables!

This is why I love my Tristan bags, because it is almost identical to the Riley, but only has the longer strap where it belongs, on the sides. Here is a pic of one that I have in peanut. See where the strap attaches? I think it's too fancy for some with all the extra shiny hardware and chains, but that's what I like about it. The Riley is gorgeous but much more plain than the Tristan, but they are basically the same bag. Plus on the Tristan, the handles are long enough to wear on the shoulder as well, where the Riley's are hand carry only.

Ohh you got your new Tristan!!! Looks good!

Good points! Like you said I might need to sell it one day. I have many other bags that I can use the strap to my liking. Not worth the trouble for this one.

I own two watermelon accessories and I love them all. To be honest I love watermelon on soft leather more. The wristlet is made of soft leather, the card holder is made of saffiano leather.

Cinthia I just realized my Rebecca Minkoff Sloane sort of resembles Tristan haha, just without all of the buckles and the chains on the strap. I have this one in this color, but I got her on super sale for $170. http://www.barneyswarehouse.com/reb...3913667.html?gclid=CNbcrfiTp8YCFRKUfgod1qABGA
