Hi dear CPrincessUK! Your bags are gorgeous! [emoji4] How do you find the new Bays compared to the Heritage one? Actually, they look surprisingly similar in the pic, only the sides differ more I guess and they can be tucked in, can’t they?
Yes the sides can be tucked in but actually as it doesn’t have a cloche and the postman’s lock is smaller I end up carrying it with the wings out. With the wings in it seems like an unfinished heritage Bayswater so I have had to accept the winged look although I wasn’t originally a fan.
But I like having a slightly different look. The advantages of the new bays are that it is easier to put on your shoulder, I think it is a bit lighter and it is much roomier inside. I prefer the inside pockets on the back like in the heritage or maybe that’s just me as I am so used to the heritage bays.
Using her for the first time tomorrow as I have a formal cabinet meeting. Can’t wait (to use the bag that is, ambivalent about the 3hr meeting!) Haha
Thank you for the info! [emoji4] That’s an interesting point about the ”unfinished heritage Bayswater” look if the wings are tucked in. I was just thinking that maybe it would look bulky in that way. You have a gorgeous collection of Bayswaters and I’m sure the new ones are a really nice addition. [emoji4]
Mulberry Oxblood is good in any form, size and shape!
It is a stunning colour but I need a true red or blue red bag. I am a deep winter in colours. Have just ordered a bright red medium lily so looking to see whether that colour will suit. My poppy red in the regular lily is perfect for me as it is a darker red with blue undertones but it is really difficult to get that colour now.I love fiery red but on smaller bag..
Your oxblood new Bays is beautiful!
Many congrats
I bought a Lily last year in scarlet...don't know if they still have this color. Gorgeous blue-red!It is a stunning colour but I need a true red or blue red bag. I am a deep winter in colours.
