Does any one here have multiple SDJs?
I'm curious whether the keys are interchangeable between different padlocks - meaning, would the keys from one bag be able to unlock the padlock that comes with a different bag? The reason I ask is because I've seen some pre-loved SDJs with missing keys and since I already own a SDJ, I wonder if my keys might work.
 
Hoping someone can give me some advice. I'm heading to Paris and then on to Florence in July and was planning on purchasing a leather Louis Vuitton there, but can't find any styles I really like. I just recently saw the SDJ baby size in black grained leather in a dept store here and I love it. Perfect size for me. Is this a bag I will be able to find easily in Paris. I would really like to purchase it there as it's less money than here in the states. Any opinions would be appreciated. I'm new to this brand, but felt it looked like a classy bag and just liked it more over the Louis Vuitton. I'd be using it as my everyday bag. Thank you so much!

For anyone interested, my croc embossed small SDJ in 'Coal' arrived today. Ordered Saturday and arrived Tuesday with DHL express so that's pretty impressive seeing I'm in Sydney. That said, my experiences with DHL express have always been good.

I did not receive an email from myTheresa asking for credit card details or photo ID FYI. My experience with them was easy and smooth. That being said, this is my first purchase with them and I don't know how they are with accepting returns. The bottom middle "foot" didn't come with a sticker on and it's a little scratched.

The colour is unusual. Like a warm dark grey? Or my friend said a "pencil grey". Some photos I've taken it looks almost black, but I think the below photos captures the colour well. I need to check it actually goes with my clothes before I take off the tag, and if it does then I'm very pleased! Lighter in weight than I thought.

I'm home sick today and I don't have the energy to take any modelling shots and these are rushed but can do on another day if anyone wishes. Let me know your thoughts !

Stunning [emoji7] feel better soon! I think it's quite a lovely neutral-y color, and yet a nice alternative to the usual black. Hope it goes well with your wardrobe - please post modshots when you feel up to it [emoji4] I'm still deciding myself between the baby and small size [emoji848]

Looks gorgeous! Hope you get better soon and would love to see mod shots too! I really love the colour, is it more of a mat grey? When I look at the black croc embossed, it looks rather shiny but I have not seen it in the flesh.

Thank you Belle and Tropezienne :smile:! Im glad I took the plunge! I've been thinking about this bag for a couple of years! Thanks for the well wishes, It's just a bad cold so hopefully I'm over it soon. No problem, I will do some modshots sometime this week then! I've held it up against some of my clothes and goes with almost everything so I'm happy! I'm 5'9 and after holding the baby and small I knew the baby would be too small to also use as a work bag for me because I lug a fair bit around, although the baby is such a cute size. If I could ever get a second SDJ I would get a baby in a lighter colour I think!

I generally carry a mini water bottle, makeup bag, sunglasses, perfume, kindle etc. I usually use my Prada saffiano double zip (good size) or the LV Alma DE PM (slightly too small). Off topic, but the Prada has deteriorated significantly. I take good care of my bags but the strap has broken, a press stud has fallen off and the sealing peeled off lol so need to get it fixed.

I would say it's not quite a matte, but it's definitely not as glossy as the croc tends to look in pictures, even on the myTheresa website. Maybe a semi-matte? Has a slight sheen to the finish.

Looks beautiful! Love it. Great color. The bottom feet wouldn't bother me. They are going to scratch. Their purpose is to protect the rest of the bag. I just looked for about the 5 th time this bag in black grain leather in baby size and am loving it. definitely want to get it. For me the baby size is perfect. Congrats on a beautiful bag and hope you feel better soon.

Thank you for the lovely comments and I am already on the mend so your well wishes are working! Attaching some photos taken after work today when I got home. Unfortunately it gets dark about 5pm these days so I didn't have much to work with lighting-wise. Happy to post a photo of the bag in decent lighting to show yet another facet of the colour if anyone is contemplating getting it but I'm conscious that not everyone wants to see 10 photos of the bag! At work it looked grey-mauve under the lights at my desk- too funny! Again for reference, I'm just over 5'9.

Lovely! I would gladly see 10 photos of any lovely bag, but no need to upload more if you don't want to! You've shown us lots of angles (: your coat is also super chic!
