I waffled on the gilt sale because I couldn't decide between the jenkins blue or deep pink. Well I happened to be at Marshalls and I saw a couple of KS bags. One of them was the Little Minka in deep pink so at $20 less than gilt's sale I snatched it up.

I was deciding between the same two colors too! I loooooove pink but I am trying not to have an entirely pink purse collection and I really liked that shade of blue, so I kept clicking back and forth between the deep pink and Jenkins blue on gilt and agonizing (I know, like this is an actual problem, haha).

I ended up finding a Little Minka in deep pink for even less than gilt's price so that made the decision a lot easier. It was like the universe saying, "You know you want this in pink!" Since I don't have a pink leather bag in the same shape/size as the Little Minka, I'm telling myself it's okay that I just bought another pink bag. It should be here by Monday. I can't wait to see it in person!

I like the bag but I LOVE the lining. Without it, this would be just another black bag. A nice black bag, to be sure, but the lining is so fun and cheerful. It makes me think of picnics and summer!

Please, tell me... is the leather on this bag soft, and is the short handle soft-ish ? Thanks....I love the look of this bag, but the short handle on my shoulder might bother me....:smile1:

Yes the leather is soft. And the handle is soft. I tried it on my shoulder with most of the stuffing still in the bag and it felt okay but I didn't like the way it wore. Since it is a larger east/west I would prefer a different drop length to be able to wear it well on the shoulder. It does look adorable on the arm and with the long strap on the shoulder. So I plan on using the short handle on my arm and will adjust the length of the strap so that it hangs well off my shoulder.
 
Hi ladies! I recently bought a kate spade diaper bag. I'm 37weeks and our baby girl is coming soon!!! Sooo excited :)

Congratulations on your lovely bag and your baby girl-to-be! :-) My first Kate Spade in 2006 was a red patent Victoria baby bag - I loved the pockets, wipe-clean lining and matching change mat! It still looks immaculate today as an everyday bag! :-)
