I am really tempted to join the 2nd round but I'm a bit iffy about the purple zipper. This purse is beautiful no doubt. What's holding me back is the fact that the purple doesn't seem to pop (say, like the electric blue one) which IMHO is the point for the unexpected color. Would you say, the purple does stand out IRL or does it get lost in the sea of black leather or get out-shined by the basket weave detail. Appreciate your personal insights on this. TIA! :flowers:

I am thinking about starting a new SO for this. I love purple too, but I can't decide between purple, fuschia, and blue...

To be honest, I was suuuuper disappointed when the first pics came out of this bag for exactly that reason. In my opinion the purple is not what I expected but I'm glad. As much as I liked the idea of a pop of color and if it had come out that way, I would have been happy as well--when I think seriously, I like this better. It's a like a little surprise. People wouldn't notice it right away, but when they do it would be more like "wow, I didn't notice that before. How cool". At least that would be my first reaction if I hadn't been on this SO from the beginning.

On another note, and only because I'm 30 and sometimes feel OLD, this is just enough pop for me on such a classy everyday bag. I'm not sure if I'd want too much color poppage going on when I'm in my business attire...This is subtle and to overuse a word: Classy.

If you want pop, I'd go with the fucshia. That bag will be exactly what you're looking for. Either way, any incarnation of this bag will be amazing. By far, the best RM ever. IMO, of course.

I agree with you completely, MT!:smile:
 
Me three. I've carried her every day except last Friday night. And that was only because she's a little too much to carry to a bar. Not to mention, I would have stabbed the first person who dripped or spilled beer on her.
 
Carrying her today too for work on Saturday! I just glanced over and smiled. She is soooooooooo pretty!!

Can't wait to see the other SO reveals. More purse porn is always good.
