I just got my baby bella and the jury is still out on it. I'm going to have to think about it for a few days before I decide. I'm undecided on the color, it's berry and it's a really dark purple that almost looks black, however the stitching around the chain is noticeably lighter. I got it at a great price which is a part of why I want to keep it, but a part of me still likes the dark metallic one better. Even though the sheen on this one is slightly metallic looking in the right light I'm kind of leaning towards the other color over this one. I kind of feel like this one looks so close to black that unless it's on top of something black or in bright light it's hard to tell that it's really purple. Decisions decisions :p

If you don't love it, return it- regardless of the price. I've purchased bags because they were a great price, used them a couple times and then they never see the light. In hind sight I wish I had saved the money for something I lust for! Btw is the chain gold or silver?

I decided later yesterday to return it. I generally don't keep bags just because I got them on sale. My general rule is if you don't want to switch over to a new bag when you bring it home it should go back so I kind of referred too that rule. Purple is one of my favorite colors but like I said before this is SO close to looking like black that it kind of dulls the look of the bag it looks like a off black, and I think this bag looks great in black. Somehow this color just doesn't cut it for me and the stitching around the chain being notably lighter than the bag it self is also off putting. I really love it in the dark metallic black and I realized I can't settle for this one. Hopefully I can snag that one on sale too. I have become extremely more critical of my bags over the past few years, threw trial and error. The chain is sliver, it may look goldish because it's reflecting off of the wood door/trim in the bathroom.

I've just got my first Stella tote in a lovely brown colour but I'm just not sure I love it :( not sure if I should sell it as I've waited so long for it but I've only used it once and I've had her 3 months. Any advice please x

Bummer. If you can sell it for a good price, do it! It's been my experience that if I don't love the bag it just sits in the closet. :(

Stella has the tartan Falabella and Tweed Falabella on sale on her website for $780! it says there is one last one of the tweed. There are also some small fold over clutches and fold over bags on sale in the same prints. The tweed is grey.

I think if you've definitely decided that you're not going to use it then you probably should sell it.
Although saying that, I bought my blue leopard falabella in the harvey nics sale last xmas eve, never used it for months (at least 7 months!) but now im in love with it. Use it all the time!

This was probably asked already on here, but does anyone know how the foldover falabella compares to the large falabella in size? I am interested in the foldover falabella. Can you compare them to the Neverfull by Louis Vuitton ( do not own it, but have seen the different sizes) or the Marc by Marc Jacobs Francesa (which I do own and find to be medium in size)?

I don't own either LV or the MJ however I can compare my foldover tote to my Mulberry Daria satchel (dimensions can be found on the mulberry website)
Here's a pic side by side

Thank you so much! I have not been able to reply to people since I have been writing a research paper and I have also been getting ready for finals :( . Anyways, the bag seems a lot smaller than I had anticipated. I would definitely need to see it in person so I can see what I could carry in it. I would also need to see it against my body. I really like the foldover falabella and I am not interested in the regular large size.

No, this is not a fold over tote. This looks like a small tote, but could be large- difficult to tell in the pic. The fold over tote has two small hand chains and one shoulder chain.
