An observation about the discussed black flecks on the pastel - I didn't notice this on my pastel mini pochette but saw it on the Kirigami and my Zoe. I personally believe it's extra flakes of glazing which stuck to the canvas, or some sort of lint...it takes a bit of work to remove even if it's not stuck to the canvas, could be some sort of static or just the flecks getting stuck in the nooks and crannies of the canvas. If you find black specks, it's probably normal and can be cleaned off.
Some other photos I took yesterday...
- Red Escale with 2015 Grenade (pinky red) - I debated the red Escale strap for couple days because I wanted it to go with this bag. It’s not a perfect match but it would’ve still looked really nice together. Ultimately I couldn’t justify the cost for just a strap.
- Seaside with blue Escale and 2015 Grenade with red
- Some people mentioned their medium Kirigramis could fit as much as their mini Pochette. I managed to transfer all my stuff over from the Escale mini Pochette to the medium Kirigami but the things are messier inside. Also, it would fit significantly less than my monogram mini pochette but I’m still surprised it’s able to fit so much!
