I am having trouble deciding between the Mono and Azur. I ABSOLUTELY love Mono. 
I'm actually selling my DE pieces because I have grown bored of them. I don't have any bags in DA. When I see a DA bag with a beautiful honey patina I think they look so carefree. But that honey takes time. This will be mostly a Spring and Summer bag for me. Once I sell my DE. I will have 9 Mono pieces, 1 Vernis and 1 DA. But that's just a cles pochette. My passion is Mono but I love a good honey patina Azur.
Can anyone post a pic of their Artsy DA with a gorgeous honey patina?

I don't have a picture right now, but I would really encourage you toward the Artsy in DA, especially as you talk about a spring/summer bag. It's just perfect, and it does patina up very nicely. There's nothing like DA during those warmer months. It's just beautiful! You have quite a few Mono pieces, and you can perhaps get the Artsy in Mono up the road if you feel that you want to. I bought the Artsy in DA and loved it so much that I went back for Mono!
I loved the Artsy Mono so much that I bought it in DA too. It looks so good in DA!
you two are cracking me up. You both sorta concluded with get both.
I fear Artsy might be an addiction.Hi all,
I'm hoping someone here might be able to help me. I purchased the Artsy Empreinte in Aube around 5 years ago. After about 2-3 years I noticed that the bottom corners of the bag had faded in colour. This colour fading also creaped up the sides of the bag along the stitch line. The colour fading worsened over time even going almost white-ish. I didn't take it in to the boutique straight away, instead putting it back in the pouch to 'deal with later'. I finally took it into my local boutique last year in June and they very kindly sent it back to Singapore and did a full leather treatment on it and it came back looking great at the end of August.
I don't use this bag very often so it is in great condition. I took it out of the pouch to use in January of this year and noticed that the fading was happening again in the corners - only 4 months after it had the treatment done.
Is this common for this type of bag and has anyone experienced it before?
I have returned it to my local boutique today and they are going to get their specialist to look at it but I'm interested to know if I'm the only person this has happened to.
I love this bag and love the colour but really don't like the fading.
Thanks in advance.

Here you go. Almost 4 year old artsy. DA in spring and summer is to die for. I had it out saturday when it was 80 in Dallas and I got many complimentsI am having trouble deciding between the Mono and Azur. I ABSOLUTELY love Mono.

Absolutely love !!!! So smooshie!!!
Thankyou !!!You are welcome! I have contemplated getting the Mono too myself . If you don’t believe there is such a thing as Artsy addiction you probably don’t own one . I think she is the most gorgeous hobo LV makes
100% agree, which is how I ended up with 3!
How do you use your charm/key thing? On the website it says there is a D ring inside. But the online pics do not show it. Do you use this chain on that inner D ring for your Keys and such? Or how do you use the D ring? I can't wait to get this bag. Just trying to sell some items to fund it

Legit ! Love this bag in all the patterns.
I don't use the charm/key thing for anything. There is a D ring inside. I clip my mini pochette (such a great little multi-use piece!) onto it so that I can always find it.How do you use your charm/key thing? On the website it says there is a D ring inside.
