Yes, I have four GP 36! They really are useful. I have Negonda leather in gold and in blue indigo and Vache leather in colvert and in rouge duchese. They are infinitely versatile and I like that they can fit over the shoulder, have a zip interior pocket and they are very simple yet elegant. If only the straps were a tiny bit longer they would be absolutely perfect.

This, but I would add feet on the bag as well. I can't believe it doesn't have feet--how much can that possibly cost?!
 
Oh wow I'm going to have to put my feet down on country leather over negonda! I loooove that pebbled look. I heard it's pretty structured too compared to negonda, how do you think of it so far?
Have to say it's my favorite leather so far (with the exception of chevre mysore). Was going to get an insert but looks like I might not have to..will see in a few more weeks:smile:

Here's my new tote! I usually wait a few days before I use new bags, probably to get over the pricetag shock, but with this one, I immediately transferred my items and started using it yesterday afternoon.

What I've noticed is that my GP30 does look a little like a child's bag (on my 5'10"-ish frame) when completely snapped and carried. If I unsnap the middle, it doesn't look as pinched, appears larger and has a casual vibe. It's very cute and easy to use. My items take up the bottom inch or two of the bag.

I think I'm going to get a liner because I like the thought of cinching the liner closed (a little), which would make me feel more secure carrying the bag unsnapped.

I am completely happy with this purchase!!! My daughter is too- she's been trying it on for size.

Thank you for allowing me to share my photos with you!

I agree that it looks better with the bag unsnapped. Your GP looks really pretty!!

I'm waiting for my rose pourpre GP to arrive at the shop[emoji173]️Hopefully this week[emoji5]

Please take a photo (or two, or three :yes:), when you find time. I have not heard of the color Rose Pourpre, but it sounds very pretty.
I am excited for you!

Thank you.
In certain lighting the black almost looks like a very dark blue, but then I put it beside something black and realize it is a true black. I'm already thinking bag charm or twillies.
Egads! Where does the madness of Hermes shopping stop? :panic::facepalm::happydance:
