I was able to purchase a mini lindy in sesame, not on the US website but on the Canadain website last week so it is indeed possible. Long story short, they ended up giving me the mini lindy in gold because they are sold out of sesame. Waiting for it to get here
So in love.
The color should be fairly worry free and match multiple outfits, so it should fit your needs. My SA describes this bag as “the perfect mom bag” when she offered it to me! Possibly true but not a very seductive description. (She is so cute though, so it was just funny when she said it)
Thanks for the reply Nicole! I consider mini Lindy bag exactly like your SA said. Bordeaux is a beautiful neutral to me and I love the color. It is the swift leather I am worried about.
Congrats on your Lindy! This combination is beautiful but you should wait for Bordeaux swift if that’s what you want.
I shall mull over it! It might be a long wait for the colour I want and I sometimes have little patience
I think she meant a good mom purse, not a diaper bag alternative, but that would be even more amusing
It was a really cute description!
I think swift is the ideal leather for a lindy because it is supposed to have a softer shape and swift will help this look in the mini size which tends to have a boxier shape due to the small size (unless you don’t like the typical Lindy shape, then clemence would make sense). Swift should be a little lighter than clemence, so that’s one plus, but it depends on which leather you love more.
Do you think Swift wears well with time and is a good option for an everyday bag?
I personally love the deep blue, and I was offered the color you want and turned it down! Ask your SA if your Bordeaux or a color you like more is coming soon; maybe that will help you decide? I personally would not settle for a color I do not love, especially in a bag that is supposed to be cute, fun and bring you delight!
My experience is that it can get imprints and sag marks more easily if overfilled. I have only had small bags in swift and they did not wear great (handle getting wavy and stretchy in KP), imprints in a clutch, K25 in swift seems ok but I have only used it a few times and it is noir so doesn’t show stretch marks or imprints like another color would. Honestly, I have not heard many people talk about having these problems with Swift, so I may just being more picky about it. These should be less of an issue with the mini Lindy also compared to a more structured bag.
