i didn't even know this color existed! thanks for feeding the monster hahaha but i think it's muted enough where you won't get sick of it (unlike the lavender one i was contemplating!) something about the flamenco looks better in these more colorful colors!

I thought the mutedness also made it veer into more of a neutral territory rather than a bag that could only be used once in a while. Thanks for justifying my obsession! I also have quite a few Nordstrom notes so it's even more tempting....
Thanks for the heads up @topochico
The Nordstrom photos, it kind of killed the bag for me. The CHOCOLATE flamenco is a beautiful matte leather on their website. The Nordstrom photos however show the leather to be rather shiny and the tone doesn't appear close to the loewe photos. Sigh I guess that's what happens with online shopping!

Hi, would you mind telling me if the short strap makes it much more difficult to get in and out of the bag? Currently deciding whether or not to purchase one for mine! Thanks so much.
Does anyone have the XL, and if so, do you love it?
We have the Herbarium XL and my sis recently bought a nappa XL and the verdict is that it is really a bit too large to be considered a good size for most people. It can hold a lot but is a formless bag so things will constantly shift about inside, and because it can hold a lot, a fully loaded XL is quite substantial in weight and may be painful to tote around for long periods. We got a bag organiser for the Herbarium one to help with the black hole issue but even then the bag sees very little light of day. I think the L sized flamenco tote is a much better size tbh.
Thanks so much for sharing your insights. This is really helpful and the exact info I was looking for! Large flamenco tote sounds like a better option.
Joining the flamenco club with a mini in warm desert. I also bought the gold donut chain, so I can switch up the look a bit. I'll prob use the leather crossbody strap most of the time though. I love how much this mini can hold!
And in case anyone is curious, I compared warm desert against BV caramel. It's very close, but a bit warmer than BV.

Congrats on your mini in warm desert. This is a truly gorgeous color. I love it when I saw it at the boutique but held off as I own so much of this hue from other brands.
Thank you so much! I wanted a "caramel" crossbody that was easier to use than my mini pouch. Fitting my big Samsung phone into the mini pouch takes some finagling & is not easy to maneuver in and out. LOL.
You will be very pleased with the mini flamenco then. It is so easy to get to your essentials.
This looks sooooooo good with the donut chain! :Hides credit card:
Doesn't it?? It changes the look/vibe of the bag completely, hence why I had to buy it.This looks sooooooo good with the donut chain! :Hides credit card:
I like my Flamenco‘s (a Mini and e Clutch) also with my Donut Chain
