I braid the strap because I find it way too long for crossbody (and I’m 5’9”). It does stay kinked when I untie it but with gravity and weight it straightens out again. You can also iron over it with a warm towel to flatten it out quicker.
I was going to suggest the same, but I thought one might gasp at the suggestion!
 
Does anyone know the difference between "soft white" and "ghost". My receipt says "soft white" but
it's not that white, and I'm wondering if I somehow got "ghost" instead?
Thanks so much! Mine is not white like a white piece of paper or white tee shirt.

Soft white is more like an off-white, which is a slight cool-toned grey in low light and almost white under bright light. Ghost is a light grey which reminds me of the 21A Chanel grey. I personally prefer Ghost for its versalitiy. But it still makes me feel stressful if I have to use such a light colored bag.

Thank you so much for the explanation! I plan on using it for dinners during an upcoming 3 week trip. The less I take with me, the more room I’ll have for shopping. Also since the bag is squishy I won’t have to worry about ruining a hard framed bag which I’ve managed to do in the past.
 
knowing there will be a price increase soon, I am struggling between a mini flamenco or a large (either go small or go big…)

I am just now too sure how the large one will hold its shape and its wear and tear. Anyone with a large flamenco can share your experience with the bag with me?

I prefer the look of the large, but I found it to be a bit heavy so I passed.

Thoughts? Do you like the braided strap with my medium flamenco or the donut chain strap? Or keep both? Also would like any advice on a long strap that can be worn crossbody. Like others here, I find the thin strap that comes with the bag quite uncomfortable when my bag is full! TIA! View attachment 5794793

I also have the donut strap, and I LOVE it. It really dresses the bag up. You will be glad you have that one. I'm really liking my small black strap/handle. I can leave it on the bag with the thin cross body strap. I'm not sure about the braided strap. That was a no go for me with the mini Flamenco.

The donut strap is so pretty and matches the flamenco so well! Considering a donut strap for myself now!
