This is kind of a silly question, but do you ladies always keep your bag knotted? I find that when I do, I have a hard time getting things in and out of my bag, but when I don't, it looses the shape!

I use the 3-4 loop knot that everyone's been using. The post above mine with the cammello bucket has the knot I use! But for the most part mine is relatively loose and rarely pulled tight because I'm always reaching in and out of my bag.

I keep mine knotted as shown in the earlier post all the time too, but it's not pulled completely closed so that I can reach for my phones or wallet conveniently. However, I don't store my other ones knotted. I pull them close loosely to keep the shape but leave them untied, mostly because I tie the mini and mini mini in bows only.

Wow, thank you! I guess I need to read through this thread more :p When it's looser, does it tend to flatten against you?

Need to learn this loop :cool: It's just a little frustrating how much it flattens against my hip!

I have the mini mini and when it's looser it does flatten a little at the top where the leather has gotten a little softer. Mine's only a month old so far but as far as I know, with age the leather will loose its initial stiffness and the bag will flatten against you (but not too much I think). Hopefully someone that has had their bags longer can chime in because I'm not sure if the bottom part will lose its shape.
 
Sharing my recent bucket bag purchase in peony color!! 😊 I think I will need to baby it so it doesn't get color transfer...but still love this pink.
