After many years of liking this bag, thinking it was too expensive, having the color combo I wanted always sold out, forgetting about it, then returning to it, I got myself a mini mini cammello/rosa. I decided to oil it first to help with the patina. There was recently a big discount on this bag at Nordstrom, so I was comfortable with experimenting. I'm also thinking of adding something to the tie to help with closing - I'm just not a fan of tying and retying the bow. I'm going to oil it at least one more time which will help with evening out the color.

Here is what it looks like after 1 application of leather oil:

So, hoping for some help here... I have this picture in my head of a gorgeous rust-red-brown-tan-ish bucket bag in suede, with a rich blue interior. Is this bag a figment of my imagination, or does it really exist? I can't find it online, just a regular smooth leather.

I want it...!

I've only seen this color combo in smooth leather. Suede is so hard to keep clean anyway though...
