Mini mini vs mini. It is definitely much smaller compare to the mini. IMO it is a great size for weekends if you don't have too much to carry. Hope this helps!

Wow! I love it! It looks like a nice size! And, the color is gorgeous! :loveeyes:

Thank you soooo much for posting the comparison picture! Now I need to check out the colors again...:graucho:

Congrats on your bag! :love:

Hello everyone, I couldn't go through every single page to see if this was discussed. I really love the lady bag in saffiano and nearly bought it yesterday but the threading loop opening worries me. It seems like too much hassle especially when out and about and I need to pull out my wallet multiple times. I don't live in the US so can't return if I order online too. Everything else is a yes so please share your experiences. I am not sure I'd leave it open with the flap hanging
 
Just ordered a veg tanned black lady bag, so excited! I'm thinking about attaching magnetic snaps to keep the flap down without having to loop the ties. Has anyone done this?
Please forgive me and direct to the correct place if this has already been addressed elsewhere =)
Thank you!
 
Hi guys!! I just bought my first MG, it's a lady bag in black saffiano with the flamma interior.. I was inspecting it to make sure everything was fine and noticed a couple of things. I'd love to ask you guys if you think these are normal for a bag upon initial purchase??
1) At the top of the bag, the red peeks out and some places look like the red has chipped or worn off. It's only in the middle between the straps that I see this, not the sides. I don't even see the red peeking on the sides.
2) One of the buttons on the hardware has a weird marking or tarnish, I'm not sure?? But I've tried wiping with water and it won't go away. I haven't tried anything else because I'm scared I'll make it worse or something.
3) There's a corner on the bottom that has not-smooth edge. It looks like the end of the stitching was not buffed down enough so it creates a corner that was catching onto my tights a couple of times last night at dinner.
4) On one of the sides of the string, there's a tiny part that looks like the leather got nicked and so instead of it being smooth and continuous like the rest of the tie, if I run my hand along it there's a rough point. It could get caught on thin or sheer fabrics in the same way the bottom corners of my bag were catching my tights.

Are these normal for a new bag in this leather?? Have you guys ever encountered any of these? Or am I just overanalyzing lol. I e-mailed the SA who helped me but would love you guys' input. If so, how can I rectify the button or hard corner?? Thank you SO much in advance!!

My guess is MG would not do anything about it and say it’s normal. However, if it bothers you, I’d return or exchange it.
