Wow that is good to know. So black would probably hold its shape better I assume? I like how it looks the way it is sitting in the shopping cart, it looks fuller with silhouette, whereasI see some photos the bag is literally slouched when clutching in their arm.

I agree, the chain pouch is too much to be classic lol. The chain has the similar young&fun feel to the JW anderson chain mule.
It definitely slouches when held certain ways! I think it’s best if you go try one on and see irl to really make sure.
Gorgeous collection! Is that the coin purse in Linoleum? You have all the colors I love!
Thanks for letting me share
Thank you. And yes it is in linoleum a gorgeous shade of blue!
Shopped for my first BV while in Paris and I am hooked! I ended up getting the large intrecciato in caramel (not pictured because I had to wait for them to bring it from another store). I echo what a lot of people mentioned in the thread, the intrecciato def holds it's shape better that the smooth leather, I was originally thinking I was going to love the smooth more but it was much more saggy than I had imagined. The SA also worked with me and we both decided that my first piece needed to be a classic intrecciato. My spouse was pushing me to also get a mini too and I don't know why I hesitated! Regrets! The colors options were all too much, I knew I wanted something fun for the mini, that deep turquoise was beautiful but I was telling myself maybe I should go smooth leather for the mini, and I just got in my head.
I was in between the black and the caramel but the black was too formal, it's gorg but I knew I personally wouldn't reach for it as often since it looks so much fancier. I think I will get so much more use out of the caramel. The plaster white was also beautiful but I'm sadly a very messy eater and also wear cheap old navy jeans that stain the hell out of any white purse I wear so I had to veto that. Hopefully this helps anyone else out there still making up there mind. I try to choose classics that I love even after people may not think they're "in style" any more. I got my Céline (old Céline) nano luggage tote about 4 years ago just like this BV pouch a few years after the craze but that's how I knew I still really loved it even without the hype!
I'm really loving BV and I'm already eyeing the mini jodie or cassette bag next. Thanks for everyone's comments and pics on the thread it def helped me narrow my decision.
large pouch owners - how is it as a casual day bag? the size is amazing, do you get used to hand held? I have other bags I just am thinking of getting the caramel as a casual bag
i like to use mine for casual occasions when i don't lug my kitchen sink around
light shopping, meeting friends, semi-formal work meetings, etc
Contrary to what others would maybe say, it’s actually the perfect grab and go day bag. I hold mine a ton just by the frame and it’s so effortless. If you need both hands free, you just simply put it under your armpit and it’s so weightless that I forget it’s even there sometimes! I have the large caramel intrecciato and it’s just buttery goodness and SO stunning… not to mention the color goes great all year round.
Getting the caramel. I was hoping for answers like these haha
haha
