Well since you already have a nice cognac bag, maybe to diversify a little, you could try the turtledove. It really is a very nice grey.I think I look better in colder hues. However, as my wardrobe is mainly navy, black, white and some more navy, blue and black jeans, light grey and few burgundy items, I think natural could be a great pop of colour in this very neutral wardrobe
And I have one congac coloured bag which I do love with all my navy jackets (rain jacket here on the photo)

@liliasla agree about turtledove. It truly is a gorgeous grey and in the roseau leather, absolutely beautiful.
Got this recently as a work bag, boutique was having a sale for this colour only and I got the last piece. The leather is so soft and the bag is easy to carry. Loving it 
It’s a beautiful color...and quite a neutral too. Goes with everything and the Roseau essential is the perfect leather tote. Congrats!
Congrats! I love this line. Very pretty neutral and quite lightweight too. Enjoy it.
How are you loving the flap crossbody? I am trying to decide on the Mulberry mini Alexia or the Roseau Flap Crossbody.
Hi everyone,
I purchased a Roseau essential tote last year in black and am considering to get one in the natural/cognac colour too to have a spring/summer alternative. However, I’m already seeing some corner wear (or is it just me?) on this one although I take care of it without babying it too much. How do you experience this with your Roseau essentials (especially the lighter colours)?
Thank you in advance!

Honestly I'm not seeing corner wear, I think I'm seeing glare from the pic lighting; it seems the leather grain is not as apparent on the corners because of the folding and stretching in that area? Hopefully a Roseau essential owner will chime in on the durability. Good luck.
Here's a pic of my new Roseau XS shoulder bags in black and white, plus some Instagram shots. I got rid of all my larger Roseau totes posted earlier in this thread, but this little SS22 style is feeling fresh and working for me right now. Glad to still have some bags from the classic Roseau line in my collection. 
Super enabling pics. Gorgeous Roseaus. I'm happy that you have them in your collection too.
I agree with @Cosmopolitan and don't see any corner wear too. I have the Roseau Essential shoulder bag in Natural and do not baby it as well. I find this leather type to be very hardy. The corners for mine.

Ooh have you shared mod pics for this FHB? I would love to see...
There you go. Perfect size for me. I prefer the north south orientation as I don't carry much. This bag allows me to have all my essentials standing upright, offering me easy access to just reach in and get what I need. As always, LC has this deep zippered pocket on one side and I slot my valuables within. Very secure. I don't clasp the toggle though.
