Thoughts about the epi Neo Noe?

[Cicci783]

Hi! What the epi Neo Noe owners think about the bag? Is she comfortable and lightweight? I still can’t find her in my nearest boutique so I still can’t try her on.

I. LOVE. IT.
I have two: the citron (yellow with purple) and loved it so much I also got the black. I have carried both a few times and I absolutely love them.
I used to own a canvas Neonoé with the black leather and interior and just didn't love it, so I sold it. However, I'm so in love with the Epi ones that I'm thinking about repurchasing the canvas one, this time in pink or red.

This bag is very well thought through. I don't like most "neo" bags, but this one is just right. Perfect proportions, practical yet feminine. Perfect.

Couldn't agree more. I got mine (the gold cipango) 2 months ago and have been using it just about every work day since. I find it to be very comfortable. I tend to stick to small top handle / cross body styles, so I'm surprised by how often I use this shoulder carry. For some reason, the strap just stays on my shoulder really well (something that i can't say for most shoulder bags). It works so well for me that I'm considering getting it in another color (something brighter or lighter for spring/summer). I thought about the canvas version too, but something about it just seems unfinished-looking to my eye; plus I like having the top handle option with the epi.

I also have kind of a problem making bags stay on my shoulder, but this one stays put. And I have this feeling about the canvas version looking unfinished as well, and this is exactly one of the things that made me not love the Noir I previously owned, but now I think it makes the bag look kinda edgy. Go figure! Lol

Thank you very much! Could someone show me some modeling pics?

I moved a few weeks ago and still didn't buy a full-size mirror for my house (lol), but I'll try to take some mod shots with the timer of my cellphone camera when I get home later.

Oh, can you share a picture? Is Gold C. like a Cognac color ? [emoji5]

I love my epi Neonoe! At first I had my eyes on the Mono Neonoe but when this one came out I was excited and curious since it has the short strap as well. When I saw it instore I wS surprised because I always see it soldout online - so I knew I had to have it.
I have been using both the short and shoulder strap - and short strap is so useful for when you need to grab and go. The shoulder strap also sits comfortably on my shoulder. Also - this bag may look heavy but it is actually very light - just like my Speedy B30 in DE. I do like the structured look of this bag and I am so happy I got this instead of the mono!

Here’s a mod shot. I am 5 2 for reference.

I'll try - as soon as I figure out how to upload photos. I really need to stop being such a free-rider on this forum - I've learned so much from seeing the photos others post here, but I've just been too busy (okay, lazy) to figure out how to do it myself .
But anyway, as for the color, I would say it's a bit lighter than a deep cognac and more orange than say a caramel. The color actually reminds me of tabby cats

The NeoNoé in canvas looks cheap to me, but the Épi version looks awesome.

Thanks!

As I promised, here are some mod shots. I’m sorry about the crappy quality of the pictures, but I had to crop them a lot. Also excuse my super tired face. I hope the pictures help!

Bonus pic: on the first mod shot I took, I forgot to take off my Pusheen charm xD (and also my coat, because you can barely see the black bag with me wearing the coat)

Damn, forgot to add pictures with the long strap. For reference, I’m just a little under 5’2”
