I was on the fence about the ivory or toasted wheat but the toasted wheat won. It is so gorgeous in person. A great neutral! A great size to wear in the summer too. I was worried that it said patent leather but it is nothing like it IRL, I couldn't even tell.

Just an update, I got the denim and have been using it almost everyday! Getting complements on it all the time, my LV zippy wallet fits in but I think I need a smaller wallet for easier access. Overall very happy with my purchase.

Does Tory Burch change the type of leather they use for the fleming? I prefer the pebbled or smooth leather over the saffiano leather.

Yes - they were smooth leather last season. I was excited when I saw all the available colors this season but disappointed TB switched to saffiano. I feel like more and more designers are switching to saffiano for cheaper production costs as well as being able to offer less expensive products to the customers... overall I feel like it really cheapens the look and feel of the bags. :sad:

I agree. I honestly despise saffiano leather. Feels and looks like pleather to me.

Hi! Is it possible for you to snap a few pics of this bag? I'd like to compare it to my friend's bag - same type. The stitches on her bag is of a different colour than the patent leather itself, i am wondering if its actually like that. Thx!

I just got this bag In the light pink color. It was actually the last one available. I get sooo many compliments on it. And yes a lot of people think it's a chanel at first sight. I'm so in love with the look of it. Its soo classy! However I'm still trying to get used to it. It's quite small compared to the bags I normally carry on a daily basis so I find myself having a hard time getting used to this purse. I've only worn it twice so I'm still trying!

Hi. I know this is an older post, but looks like you were trying on the Mercer bag as well as the Fleming. I am debating between the 2. What made you go with the Fleming over the Mercer?

Thanks for any insight!

I have this bag! (black with gold chain) I got it a year ago and used it fairly often enough. It's roomy, easy to open and close and I love the pockets on both of the sides outside.

My main complaint is that after a while, the flap top bows and creases badly, no matter how hard you try to shape it or keep it nice and arched. So that sucks.. it ruins the nice clean lines. I wish the leather for that top part was stiffer so it maintains it's structure. But then again the soft leather is one of it's nicest qualities.. so yeah.. I don't know. Basically the leather is super soft and supple and buttery BUT thin.. so you lose structure after some use.
