I'm a big fan of the long straps as it allows me to be more "hands-free."

Just a tip on messenger bags though, if you're going to fill it up, make sure the shoulder strap isn't too thin or you'll be miserably uncomfortable.

Most of my bags are messengers, but this particular bag will always have a special place in my heart:

A J.Peterman Counterfeit Mailman bag :p

Ok, I couldn't resist this bag any longer. Our Cole Haan outlet received them in and I had an additional outlet coupon! As a longtime fan of flap messenger/convertible styles, this one ranks at the top for me. I really adore this bag and see it being something I can carry in all kinds of situations.

It's the aubergine CH Heritage Messenger. The true color is actually much darker and richer than these silly iPhone pics--I just wanted to show the overall bag and style.

And for those who love to keep their bags organized, this is wonderful because it has three distinct pockets plus an inside zipper pocket, multifunction pocket and outide pocket.

The messenger strap isn't attached right now but I love it and will use it often. I love how this bag can be carried on the shoulder, as a satchel or as a
messenger (and it looks GOOD carried as a messenger, too!).

What is the difference between this and the Hyde Park? They look the same to me. Is it the size?

I stumbled across this thread last night as I love messengers. I called the outlet and got the Hyde park one. With the 60% off and the extra 20% today it came up to around $150 with tax and shipping. Not bad for a $400+ Cole haan bag. I've owned Cole Haan shoes for a long time but this is only me 2nd bag. I love it! Hope I love it when it arrives!

Also, the Alexander Mcqueen faithful is on sale on nm.com. http://www.neimanmarcus.com/store/c...D0%26N%3D4294967029%26st%3Ds%26pageSize%3D160 Great markdown and I bought it to try. I must get an Alexa someday. Especially since its my daughter's name. I just cannot justify the price and must get it on sale!

I love the Hyde Park! What color did you get? Please post a pic! I need to see if my outlet has them. Was the extra 20% only for the holiday weekend, or is that deal still on?
