Yeah I'm probably leaning Dior right now, but haven't quite made up my mind yet until I see the bags in person! I've definitely ruled out the SDJ because it will probably look bulky on me, and I see it as more of a work bag. However, I was originally leaning more Prada due to the classic shape and ease of use. Do you have the double zip tote? Do you wear it on weekends as well? How has your bag held up, and how long have you had it for?

It's probably also worth mentioning that I live in Southern California and have a very casual style outside of work. As in, drapey top tucked into shorts, crew neck cardigan, silver-toned necklace and watch, and sandals/flats. I am 5'1" and 105 lbs max. I do favor larger bags, but it is quite easy for bags to overwhelm my frame. My top two priorities with this purchase are probably quality and versatility.

If anyone has recommendations on bags in this color family that might fit my criteria, please do share! :smile: :smile:

I have a pebbled leather (vitello daino), but one of my coworkers has two Pradas, and one is a small sized double zip. It's so cute and I can definitely see it going from work to play. If size and weight are criteria, perhaps you should carry both around in store for a bit?

I called ahead to the store and they're ordering the blue Diorever for me to look at, as it's a summer color and they no longer have stock in the store. I was hoping to postpone this purchase as I've been spending a lot on bags recently, but the color is just too perfect! There's a darker midnight blue for autumn, but I am looking for a bright cobalt type blue specifically. We will see!

I bought the Diorever in pacific blue Suede one week ago and I love it. The colour is inbetween midnight and cobalt blue :smile:

Gorgeous!!! How hard is the suede to care for?

Is that the medium or large size? Do you have any modeling photos by any chance? [emoji16]

Hi! I' am sorry for the late response...I am on vacation at the moment ;-) It's the large size but they also have it in medium (they had the medium in stock in my city and had to order the large one from Paris as this is from summer collection as well). Regarding maintainance and care...I am not sure because I got this one week ago but I think it 's not more delicate than smooth leather but I guess more than peppled leather. I guess there will be scratches but you won't see them as much. The only thing is that I won't wear the bag when it rains because of the suede. I also don't want to baby my bags so we will see...but as I saw this suede version I totally fell in love and couldn't resist. Also the colour is perfect to stand out from the croud but not too much...and it fit's with nearly everything :-)

Truly appreciate your thoughts! I just saw the pebbled leather medium version this week and it's gorgeous, but I plan to see it again next week before I make my final decision. I am now deciding between this one and a Celine belt.
