I used the midi Charlotte the most last year, often paired with this belt. I am very impressed with the leather, it's so nice and soft. For me the combination of top handle and crossbody is the most comfortable and this is how I mostly use her. The short strap works as a shoulder strap but I notice that I automatically switch to top handle.
Today it's raining and it feels like a good day for an autumn bag.
There are my two Strathberry handbags. The midi Charlotte was my most used bag last fall. I love the supple leather, the color and size. It's spacy but not bulky. I haven't had a chance to use the mosaic yet, but can't wait to do that.
I don't have another bag that I wanted to buy but I see that I am more and more drawn to the taupe color so perhaps I will add another midi Charlotte.
Looks like Strathberry will release a new handbag soon. I like that it's woven but I would love to have the top handle, shoulder strap option. What do you think?
My Mosaic arrived today 😍 Till now, I resisted the temptation to get a suede bag due to reviews about how difficult it is to maintain suede. I liked this color so much that after some thought, I decided to pull the trigger. Not disappointed 😀. The color is a very nice navy, though from the photos on Strathberry's website I thought it would be more sapphire. I am adding a few photos inside and in daylight to show the difference. This is my first mosaic and it looks like it'll fit all I carry and I'll have some spare space.
Strathberry uses FedEx to deliver here, and last time, I had a terrible experience with FedEx. This is one of the reasons I was reluctant to order again, but this time all went well. Strathberry shipped yesterday and I received it today.
I am not going to wait for fall to use the bag, I'll take it out as soon as it fits with the rest of my outfit.
A few days ago I saw the new color of Mosaic bag and I love it. I don't need any bags, and as this is suede I have some concerns but I am pretty sure that this is going to be my next purchase.
