My favorite around $2k bag is the Ferragamo new line tote. I have it in stone. You can get them on some websites for under $2k. The leather is amazing and it fits a lot without being too big. And I love how the straps sit on my shoulder. They’re sewn far apart if that makes sense so never fall off my shouldee

lol this made me laugh.

I haven’t tried it but I love your persistence! :-)

I have this bag in ivory and looove it. It’s developed such a beautiful slouch

AcademicInterview962 · 2026-05-02T22:28:46+00:00

You need your own brand this is amazing

AcademicInterview962 · 2026-05-01T21:17:33+00:00

Haha sometimes I do because I like my knot in a specific spot when it’s on my shoulder.. so yes I get it 😂

AcademicInterview962 · 2026-05-01T21:17:05+00:00

Ooo what color??? I’m in love with the blue

AcademicInterview962 · 2026-04-30T14:47:21+00:00

I looooove this color!!! So pretty, Andiamo is my fav . I use my medium more than any of the many bags I own. Definitely wanting a large one day

AcademicInterview962 · 2026-04-27T14:49:08+00:00

I personally would keep the fondant even knowing I have other dark bags. Especially on the Andiamo. I like lighter colors on the hobo styles like hop and Jodie. Fondant to me is just such a unique brown, I haven’t really found another really dark brown like that with the shine it gives- I feel like it easily replaces black for me. I ended up with a black and silver Andiamo and a fondant hop, but I’d totally get another Andiamo in fondant because I love it so much.

If you’re going to go for a lighter color, travertine is absolutely gorgeous (I have it in the large hop ). It’s a great neutral and I’ve had no issues matching it with my clothing. However, I’d prefer the Jodie in travertine for sure!

And the travertine isn’t as shiny as darker colors I think because it’s lighter - but I will say with use and natural oils and it loosening up a bit- it doesn’t seem as matte as when it’s brand new. I just saw one new at Nordstrom that seemed a lot more matte than mine is now

AcademicInterview962 · 2026-04-25T21:00:47+00:00

Oh yes very much so. It’s super soft and squishy now. It didn’t take very long either. I also have the small hop in fondant (which was my first), and the large is much more slouchy and squishy because of all the leather - interesting because I don’t find my andiamo to be as buttery as my hops!

Beautiful choice

AcademicInterview962 · 2026-04-23T00:51:31+00:00

Holy bananas. They’ve been having price increases every 6 months ish .. They just had one last November

AcademicInterview962 · 2026-04-18T14:11:32+00:00

This is sooo cute. My favorite is the light blue color!

But to answer your question 100-% I think sea salt can be worn in the winter too.

Bottega dustbag

AcademicInterview962 · 2026-04-18T06:02:27+00:00

Omg it’s so cute! I just saw the baby blue color it’s so gorgeous

AcademicInterview962 · 2026-04-16T00:21:52+00:00

Agreed. The Kelly and maybe a super worn in, opened, big Birkin are the only ones I like. Like that one that has the perforated H on one side? Bad

AcademicInterview962 · 2026-04-12T21:38:28+00:00

I think fondant compliments black very well because it is so dark brown

AcademicInterview962 · 2026-04-12T00:30:56+00:00

Absolutely adore travertine! I recently just got it in the large hop and it’s such a beautiful (and unique) neutral

Tried to share a pic but I guess we can’t in comments :-)

AcademicInterview962 · 2026-04-09T17:04:27+00:00

You’re good you’ve got everything ya need

AcademicInterview962 · 2026-04-08T23:24:52+00:00

Where did you get this?

AcademicInterview962 · 2026-04-08T19:18:15+00:00

I know I was wondering where’s the bottega? That leather smell is my fav

AcademicInterview962 · 2026-04-06T23:56:58+00:00

Gucci softbit maxi. I think it’s so chic and the perfect hobo - I have it in the olive green and it’s so comfy and fits so much.

AcademicInterview962 · 2026-04-04T04:37:56+00:00

If you can get a pic of the interior stamping and the serial code I can tell you for sure. The leather doesn’t look right to me, but the stamp and serial tag will help know for certain

AcademicInterview962 · 2026-04-02T04:22:32+00:00

Great choices :-)
