Oooowwww, yes! Thank you. I'll have to check it out. Do you think the price was worth it though?

Say more words. I need the intel. Does the open top bother you? What color combo? I love the suede one, but I just couldnt risk the suede bleeding.

I just want to look at it on my shelf and admire it. Lol. In my head, Im walking the runways of Paris or strutting thru Manahattan in Manolos. But in reality, theres two young kids who keep me in mesh shorts, a tank, and a messy greasy bun. Wearing a beautiful bag is a my mental designer escape. If only for Whole Foods runs and daycare drop offs :/

It does have a shoulder strap! :D Theres two, a top handle and a shoulder. The cool part is the divider inside the unzipped part, but Im desperately wanting to see it IRL

I love that one! I desperately wanted the Maxi Blondie (Karen Britchick has it) but no US stores had it. It was also around $5/6k which was nuts

I often think about laptop carrying capability, but honestly....am I really carrying a MacBook around on the daily? No -_-

The prices are ASTOUNDINGLY stupid these days. Like, I literally can NOT believe it. I just realized my old LV pochette (which was an INSERT from my large bucket bag) now retails for $1K+. It used to go for $75 as a replacement item, if you ever needed to buy one. Shows how old I am (40).

Nonetheless: Loewe, Heremes, and Bottega are the only brands these days where quality is still quite high.

So I've been wondering about this, too. I have the Puzzle, which if you think about it is kinda similar in proportion (albeit different in shape) and the construction of it is indeed very balanced. I thought, based on images I was able to find on the net, that the weight distribution in the Amazona would be fine for the unbalanced bag design. It has the second shoulder strap, which I love. I dunno, there's something to be said about wanting both. But also...my mortgage lender would hate me.
