3.1 Philip Lim Pashli satchel

[applecrumbleandcream]

Just landed myself a new job and I'm thinking of buying a Pashli as a really lovely early Christmas well done to me present. Plus the one I've been after for months has 40% at My Wardrobe.com off so it must be fate !! Has anyone got one and what do they think?

I have three

Two full size, one medium. I like them very much - I can fit a lot in, and computer / ipad well protected.

They are very structured and 'firm' though, no slouchiness at all. Hence good work bags, but less useful for everyday if your everyday includes bulbous things.

I want the fuchsia one now ...

Ah thank you. It sounds just right for me. The only thing I am concerned about is if the lock is a bit fiddly when you need to get into it quickly I've ordered it now so hopefully not.

I have one and it is a properly sturdy work bag. I love it, but the catch is a complete pain to fasten. I like that it's not an obvious brand. I think I'll have it forever - the leather is v tough, it feels indestructible.

I would normally say order to see as you can always return but tbh I wouldn't buy anything from my wardrobe now unless I was 100% sure I wanted to keep it.

[applecrumbleandcream]

Ah why's that? Have you had a bad experience?

[applecrumbleandcream]

How do you know that?

[mysteryfairy]

They've been discounting frantically all season and have started their Winter sale in mid November. Sadly I think they are almost certainly in trouble.

But no bad experience. My wardrobe was almost a literal description for me at one point, but they have lost brand after brand over recent years. The staff are all very sweet and helpful so very sad if this is the end of the site.

[applecrumbleandcream]

Ah that's a shame. Hope they don't go under before my bag comes in Thursday !!

[SWIMTHECHANNEL]

which one did you get?

[alfieandanniesmum]

I bought one after seeing it on this blog quite a few times. I have the large one and I have to say it's a pain - the cross body strap is far too long and the handles are too small!

[applecrumbleandcream]

It's arrived !!! I went for the medium electric blue Pashli. It's a beautiful colour and the perfect size for my daily stuff. I tend to use the long strap mainly. I didn't want the large as it looked huge. I am so pleased with it but will have to remember to look after it a bit better than I usually do
