Polene bags - camel or beige?

I’ve fallen in love with Polene bags since another poster shared them on another thread. Looking to buy one to replace my daily bag I use for work. Settled on the numero neuf style but undecided on colour. Love the look of the beige but unsure if it is too light to be hard wearing enough. The camel is pretty much the same colour as my current coach bag which is versatile but think a change would be nice.
Anyone seen Polene bags IRL with views on colour? The textured blush was also a contender but may get that in a different smaller style for use on weekends.

Polène | Bag - Numéro Neuf - Beige

The “Numéro Neuf” features an organic design that strikes the right balance between flexibility and hold. Its draped leather is held in place by hand stitching.

I have the neuf in camel. I was between the camel and taupe, but went for the camel as it’s a warmer, richer colour and it complements my colour palette more than the beige would. It’s a beautiful bag, and I use it quite a lot.

Thanks @notlucreziaborgia I’ve seen some content on YouTube and the camel looks lighter than the Polene website. Can I ask can you fit the shorter handle on the bag over your shoulder? It looks too short to do this but just checking.

You can! I suppose it does depend on the size of your arms/shoulder but it’s more generous than you think.
