Re: Poll for preferred Roma 2

So far I have the black, blush, snake and espresso. I need the other 3, and also need them to make it in a dark wine/burgundy color. I love them all so much, don't think I could choose. Maybe black and snake are my current faves...

Re: Poll for preferred Roma 2

I have black and natural ostrich. Love them equally. I really wish I could have gotten a perfect blush bag.

Re: Poll for preferred Roma 2

Thanks for the answers and I look forward to more. I never planned on buying the Roma 2, in fact I was anti GILI. I think the really smart moves that the Q made to sell this bag was, after all the previous complaints, 1) listening to the customer and making adjustments to the design , and 2) EXTREMELY good choices and variety in the leather choices. When was the last time you could choose snake, glossy lizard, 2 shades of ostrich, metallic, and black and pink solid leather in one bag? It is pretty amazing. Lisa did a really good job selling the bag too. The video and all the choices, plus the many happy reviews here and on the item page customer reviews, convinced me. I almost bought 4 of them. I cancelled the TSV price, but rethought it, I just got sold, so I am waiting for the black and metallic...was most next tempted by the blush, natural ostrich and lizard. Really fantastic choice of leather, I'm sure most of the sales were customer buying more than one.

The thing I absolutely love about the blush is the leather. Not only is it the most perfect pink, it is really lush, soft, you just want to squeeze it because the leather has softened beautifully!!!! It's the most girly of all the bags and for that reason alone, I had to have it.

Combining all versions of the Roma, ivory ostrich, espresso (solid, non exotic), brown snake, natural ostrich, orange but they are all winners. Didn't get the others but the only choice I'd not want if I could have them all is definitely the metallic and possibly the blush and aubergine.

Nikalette, I was like you, I was anti Gili too. I read the reviews and threads about the last Roma 2, so when people starting getting excited about this new one, I thought they were nuts. It's also a bigger bag than I would typically carry. Seeing Lisa's initial presentation (I still have it on my DVR) and reading the reviews as they rolled in changed my mind. You're right, Lisa sold the heck out of this bag, and the reviews were mostly raves. Then I got it in my hands and that was that. Love. {#emotions_dlg.tt1}

Re: Poll for preferred Roma 2

My favorite is the natural ostrich. I purchased it the first go round. This time I purchased the blush (borrowed by one of my daughter's) and it is lovely. I am currently using the cream snake. However, I am really longing for the black. The pictures look so rich.

I already had the black and the natural ostrich; I bought the new metallic. I love them all and switch them out depending on my outfit.

Re: Poll for preferred Roma 2

I only purchased one - the black and I love it. I am considering the natural ostrich. I also really like and am considering purchasing "the espresso (solid, non exotic)" mentioned by stevieb - but isn't this the bag that has the problem with the handles cracking?
