Thanks! I'm glad it was helpful!

Apologies for the late reply. Chalk is a light grey in person. I wish they offered a true white color as an option.

lol I ended up selling the bag on Poshmark since I did not carry it as much.

Thank you! Sorry for the late reply. Given the larger rectangular shape I doubt it would fit an iPad mini. It doesn't even fit a continental wallet.

🙌🏻 They need their water lol

So true. I ended up selling the bag since I didn't carry it as much.

Hi@@whatjesswore . Do you mind elaborating on your experience with the bag? I am planning to buy a polene cyme but haven' t been able to make a call on the size.

Hi Tia, I'm very sorry for the delay in my response. The rug is this one from Amazon. The exact color and size I have is linked: rstyle.me/cz-n/fya2rurrke (affiliate link).

@@whatjesswore thanks a lot!!

@@AORKdesign you're welcome!

My pleasure!

I hope you like both of them! Their wallet is nice as well even though I didn't review it here. :)

This one is the chalk color. Looks like it had a light gray cast to it.

I actually have not worn denim in a long time. I wear a lot of dresses in the summer. It is a lighter color so color transfer is always possible if you wear darker denim or a new wash that still "bleeds". Soaking in a vingar mixture might help to prevent color bleeding although I have not tried it myself.

As a lazy dresser myself I found the chalk color and the curves of the bag doesn't really fit my style/summer wardrobe. To be honest I'm leaning towards selling my Tonca bag on Poshmark. I prefer my Celine Pico belt bag for example so I would love if I could get a similar neutral color bag for the summer. I also like my Ecru colored Cuyana Mini backpack although the magnet on the magnetic flap could be stronger.

@@whatjesswore what made you say it doesn’t fit your lifestyle? Is it too formal looking than casual?

@@chelsied7138 Yes perhaps too formal. There's something about the curved shape and also how the bag sticks out a bit that always seems "off" when I try it on with a lot of my outfits (summer dresses). I end up not carrying it. :( They also came out with more colors after I ordered chalk so perhaps a different neutral color would have been more versatile/easy to match than chalk. I really wish they had stores here in the States where we could try on the bags because I've eventually sold a lot of the Polene bags I've purchased.

@@whatjesswore chalk is like off white? What do you think about taupe?

@@chelsied7138 chalk has a light grey undertone to it. The taupe color looks nice.

You're welcome

Sorry for the delay in responding. Due to the folds in the Cyme mini the inside holds a lot less than the LV Neverfull MM (which I also own in damier ebene).

@@whatjesswore ok thanks a lot

You're welcome! The Tonca would not fit any books unless they were smaller than a continental size wallet which is highly unlikely.

Thanks for the request. This is the Cyme Mini. Only the larger size fits a laptop. This one fits the essentials and I'll try to share what I put in mine in another video unless I can somehow update this video.

The strap is from an old Zara bag.

Hi Mirjam, It's from Amazon. Here is the exact affiliate link (it doesn't leak): rstyle.me/cz-n/dr7nidrrke

I really like the size for essentials and the style a lot but it's not the most versatile bag in my collection due to the unique shape and design. It doesn't work with some athleisure outfits for example so I'm reaching for my other bags instead. I don't need another small black bag but I think that classic black would have been a lot more versatile for how I typically dress than the chalk color.

@@whatjesswore Thanks for the info! Ah, I'm looking for an everyday and functional crossbody bag that I can bring out for more casual settings and have been eyeing this bag in taupe.

@@steph4633 The taupe color looks so nice and I was considering it before I decided on the chalk color.

As in the country

Their bags are made in Ubrique, Spain.

Thanks! Yes it is adjustable. I provided the measurements for the adjustable strap in the video description.

My pleasure. I'm glad you found it helpful! :)

I'm sorry to see that they're sold out in select colors now. I wanted the taupe color but it sold out so then I ordered black. I'm not super attached to my backpack and I have a lot of black bags so I might list mine on Poshmark if there's interest. I've been super lazy to list though so feel free to message me privately @whatjesswore on Instagram.

@@whatjesswore Hi! Did you ever end up selling this bag? If not, I'm interested!

@R M Hi, thanks for your interest! Update 6/24: I listed and sold the bag on Poshmark today.

I have a 7.5 inch (19 cm) wallet and it fits snug with the snaps closed. I hope that helps!

Hi Alice! I decided against the textured version based on this review: www.temporaryhousewifey.com/temporaryhousewifey/2020/3/11/unsponsored-polene-numero-un-nano-bag-review. I don't regret getting the smooth leather but I do wish I was more careful with it. I do wish the bag was a little bit bigger but the mini size is what makes it really cute and lightweight.
