The PERFECT purse for me. It is all I have now and I have collected five in different colors. I absolutely love the mini Crossbody.

[@cheriheywood780]

I have this little beauty in cold brew and love it! I also have the medium size which I also love. Portland leather totes are such a classic bag to carry!

[@TheHeidibrooke]

I totally agree! I love the simplicity of an all leather bag that holds up! 🥰

[@Chrismiss1218]

You have the best reviews. Thank you! Very helpful!

[@emilyanderson5354]

I just bought the same bag in the pebbled black! Thinking about getting the coldbrew in a few months. So cute! Edit-ended up getting the coldbrew too! Just had too!

[@TheHeidibrooke]

I love the scent of the Coldbrew! Seems strange but the oils they use for that color are stronger. 🥰

[@Odebdo]

I have looked at these bags off and on and never purchased....seeing your cold brew pushed me over the edge so I purchased on yesterday....my first PLG purchase.

[@TheHeidibrooke]

Hi Debra! I’m so happy you got a Coldbrew mini! I know you will love it...and that smell! Enjoy your new bag and thank you for watching and commenting! 🥰

[@mysimpleintentionallife9899]

Beautiful bags-I am waiting on the cross body tote in cold brew and can’t wait now!

[@TheHeidibrooke]

Awesome! They are great crossbody bags and cold brew smells so good! Enjoy your new bag! 🥰

[@FranM6179]

I’ve been hoping you would do a review on this bag. I love this bag. Your dress is super cute with it too. Thanks.

[@TheHeidibrooke]

Oh so glad to hear this video was helpful! Thanks so much! I think I paid $11 for it at Ross. 😄 Thank you for watching and commenting! 🥰

[@debbys.8935]

You convinced me to try the mini tote in Cold Brew and I'm so glad that I did. I love it. The smell!! Yum. And the inside is so soft. I like the softer, more malleable leather. I added another hole further up the strap so I can wear it as a short shoulder. Just tucked the tail inside the bag. Thanks for the review.

[@TheHeidibrooke]

Great idea, Debby! I love switching from shoulder to crossbody too. I’m so glad you got one and love it! The smell is too good to describe!! Enjoy your new bag! 🥰

[@ahall6091]

Is yours like hers or more pebbled?

[@debbys.8935]

@@ahall6091 Mine is smoother so I'd say more like hers.

[@cheesim]

I just got a Cold Brew item now I want to get a tote to match 🤣 Cold Brew mini is so gorgeous 😍

[@TheHeidibrooke]

They are addicting, right? Coldbrew is sooo good! Thank you for watching and commenting! 🥰

[@JMitch-rr5kh]

I just ordered this tote in Grizzly. It’s my first Portland bag. I can’t wait.

[@TheHeidibrooke]

Grizzly is such a nice leather and has an amazing scent too! I love how pliable and squishy it is. Enjoy your new tote! 🤎

[@elainedemps9551]

Excellent review.

[@TheHeidibrooke]

Thanks so much, Elaine! 🥰

[@kathycarroll154]

Struggling to pick a color, all are beautiful. What is the color of your eclipse make up bag? It is beautiful

[@TheHeidibrooke]

Thank you Kathy! My eclipse is in Nutmeg. 🥰

[@jenniferosea]

Do you mind if I use your thumbnail as a picture for an ISO in one of the BST groups? 😊 I love how light that canyon looks compared to the others I’ve seen!

[@TheHeidibrooke]

Yes of course! 🥰

[@nicoledean7598]

Love this little bag, can't decide on nutmeg or coldbrew. Is this a heavy weight leather bag or does it feel lite.

[@TheHeidibrooke]

Hi Nicole! This is a very lightweight bag! Both Coldbrew and Nutmeg are great leathers. Both are super soft and slouchy from day one. I think nutmeg might be slightly more neutral but only slightly. Both are great! 🥰

[@nicoledean7598]

@@TheHeidibrooke Thank you!

[@olivianazareno6129]

I just wish PLG bags comes with longer crossbody straps…

[@TheHeidibrooke]

Hi Olivia! 👋 I believe they have an extender that can be purchased separately if you would like to add some extra length. 🥰

[@valeriehallmark6467]

Cute bags! Coldbrew is my PLG weakness😊 Where do you have bags listed for sale and do you show off your bags on Instagram?

[@TheHeidibrooke]

Thanks so much, Valerie! Coldbrew is so addicting lol. 🤤 I sell mostly on Poshmark at: posh.mk/4iF6qIi7Vgb And yes, I share on Instagram as well @leatherhappy. Thanks so much for commenting and watching. 🥰

[@annarose4828]

Thank you for sharing. I have a gfg purse and two pouches on order. Would you say which ones you like better. I read somewhere that gfg smell more leathery.l would love your opinion. Thanks again.

[@TheHeidibrooke]

Between PLG and GFG, GFG wins. Their leather is better. It’s more costly, but it’s worth it. You won’t be disappointed.

[@tamaralopez1156]

Yes I would love to know where you sell your bags too😊

[@TheHeidibrooke]

Hi Tamara! 🥰 Here is where I do most of my selling: posh.mk/4iF6qIi7Vgb

[@summersunsets13]

great review! does a water bottle fit inside?

[@TheHeidibrooke]

Thank you! 🥰 Yes, a water bottle will fit inside. 😊

[@alphabet4020]

Does the cold brew colored one leave dark marks on your light colored clothing ?

[@TheHeidibrooke]

Hi Maisie, I haven’t experienced any color transfer with Coldbrew.

[@maryscavone1618]

Is Kmm and Co. Still your favourite leather bag?

[@TheHeidibrooke]

Hi Mary! Their tan kodiak will probably always be a favorite of mine! I do have some other contenders now. Lifetime Leather Company makes an amazing mini tote with great pull-up leather. It’s nearly identical to KMM & CO’s tan kodiak leather. Also, I love Go Forth Goods saddle leather. 🥰👌

[@alphabet4020]

Do you think a mini will be able to fit a kids sweatshirt ? I have the medium and love it but it feels a bit big on me at times

[@TheHeidibrooke]

Hi Maisie, I think this bag might be a tad too small for that, possibly if you don’t carry much but I’m guessing it won’t snap with a sweatshirt on top. I could be wrong though because this little bag is surprisingly spacious!

[@ashtoncousins-3261]

What color hardware do they use? Is it brass or gold? I’m hoping to get a memoir tote in canyon soon 🥰

[@TheHeidibrooke]

Most of them are the antique looking brass I believe. 🥰

[@rosiegalati7562]

Hi, just stopped by to check out a video on the PLG canyon leather. i heard u say "inside outside trick" did u mean turn the bag inside out to get more pull up and for how long? i just received my bag and its very dark. thank u in advance.

[@TheHeidibrooke]

Hi Rosie! Thanks for watching. 🥰 Yes, you’re exactly right. You just turn it inside out and then turn it back to the right side. You don’t have to wait between flipping, but be forewarned, it’s a workout, lol. It will bring out lots of lighter colors in your canyon bag! It’s the most perfect bag for flipping. ☺️

[@rosiegalati7562]

@@TheHeidibrooke thank u so much for the tip. Love ur videos. 😍 have a great weekend. 🥰

[@rebeccapope4249]

Would you say it is softer and slouchier than KMM Cypress...which leather do you like better?

[@TheHeidibrooke]

Hi Rebecca! I’m not sure which mini you’re referring to but I’m guessing Coldbrew? It’s definitely soft and floppy but it’s not similar to KMM Cypress at all. Cypress is a super thick, smoother leather. PLG Coldbrew is thinner and pebbled. Both are very nice quality and have that slouchy, lived in look. 🥰

[@rebeccapope4249]

Oops, yes I meant the Coldbrew! Thanks for responding!

[@maryohmaryoh]

I just took the plunge on a Tote+4 mystery box ...living in a feverish state of PLG anticipation! 🤪

[@TheHeidibrooke]

That’s so exciting, Mary! I’ve never ordered a mystery box but I would love to someday! 🥰

[@maryohmaryoh]

@@TheHeidibrooke I got a unicorn tote! True red with tan handles in medium! It's very cool. :)

[@TheHeidibrooke]

@Mary B., that is so cool! I would probably never be that lucky!! Lol. Enjoy your unicorn bag! 🥰
