I pulled trigger on the Vela months ago and had to return it — I received two after getting one and requesting a fresh one, and both had leather that was sort of bubbling where the bag bends. I think depending on the color (I was opting for white) it might not be designed with longevity in mind. It seemed like every time I would bend it to open it, the folding would further damage the leather. Devastating, because I really do think it's the best bag out rn!

Omg! Well, I’m glad you shared your experience - thank you! That’s so annoying and disappointing! 😭😭😭
Truly, especially because I’m still obsessed. I’m wondering if the fabric or woven leather versions are more durable. I can’t let go!
Thanks for sharing, can’t wait for pictures!
I’ll share as soon as I have them 💖
I’m with your mom, sheer in all the right places would be a hit! 😉
I ended up with something a little sheer 😂🙈
I love that for you and for us later with the fab pics.
Of course 🫡💖
