I recently purchased a Givenchy mini antigona in oil blue (or petrol color some people say) on an instagram store @legaleriesusan (I know, I know what was I thinking??) but the seller has a reputable sheet of selling authentic stuff and I did not see one complain and the bag has a Reebonz invoice so I was quite confident about buying there. It came very fast (about 3 days) from Surabaya, which usually takes around 4 to 5 days. I fell in love with the color and the leather smell is not too overwhelming, which is good.
Despite the "mini" title, it holds plenty of stuff. I was able to fit my Fuji X100T camera comfortably along with my Ferragamo small wallet, a power bank, a scarf, and a 300ml water bottle. Not to mention knick knakcs like my lipgloss, lipstick, my Ticktack, small tissue, and a hand sanitizer. (Size is 28cm x 22cm x 8cm).
You can wear it on your shoulder with the long strap, cross body, or just on the top handle. I like it best as a shoulder bag with the long strap altho the strap does slide often. It wasn't too comfortable as a crossbody (i'm short only 156cm but the strap was on the shortest length, didn't want to change it because I read in purse forum of people tried to change it themselves ended up ruining the studs) or on the crook of my arms.

The leather is goatskin so yes this one is the grained leather. I feel the smooth a.k.a the calfskin is too fancy with the gloss. The goatskin is said to be more structured but I find the leather to be soft enough and actually easy to mold. I don't have any problem with scratches after 5 days straight of using it. Water doesn't seem to have many effect too. I spilled mineral water a little on my bag and wipe it right away. No marks visible. Altho I haven't tried using it under rain. I don't baby my bags but I'm not careless either.
Well I hope you find this useful! This will be my last handbag purchase until my next birthday since I had 2 big purchase this year already. Wishing everyone a great weekend :)
