The lilac colour is beautiful. I have a wallet but I need to warn you it can get dirty easily and it's kind of difficult to clean. You'll need to be extra careful with it especially the handles.
I saw you post the bag on TPF. Do you have clearer pictures of your bag? It seemed like it was really shiny cause of the age. Most lilac bags I see are still a light purple babyish color whereas yours was a bit gray. Can you take some more pictures? If they're really this gray color then maybe you can return it to the seller cause I totally understand how you would be sad over it.
