I love them both- no help! Let us know which you go for Smile.

I liked the lighter colours but worry of transfer colour from clothes?

First in red. I think a small bag should be more fun. It’s not really for everyday practical is it!
I have a very light bag and yes some clothes do transfer colour to it!

Interested in this thread?

I'd buy a river island one then book a holiday with the rest :)

I’ve always bought expensive bags in dark colours for that reason. Decided to get a mulberry in a light coral/peach colour for summer this year, wore it to work once and somehow got big black marks on it. Didn’t notice til I got home...omg that was a horrible ten minutes until I managed to clean them off! So I’ve learnt my lesson, I think I’m going to stick to the darker colours as I don’t like to baby my bags, I like to use them often and get my money’s worth.

I am going to get one in a mushroomy-taupe colour though, as I’ve had an Anya Hindmarch in that colour for years and it still looks brand spanking new. It’s a great colour and goes with everything.

Ninkaninus · 02/05/2019 10:57

Agree on red being a great option - another great colour that actually goes with a surprising number of colours.

SansasSnatch · 02/05/2019 14:29

Ok I’m back! I’m on holiday in Bologna atm and if any of you have been I’ve just done the 666 porticoed walk. KNACKERING is not the word. Now sitting in Simoni eating Bresaola and drinking wine. Hopefully the LV shop will be open - most shops are almost always closed it seems Grin

Scrap the bag. Buy all the meat and cheese

SansasSnatch · 02/05/2019 14:34

Oh and so the story is - DH gets a football season ticket every year so I get the same amount to spend on what I want .

I want to be where you are!!

Envious of your plans to buy an LV. I have so many bags on my wish list that it will take me a while to work my way round to buying one at that price. I’ll probably become some kind of anti-materialistic, minimalist person before I manage to save that much, too! Grin

Good luck and hope you find the shop open! You might also find that neither of the bags really speak to you when it comes down to it - you might find something else that calls your name!

Ninkaninus · 02/05/2019 14:41

And I must say it really cheers me to hear of the arrangement you and your OH have regarding season tickets and equal spending for you, for something you love- absolutely how it should be! Enjoy treating yourself!

DianaPrincessOfThemyscira · 02/05/2019 14:44

I prefer the branding thing on the first but the stitching on the second. I’d go for a different colour as well, I don’t like black much.

I too am green with envy at your set up!

SansasSnatch · 02/05/2019 14:45

At least my bags win every time!!

SansasSnatch · 02/05/2019 14:47

I agree about black - sometimes it can be too harsh I think. I’ll wait till I see them. Hope they’ve got them it’s not a massive store

Feeling much more relaxed now after my walk although my trusty Birkenstock’s have given me a blister on the ball of my right foot. Never happened before and I’ve had these years!!

Ninkaninus · 02/05/2019 14:50

You should not have to justify it, and it really irks me when people get sanctimonious about spending on something that makes you happy. But the hypocrisy and the inherent misogyny of it (how often do people berate men for spending on football tickets, or cycling and gear, or on other expensive hobbies or interests??) irks me even more.

So good on you, and on your other half, for coming to an equitable and absolutely fair arrangement.

SansasSnatch · 02/05/2019 14:53

Hear hear @Ninkaninis

Anyway, having looked again, I’d actually go for the first one. But it’d definitely be in red for me.

I’m partial to the chevron quilting so went for that to begin with, but I think I’d get a YSL clutch for that instead.

LegoPiecesEverywhere · 02/05/2019 15:05

The first one

Teddybear45 · 02/05/2019 15:05

Have you also looked at chanel? They have a killer bag in this style / budget.

SansasSnatch · 02/05/2019 15:06

I do like the red but I have a mulberry lily in red (it’s not a true red but I can’t remember the exact name)

I need to see them
