Which of these is nicer?

[WaitingForSunday17]

Further to my handbag thread where everyone was very helpful, I am now trying to decide between these two bags for my best friend.
She's in her late 20s and has a professional job. I like the blue... but not sure if that's just my love of highly patterned things swaying me.
Which would you prefer to receive? She's been such a good friend this year so I want to get her something lovely.

The orgiginal ones or the latest tk maxx ones?!

I could get a gift receipt. I know she won't let me buy her anything if I go with her!

I am not keen on any of the bags you posted op. Desigual is a brand for 50+ not for 20 year olds. The Dune ones are a bit old fashioned looking. I like the Zara bags. It is always nice to have a few smaller bag options.

I am a major handbag lover but I would hate anyone to pick for me as I am so fussy and some things I like are just inexplicable (my DP just looks baffled when I try to explain)
I love the idea of a handbag shopping trip though so you could get her a voucher for TKMAXX- put it in a handbag themed card with a voucher for a coffeeshop too and you two could go on a shopping trip together?
If you are near a Zara- a voucher for there could work too.
You are a lovely friend- this is pretty much my dream present : )

Yes I guess I could get a voucher.
I wonder what Zara's returns policy is. I will have a look. I mean if she hates it then she can swap it. She doesn't have to tell me!

The zara ones are much nicer, if you wanted leather look on tk maxx, they have some nice leather ones within budget.

If you get a voucher make sure its somewhere that doesn't do kid stuff else the temptation will be to get something for the baby whilst she's there...

I love the blue one, wish you were my friend
