She is english, lives in semi-country, doesn't work but used to be finance professional, three kids, dogs, dressed casually but appreciates nice things, doesn't spend money on herself but does on the house and kids.
I think the safe choice is the mulberry bag which I can see is a nice bag but I find a little bit dull. But I can see can fit in with a casual country life style. I'm sure she would be pleased with it. I wonder in the back of my head whether she already has a battered old brown one.

The prada I think is a bit edgier a bit more interesting, a funkier colour - I would be more pleased with it but then I dress up and go out to work so it might just fit with my lifestyle a bit better than hers. I feel that it is a bit more spoiling and I want to spoil her. But I'm worried she might think it is a bit flashy.

What do you think? Btw she loves blue - I'm happy with the colour choices. Would love to canvass votes just as to which I should get...
Thanks!

Def the Prada one the mulberry is boring and would be perfect for someone in finance which she no longer is in! The Prada is lovely!

Prada.

You could post in Style and Beauty too.

You can report your thread and ask MNHQ to move it, but it'd be wuicker to just re-post, TBH.
