Very stressful handbag decision - please help!

I know, first world problem, but...

I've had a longing for a leather Furla hobo handbag for a long time, having coveted a colleague's a few years back. My brother is currently in NYC meaning I could get one cheaper than here. I want it big enough to throw my a5 diary/notebook into, wallet, keys, phone and half the housea few other bits and pieces. I think I've given up on wanting to put my laptop in my handbag. I need either a short strap or cross body. I'm torn between the Furla Liz and Furla Perla

Anyone want to make the decision for me?

I love a handbag thread too Smile
I've just received a handbag from eBay, all the way from America. I had the same bag four years ago and loved it but my dog, a puppy at the time, chewed it Angryand ruined it.
Anyway I never quite forgot it as I loved it so much and just recently one appeared on eBay - unused which is amazing as they don't make them anymore. It cost me a fraction of what it cost me new back in 2010 and its immaculate. Very happy! Grin

The liz in petrolio is gorgeous. Would love to see what its like irl.

KateSpadeAddict · 20/11/2015 22:52

Ooh what kind of bag is it shesells ?

UnDeuxTroisCatsSank · 20/11/2015 23:14

Op my vote goes to the Liz. Despite the cute name, the Furla Perla is terribly average

KanyesVest · 21/11/2015 23:39

Thanks for the brandalley link, I bought Liz in navy and a cashmere jumper. Won't ship until nearly Christmas but it'll be a nice new year treat Grin

((sigh))
Sorry, it's the first and second of all those pictures Blush

Liz arrive today, about three weeks ahead of schedule. She is a thing of beauty. The colour is gorgeous, more blue than navy, and soft as butter. I might cuddle her tonight. Also very impressed with Brand Alley, so thanks for the link.
