handbag question
Permalink Closed


I have been looking for a lavendar colored handbag.  I am just obsessed with finding one.  I am cheap when it comes to handbags and I ran across this one on    F21 website last night.  It is described as being the color "mauve". On my computer monitor, it looks lavendar.  Has anyone seen this IRL?  I am just wondering if it is more pink or more purply.  Unfortunately, I don't have an F21 close to me to go look.  Thanks.

I haven't seen it IRL, but it looks more mauve than lavendar on my monitor (mauve, with a hint of lavendar). It is very cute though.

It comes off as lavender on my monitor. FF21 is so hit or miss, the actual bag could look different depending on which batch it is anyway. I like the shape & style of it though. I'd give it a try and order hoping for the best.

I went ahead and ordered it.  If it is not the right shade I will just return it.  Thanks.

 It should be interesting to see what color is turns out to be.  If it is not lavendar, I am sending it back. disbelief

I don't know what your budget is, but if that one doesn't work out, I really like this one from Steve Madden.  It's $88, but there are always codes!

Thanks everyone. I ended up getting the F21 bag, but when it arrived, it was too dark a purple. I am still wanting some very light lilac.
