help me choose between these bags

Christine · Coach

Lol, I just voted and saw a perfect tie! I don't know how much help we're going to end up being, Smash!

Anyway, I voted lavender - I like the yellow too, but I like the shape of the lavender one a bit more, and it's such a pretty color.

zeitgeist4 · Gucci

I had a hard time voting.

I like the shape of the yellow better. I'm not a "yellow person," so I'm not really drawn the color of the first bag.

I love purple, but not that lavender color (or at least not for a bag).

Ultimately, I voted for yellow.

Elle · Hermes

I voted for the yellow - IMO it would be a more versatile color, suitable for near year 'round wear. The lavender is a little cotton-candy for me personally. I'd be concerned that it might not go well with the colors of your cooler weather items.

twinkle · Coach

oooh smash, i absolutely LOVE the purple. not as excited by the yellow. i think the purple is more fun and will provide a more interesting contrast to your outfits...

sorry to make this more difficult for you!!!

tri_sarah_tops · Marc Jacobs

Those are both great bags and I love them both. It's hard to choose but I think the purple one just pops more and I like the shape a bit more.

Collette · Chanel

I'm going with yellow, I think overall it's a prettier color and so very spring

Renee · Kenneth Cole

It's hard to decide... Personally I love the yellow color more, but the lavender bag's shape is more streamlined. Plus, lavender spells spring to me, while the yellow is more summer. Get them both, heh, heh

JoceyBaby23 · Gucci

I vote lavender. I like the shape and color better.

This is huge because I normally HATE anything purple.

alb · Marc Jacobs

I love them both but I think I prefer the yellow for 2 reasons. First, it will go with a lot more IMO. Second, I think the yellow is more hip, and the purple is more cutesy. They are both great bags though--and I do really like the shape of the purple.

honey · Gucci

yellow is my favorite color, so that's how i voted. but i think alb had a really good point about the hip versus cute aspect of the bags.

rlutz · Chanel

I love the lavendar one...

smash · Dooney & Bourke

thanks so much for the feedback everyone - all very good points!

i've decided to order both and see which i prefer after seeing them in person (and who knows... maybe i'll have to keep them both!)

:)

ditto!

scarlett · Marc Jacobs

i voted yellow, although the lavendar is very pretty too. i think the yellow kind of functions as a neutral, but a neutral with personality. good luck deciding when they arrive!
