I digress.
There was a point somewhere...
For the last three weeks I've been wearing a plain black tote bag (that I was given at fashion week, to add to my shame) as a make-shift 'sac', because I decided I HATE all my bags. Daniella said I should say I was 'making a statement... you know like a hipster' if I was asked about it- love her!
I've decided that next year I'll buy a new bag. I'm thinking of an investment piece, so out go faddish Alexander Wang type blogger's delight bags, anything over studded/zippered, or just generally overdone. Naturally a girl can dream about this,*swoons* and who wouldn't mind this, but I'm thinking something big, black and classic. I've narrowed it down to these, which are still going strong having been around for a few years:
Balenciaga Giant First
Balenciaga City
Mulberry Patent Bayswater
Thoughts (or suggestions)?

p.s The Alexa is a no-no.
The Balenciaga first is rather small. So not a good option if you usually carry a lot of stuff with you. The Mulberry bag is a classic, but I don't really like the patent leather or the design. I would go for the Bal city. Classic, but still a bit edgy. Goes with everything :)
ReplyDelete^No, giant first but thanks for tip, lol. I thought the same about patent, but I'm not 100% sold on the leather Bayswaters.

i like the 2nd one with the tassels...
ReplyDeleteAh I see. I thought 'giant' referred to the giant hardware and not the size.
ReplyDeleteHmmm, the 1st one appeals the most but I'm not crazy about any of them (for the money) tbh. I see you with something a bit funkier (although still classic) - maybe Miu Miu or Marc Jacobs. Will have a surf and see if I can find a pic of what I think is really you. xxx
ReplyDelete^ @WeShop- I actually thought about a miu miu matelasse! Marc jacobs has never been my bag (geddit?) Ok, that was crap!

I would go for the black city. It's the ultimate bag, would go with everything and can wear dressed up and down. The first is a smaller bag, the giant refers to the silver hardware. You can get the city with giant hardware but the studs are quite a lot bigger than on the first. Looking forward to seeing which one you go for :)
ReplyDelete^Thanks little miss. Great advice, I thought 'giant' referred to the size!
