This bag totally works for everyday in YOUR lifestyle. However, Sarah makes a great point, matte is just as fab. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-stop-second-guessing-this-purse#post-66738 Fri, 22 May 2009 07:21:28 +0000 Louise 66738@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Michelle wish my other half had come that far, I still can't get him out of tapered leg jeans and horizontal striped tops not good with his build at all arghhhh x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-stop-second-guessing-this-purse#post-66710 Fri, 22 May 2009 01:54:30 +0000 Chris 66710@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Chiming in late - I like the red bag. He is just not in tune with patent lol.</p> <p>White or cream would be a fabulous neutral - Angie did a spring accessory blog post on that shade bag. I know it is hard to find the perfect one - I have been searching for a non-patent gray or cream bag for months (but I don't do online so only randomly in stores.). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-stop-second-guessing-this-purse#post-66705 Fri, 22 May 2009 01:36:21 +0000 Michelle 66705@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, ladies. I'll likely keep wearing it for every day but also find a pretty white or cream( which is best?) option in case I'm worried about clashing. Loulou, you're wquite right, trusting the boyfriend for accessories is not the way to go! He's come a looooooong way from his cords and henley tee days, but accessories are beyond his expertise. :)<br /> Sarah: A purple bag! I'm so copying that for the winter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-stop-second-guessing-this-purse#post-66655 Thu, 21 May 2009 19:11:04 +0000 merry77 66655@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it for everyday </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-stop-second-guessing-this-purse#post-66654 Thu, 21 May 2009 19:06:30 +0000 Sarah 66654@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have you tried crinkle patent? I personally like your red bag, but just in case you are also questioning the shiny, maybe try the more matte option?<br /> Also to me, red just seems more evening (this coming from the girl who has a white bag, a purple bag, and a black bag) so maybe that's part of the hang up? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-stop-second-guessing-this-purse#post-66653 Thu, 21 May 2009 19:02:59 +0000 Anonymous 66653@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks great in the pictures. Enjoy. Maybe your boyfriend was just pressed to come up with an answer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-stop-second-guessing-this-purse#post-66644 Thu, 21 May 2009 18:45:36 +0000 Louise 66644@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The colour looks gorgeous, i'd have no probs using it everyday. I love bright bags i think they add a shot of colour- (never trust a man's view on the specialist subject of bags LOL) x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-stop-second-guessing-this-purse#post-66568 Thu, 21 May 2009 10:00:58 +0000 Michelle 66568@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>First of a series of questions coming from me in the next few days. This forum is completely fantastic, but now all my perfectionist instincts have found an outlet and you poor guys are on the receiving end. </p> <p>I'm the kind of person that tries not to change bags every day. I simply don't have time to keep fussing with it. Of course I'll change it up for certain occasions or if my every-day bag is just dead wrong with an outfit, but I do prefer to have a flexible bag that can go with me to the grocery store, to work or to dinner out. I've always thought a red bag would be fun for every day, so I bought this red patent one a couple of weeks ago. I know it's a nice shade of red, but I'm wondering if the shine of the patent makes it a bit too much for true day-to-day vercitility. My boyfriend, who wore nothing but beige and grey before I intervened, dismissed it as "too shiny," but obviously I needed some more enlightened opinions. If this looks obnoxiously bright or glossy, do just let me know and I can reserve it for occasions that call for a splash of colour:<br /> <a href="http://s709.photobucket.com/albums/ww100/flowerstrewn/YLF_pics/?action=view&#038;current=Jeansandteewithjacket.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s709.photobucket.com/al.....jacket.jpg</a></p> <p>Apologies for the old pic, but it served my purpose. </p>
