Here are the pictures:</p> <p>Front:<br /> <a href="http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk271/JuliaYLF/new/bag/bag016.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i282.photobucket.com/al.....bag016.jpg</a></p> <p>Side:<br /> <a href="http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk271/JuliaYLF/new/bag/bag017.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i282.photobucket.com/al.....bag017.jpg</a></p> <p>On her shoulder:<br /> <a href="http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk271/JuliaYLF/new/bag/bag013.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i282.photobucket.com/al.....bag013.jpg</a></p> <p>When shopping with my sister, I picked up a Kathy bag in mustard color myself. I loved it in store but after wearing it two days in a row, I'm not sure if it's a keeper. What do you think?<br /> <a href="http://i282.photobucket.com/albums/kk271/JuliaYLF/new/bag/bag011.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i282.photobucket.com/al.....bag011.jpg</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-to-choose-a-tote-for-my-sister#post-40472 Wed, 24 Dec 2008 13:53:14 +0000 Julia 40472@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Angie and Ana for the suggestions! We do have Dillard's and all the stores you mentioned so we'll have lots of choices.</p> <p>Inge, thanks for the comment! I'll report back what we get. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-to-choose-a-tote-for-my-sister#post-40463 Wed, 24 Dec 2008 12:47:13 +0000 Inge 40463@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Julia</p> <p>Great picks! I really like the idea of a splash of colour (like the brownish red bag) with the colours your sister tends to wear, but of course that's a matter of personal preference.</p> <p>How lovely that you'll be able to go shopping together. I'm sure you'll find a beautiful bag. Keep us posted? And have fun shopping of course! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-to-choose-a-tote-for-my-sister#post-40437 Wed, 24 Dec 2008 01:37:07 +0000 Ana 40437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd recommend Nordstrom, or Macy's. Dillard's (if you have one), or J.C. Penny's too. Oh, also check out TJ Maxx or Marshall's, because I know they carry Hype bags sometimes, and you can get them on a really good deal. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-to-choose-a-tote-for-my-sister#post-40432 Wed, 24 Dec 2008 01:23:50 +0000 Angie 40432@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Clever, Marianne! </p> <p>The totes are all great. It really depends on your sisters style and preferences. I personally like the Steve Madden best and the Donati second best. Try Nordstrom and Macys stores for after Xmas bargains. They have GREAT bag selections at the prices you’re looking for. Happy shopping! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-to-choose-a-tote-for-my-sister#post-40405 Tue, 23 Dec 2008 22:29:50 +0000 Julia 40405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks a lot Marianne! That's much better!</p> <p>I think that light brown or tan would work for my sister but I'm not sure if she's adventurous enough to go with yellow or other bright colors. She'd be fine with cream but I'm worried it is too light for a year-round bag especially with Toronto's long winter.</p> <p>I sent these links to her, she likes the Via Spiga Talia Tote the most too. However she's a little hesitate to buy it online. She's coming to visit me after Christmas and we'll go shopping. What stores would you recommend us to hit to find similar bags? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-to-choose-a-tote-for-my-sister#post-40403 Tue, 23 Dec 2008 21:48:01 +0000 marianne 40403@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was able to see the bags if I click on the link and then copy and paste the non-highlighted part. I think these links should work:</p> <p><a href="http://womens-accessories.smartbargains.com/go.sb?pagename=prod&#038;prodid=1111500140" rel="nofollow">http://womens-accessories.smar.....1111500140</a></p> <p><a href="http://womens-accessories.smartbargains.com/go.sb?pagename=prod&#038;prodid=1111500142" rel="nofollow">http://womens-accessories.smar.....1111500142</a></p> <p><a href="http://womens-accessories.smartbargains.com/go.sb?pagename=prod&#038;prodid=1111496708" rel="nofollow">http://womens-accessories.smar.....1111496708</a></p> <p><a href="http://womens-accessories.smartbargains.com/go.sb?pagename=prod&#038;prodid=1111496548" rel="nofollow">http://womens-accessories.smar.....1111496548</a></p> <p><a href="http://womens-accessories.smartbargains.com/go.sb?pagename=prod&#038;prodid=1111501033" rel="nofollow">http://womens-accessories.smar.....1111501033</a></p> <p>I like all the bags you posted, and I think it's mostly a matter of preference.... for example I like the cross-body bag because of the strap, and I like the Via Spiga bag shape. My main thought is about the color - do you really want one of those 3 colors if she already wears them a lot? Would you consider cream or yellow or tan? Like I said, it's a personal thing, so it might not be an option. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-to-choose-a-tote-for-my-sister#post-40379 Tue, 23 Dec 2008 17:07:25 +0000 Angie 40379@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh no!
