Do I need to take a cold shower? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-two-handbags#post-356906 Fri, 27 May 2011 15:52:47 +0000 Anonymous 356906@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love them both so much!!!! The first will be great with or without the strap, not grandma-ish at all. I adore the turquoise one! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-two-handbags#post-356879 Fri, 27 May 2011 15:32:39 +0000 wilson 356879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi April; my thoughts are that the first bag could easily become grandma-ish without careful planning. It is very refined and could furnish a lot of class to an already refined outfit but I think it could look stuffy with a casual outfit.</p> <p>The second bag is gorgeous for casual; I especially love the high-contrast red lining. I too prefer the more simplistic viewphoto without all the drapey stuff! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-two-handbags#post-356858 Fri, 27 May 2011 15:11:01 +0000 Mo 356858@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the 'blingifiers' is half of what the second bag is about. It does remind me of B Makowsky . . . The first bag, I really like the lock but the material is throwing me a little. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-two-handbags#post-356849 Fri, 27 May 2011 15:03:04 +0000 MsMary 356849@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE the first one! I'd treat that pattern like a neutral with no problem, I think.</p> <p>I like the second one okay but I'm not a huge lover of faux leather bags so I don't think I'd buy it for myself. The color is fun but again, I worry about whether it would look cheap in a synthetic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-two-handbags#post-356800 Fri, 27 May 2011 14:03:06 +0000 Tessera 356800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh, I love the first bag but I agree with Lisa that it is much more formal. It's a real statement bag, so would go well with neutral work wear. As for the second, more casual bag, it's a very nice pop of color, so I don't think removal of the bling would be a problem. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-two-handbags#post-356787 Fri, 27 May 2011 13:56:22 +0000 Lisa 356787@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bag #1 is ok, but not a wow bag to me. The print looks a tad like a heavy curtain pattern. I'm not sure it would be very versatile, seems more like a "wear with skirts and suits and silks" bag than a "jeans use on the weekends casual" bag. I like #2 more, without the dangles. However, once those are removed, will the bag be too plain (there's not much hardware on it without them)? It's the opposite of #1, it's a very casual bag and I don't think it will dress up well. What style of bag did you have in mind? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/opinions-on-two-handbags#post-356777 Fri, 27 May 2011 13:32:01 +0000 April 356777@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's not really a case of "I'm either getting this one or that one" -- I'm just interested to hear what you think of these bags I've been eyeing:</p> <p>For this one, I would not be using the shoulder strap. Is it grandma-ish?</p> <p><a href="http://www.endless.com/Vieta-JP-2869-Juniper-Satchel/dp/B00403NJK6/ref=sr_1_7/?cAsin=B00403NJJC&#038;fromPage=search&#038;qid=1306502868418&#038;sr=1-7&#038;asins=B00403NJCY,B00403NJA6,B00403NJAQ,B00403NJCE,B00403NJD8,B00403NJGU,B00403NJJC,B00403NJ9M,B00403NJ9C,B00403NJ92,B00403NJ8S,B00403NJSI,B003YXXQY2,B003YXXQYW,B003YXXQT2,B003YXXQQA,B003YXXQQU,B003YXXQJW,B00403NJ24,B00403NJ1K,B00403NJ1U,B00403NJ2O,B00403NJ2E,B003VPWUK4,B004I43VXW,B004I43TCA,B004I43UJ2,B004I43W2C,B004I43UJM,B004I43WCC,B004I43TB6,B004I43VXC,B004I43UJC,B004I43VO6&#038;asinTitle=Vieta%20Juniper%20Satchel&#038;contextTitle=search%20results&#038;page=1&#038;size=100&#038;node=241754011&#038;nodes=241754011&#038;brands=Vieta&#038;sort=relevance-fs-browse-rank" rel="nofollow">http://www.endless.com/Vieta-J.....rowse-rank</a></p> <p>Picture this one without its extraneous, dangling bling-ifiers, since I would surely remove them:</p> <p><a href="http://www.endless.com/Miss-Gustto-100515-Bonnie-Satchel/dp/B003F24YPC/ref=sr_1_2/?cAsin=B004H4X35O&#038;fromPage=search&#038;qid=1306502941576&#038;sr=1-2&#038;asins=B003F24YOI,B004H4X35O,B004H4X37M,B004H4X37C,B003F24YNO,B003F24YNE,B00403NJCY,B00403NJA6,B00403NJAQ,B00403NJD8,B00403NJCE,B00403NJGU,B00403NJJC,B00403NJ9M,B00403NJ9C,B00403NJ92,B00403NJ8S,B004J18IGO,B004J18IGY,B003FKI5L8,B003FKI6M6,B00403NJSI,B004J18ICS,B004J18ICI,B004J18ID2,B004J18IDC,B003YXXQYW,B003YXXQY2,B003YXXQT2,B003YXXQQU,B003YXXQQA,B004J18IFA,B004J18IEQ,B004J18IEG,B004J18IF0,B004J18IBE,B004J18IAK,B004J18IAU,B004J18IB4,B004H4X3C2,B004H4X3BS,B003YXXQJW,B00403NJ1K,B00403NJ1U,B00403NJ24,B00403NJ2O,B00403NJ2E,B003VPWUK4,B004I43UJ2,B004IEBO22,B004I43W2C,B003TO62VK,B004H4X4C6,B004I43WCC,B004I43VXW,B003TO62VU,B004H4X4E4,B004I43TCA,B004H4X4DK,B004H4X3FO,B004H4X3EU,B004I43TB6,B004H4X32C,B003TO65LM,B004H4X32M,B004IEBO1S,B004I43VXC,B004I43UJM,B004I43VO6,B004I43UJC&#038;asinTitle=Miss%20Gustto%20Bonnie%20Satchel&#038;contextTitle=search%20results&#038;page=1&#038;size=100&#038;node=241754011&#038;nodes=241754011&#038;brands=Miss%20Gustto" rel="nofollow">http://www.endless.com/Miss-Gu.....s%20Gustto</a>|Vieta&amp;sort=relevance-fs-browse-rank</p> <p>Thoughts? </p>
