The first is more a messenger bag.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-i-really-want-a-neon-pink-messenger---help-me-pick#post-920778 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 14:12:21 +0000 Kristin L 920778@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ They both look pretty, But I think I like the 2nd better.&nbsp;<br /><br />I'm not a big neon person, but I think you could rock the socks off it! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-i-really-want-a-neon-pink-messenger---help-me-pick#post-920650 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 10:31:30 +0000 bj1111 920650@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ the first one looks like a student bag. &nbsp;not that there is anything wrong with that as long as that is what you wanted.<br /><br />the second looks more finished. &nbsp;it may ground your girly looks more than a "student-y" bag. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-i-really-want-a-neon-pink-messenger---help-me-pick#post-920631 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 08:05:15 +0000 Mander 920631@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the first one because it appears to have a zipper in the main compartment. It seems that any time I carry an open top bag I manage to kick it over and drop something either expensive or embarrassing, so I try to go for zippers when possible! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-i-really-want-a-neon-pink-messenger---help-me-pick#post-920626 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 07:14:13 +0000 goldenpig 920626@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The second one looks like it has cleaner lines and higher quality (The black line is uneven around the buckles in 1), and I agree the closure is more functional.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-i-really-want-a-neon-pink-messenger---help-me-pick#post-920591 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 05:22:54 +0000 lyn* 920591@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oops, I didn't notice I did it, Ceit. My bad. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-i-really-want-a-neon-pink-messenger---help-me-pick#post-920584 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 05:01:37 +0000 rae 920584@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Well since you already have a Cambridge, I vote second. If that isn't an issue, I vote the first. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-i-really-want-a-neon-pink-messenger---help-me-pick#post-920582 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 05:00:22 +0000 Anonymous 920582@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the second one. The neon is really cute!</p> <p>(As an off-topic, could we please not use the word retarded? I have friends and family with developmental and cognitive issues and this is admittedly a hot button issue for me) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-i-really-want-a-neon-pink-messenger---help-me-pick#post-920556 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 04:08:43 +0000 DonnaF 920556@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The second one.&nbsp; Even if the first one's buckles are just for show and hide a snap closure, the second one's closure is more secure.&nbsp; The top handle of the second is much, much nicer looking and no doubt stronger, and overall visually is much better looking IMHO.&nbsp; Had I not seen them side by side, I don't think I would have had such a strong preference.&nbsp; Interesting what an additional $20 will get you.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-i-really-want-a-neon-pink-messenger---help-me-pick#post-920545 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 03:49:46 +0000 lyn* 920545@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thanks! I have a Cambridge. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-i-really-want-a-neon-pink-messenger---help-me-pick#post-920543 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 03:41:08 +0000 CocoLion 920543@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The second one, pictures 4 plus, has an easier open-close mechanism. &nbsp;So I would go with that one. &nbsp;Although the first one looks very much like the famous Cambridge satchel. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-i-really-want-a-neon-pink-messenger---help-me-pick#post-920536 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 03:27:28 +0000 Thistle 920536@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer 2 as I think it will be much easier to get to your stuff. Buckles are a pain! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-i-really-want-a-neon-pink-messenger---help-me-pick#post-920534 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 03:24:57 +0000 Deborah 920534@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I like the second one best too.&nbsp; It's 'smarter' looking to me. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-i-really-want-a-neon-pink-messenger---help-me-pick#post-920533 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 03:22:45 +0000 Susie 920533@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the second one. I like the handle better and at first glance the first one looks like a droopy-eyed face </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-i-really-want-a-neon-pink-messenger---help-me-pick#post-920528 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 03:15:56 +0000 Sveta 920528@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Both are awesome, I prefer #2 just because 2 buckles are more bother than a single lock :-)<br />I would also to check the weight:&nbsp;these big bags can get pretty heavy...&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-i-really-want-a-neon-pink-messenger---help-me-pick#post-920521 Mon, 29 Apr 2013 03:10:40 +0000 lyn* 920521@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ So, I saw a lady with an awesome kick-ass neon pink messenger bag! Not only is it super awesome, but I think it will be super fun for a summer bag!<br /><br />(Alternatively, if it's really retarded, please talk me out of it).<br /><br />Bag 1 - $30: Pic #1 to #3<br /><br />Bag 2 - $50: Pic #4 to 6<br /><br />:) Which one should I get? I'm not too concerned with durability and things like that, I plan only to use it for one season. I do have a favorite, but I'll keep mum on it for now, as to not cloud your judgements.
