I saw a beautiful version of the famous Valentino Rose handbag yesterday but it was vegan (manmade) and in blush. I had to touch it like five times to convince myself it was not leather.
It's obviously a knockoff but I'm not sure it is a copy as I have not seen the V bag up close.
Either way, I really liked it but didn't buy it.

If I was to buy it ($30 at a consignment shop that I have credit at) would blush even be a good color for me to add to my handbag collection (it's kind of large and I only wanted to add color and no black or neutral) ? I wear mostly black, charcoal/grey, brights such as pink and green and blue. I own nothing really pastel except a few cream and gray tops. No peach, no mint and won't be adding those in.

Talk me in or out of it please - I am just obsessing on it but it's a total impulse. Maybe I should just avoid - I have never bought a knockoff.

Pictured below are the real Valentino Rose and another Valentino bag but in blush. I'd say this knockoff bag is halfway between the two pictured in color.
