Talking Bubble Gum or Magenta?

I have been on waiting list for a Bbag in Bubblegum but when I saw the color in person. It is a bit pale to me. Anyway, I love pink and don't much into purple shade.

Magenta looks better in person but the color tends to be mixed between purple and pink.

Which one you like better? I need a quick comments ,please.

Thanks a lot!

I like both, but all the magentas I've seen are very very veiny, so I think it depends also on the kind of leather you like.

Personally I think the Magenta has more depth to it than BG. From what I've seen most of the BG have smooth leather and the magentas are more veiny.

Wow! I had the opposite reaction to the BG! I think it is pretty dark. I was even wondering if I rec'd the Magenta by mistake! I was hoping it would look more like the pics of 05 BG.

Is it possible that the BubbleGum bag you saw in person was a lighter shade than most? I know that different dye lots can vary ... ?

I thought i would like the magenta more. But after seeing it IRL, i fell in love with the BG. The BG i saw was a very saturated pink. Not so much a light pink. Also, the magenta was really veiny and i didn't like it.

I'd love a Magenta Day with GSH, but the "leather" is the issue.

Magenta ROCKS with GSH.....I saw it in person and fell in love.....
