Ha! That was funny. I'm not sure I could ever decide between the two if I had to? Both are clearly essentials in my book!

CB - I love that! Choo bags are so cool. There is one I really want on the bay right now, but the bags are so well made that they are super heavy. How's the weight on that one? It is a wonderful shade of brown and such a cool looking style.

Thanks suzi! I am loving it!!

And it's extremely lightweight, I mean surprisingly so! I was expecting it to weigh a ton, but it's as light as a feather!

How exquisite

I love the curved details on the front and the distinctive hardware. It also looks to be a very useful size.

Was it terribly expensive?

Thank you Jenova

Its sale price was around the same as some full price BE bags.

I am sooo thrilled with it!!

It is worryingly nice in the red and black versions too:

I also find myself rather drawn to this one:

If I had any money left I would probably go for the black one. It looks particularly striking.

The red one is really a great shade, but Jenova you have all of those lovely Mulberrys needing attention!

I was admiring rather than shopping. If I were buying I would probably be considering a Mulberry Daria or Medium Mitzy Hobo in Rouge Noir or Emerald.
