Default Purple Reissue

So I just bought the purple reissue, but I don't know if I should keep it. Those of you who have one, what do you where it with? Can it be worn during the day? What color shoes do you wear it with? I just am a little confused.

I think you should keep it. I don't have one, but patiently awaiting the arrival of my dark red 225. It's a limited run bag and you may really regret letting it go later on.

As to what to wear with it, I think it's perfectly okay for daytime. It's a great bag for jeans as well as dresses IMO.

I know it's not the metallic reissue, but I love how Kirsten Dunst wore her purple croco bag with her red chanel dress here. Imagine with the purple reissue!

There are a few threads about this very same thing. I think if you do a search you will find the one that's like 6 pages long.

^ilvecocochanel, if I were in your position, I would get the color I want and compromise on the size. If I hadn't been able to find the 225 red I know I would have gone for the 226 red instead of getting a different color.
