I'm finally ready to get a new bag, and I can't decide which to get.. I'm torn between the Acorn Criss Cross Lindsey or the Aubergine Gathered Lindsey... What are the pros and cons of each? Is one style better than the other? Any help would be appreciated

Well it really depends or your taste. I have them both in Sophia and criss cross is stiffer, not a soft leather which I personally like. Aubergine is very soft, but you have the risk of the pleats becoming undone

They are both pretty but I prefer the color of the Aubergine.

Another vote for aubergine :)

There will always be other brown bags. You don't always see shades of purple that pretty

What would go with your clothing more? I am one that likes to coordinate with colors. The purple would be really awesome for fall/winter but the acorn could be used year round.

Aubergine is TDF.

Thanks for all your help! Ill do a reveal tonight once I've decided :-)
