I like the Pandora in theory, but when I've tried it on it never looks quite right. I think it could be difficult to style around since it needs to lay a certain way to look good.

keep the bal... tried this irl, personally, felt fugly. i think it looks better on men, though.

Ok, fair point. It didnt came across like that to me...sorry. I am obsessed with this bag right now

There are a few pictures of this guy rocking it...have a look.

I love Pandora. I love the scrumptious leather, I love how understated it looks. I agree however that this style can be a bit awkward. If I ever had this bag, i'd get the small i think.

i kind of like it, it's very different

I like it on the guy. I really do. I think maybe the bag is too masculine for me to think of it as a bag for women. But those photos look really good and the proportions really suit him.

I have to say I've seen this bag online and in store and was not drawn to it at all. Then one day I saw a girl carrying the medium on her shoulder and was completely blown away. The bag was slouching nicely and the leather looked beautiful. I have one Givenchy bag I absolutely love and can attest to the workmanship. And while I agree this bag may not be for everyone I do think it may be the perfect bag for some. ( I would love one myself, in a nice dark brown)

I like the look of the leather very soft but the single handle witht he exta zipper area looks hard to deal with...

I like the Pandora. I think it makes a statement. It's simple, yet unique. Kinda reminds me of when the Paddy first got huge. Simple, but different.

That statement kinda scared me hahahah...but unlike Paddy, this is not exactly an IT bag say compared to Nightingale or something.

I am utterly afraid of IT bags....

I would keep the Bal, personally. The Pandora is different but it looks like it would be awkward to carry.

Hi faith_ann! Thanks! I returned the Black RH City because I found my UHG Bal! I still like the Givenchy Pandora and will consider getting it soon.

Got one this fall from Barneys NY. Fantastic bag!!!! One handle works, as does the shoulder strap. Mine is black suede (rare) and really stands up.

I have the Pandora same color as on the image , it is an amazing color , the leather is so soft. I even prefer this leather than Balenciaga's . You can put a lot of stuff inside. It exists in 2 differents sizes : smalll and medium. In France it is 995 euros for small one and 1050 for medium one for the same kind of leather as on photo but the price varies for different kinds of leather.
