Morning After Mini- color conundrum

[Jenny Cadine]

Help me decide-- Rebecca M. MAM in Eggplant or Elephant? I prefer silver hardware but Eggplant is more striking--- or should I grit my teeth & see what turns up after Xmas?

 

[GUNG]

Id go with the eggplant!

 

[songofthesea]

i'd go with the eggplant, too...btw...gung? you are my rm hero!!!

 

[GUNG]

^

LMFAO!

Thank you!

 

[Jenny Cadine]

I guess I will-- I have an itchy credit card finger tonight. I found one for $400-- somebody stop me-- my Amex bill is going to wipe me out!!

 

[GUNG]

^Oh really! Where did you find a $400 RM MAM? Thats an excellent price!

 

[songofthesea]

gung...i am SO serious about that!!! i was running around the house (in sweats, no make up) and an old t-shirt with three RM bags hanging off of my limbs trying to make a decision!!!! i went with your advice about the MAM being classic, etc...and i'm just glad that i don't look like a handbag tree anymore...
*sigh*

It's at a site called Velvet Maven w/a grechen code. Should I go for it?

 

[GUNG]

Yep!

Thats a pretty good price! Just a little bit more than RM sample sale prices and I dont even think they had the eggplant at the SS. Go for it, and post pics, please!

 

[Jenny Cadine]

Oh, dear. Well I do get paid on thursday. After this I am sofa king banned. Until summer.

Eggplant!!

 

[TheGirlGotSoul]

The eggplant is a really lovely color, I'd go for that one!

 

[HitchcockBlonde]

Definitely the eggplant! I don't like the feel of the leather on the elephant bags by RM -- it's much tougher than the other colors for some reason. It's a really nice color though. But with eggplant you get the softer feeling leather AND a gorgeous striking color.

So that's my vote!

I purchased the Eggplant MAM from Velvet Maven myself but I returned it. It was much more brown than I had anticipated and the leather was much stiffer than my other MAM. HTH.

 

[Jenny Cadine]

Hmm. I don't mind if it's more brown-- is the RM glazed leather stiffer?
