I have several handbags, but I am relatively new at collecting. I have been watching several websites and have cautiously purchased new additions.

One of my recent additions is the Gryson Clio in chocolate. I know that she is a bit dated by now, even though the Gryson website still has it listed.

But I have been basically, purchasing what I believe to be good buys and styles that I like, but now that I have been reading several of the posts here, I am wondering if I am approaching this whole handbag thing correctly.

What are your thoughts on this bag and is it appropriate for a late 40's woman.

I like the bag very much, and don't think it's dated or inappropriate for you at all. I buy what I like, try not to get caught up in the craze, which is hard here at tpf. I bought 4 HH bags this summer and sold three of them, kept one. Now I try to be a little less impulsive, lol. There are definitely HOT bags, like Rebecca Minkoff, Gustto, Tano - and you should decide if they are right for you. When buying, look for good prices, coupon codes, and also RETURN POLICIES! I just got burned with a huge restocking fee from a website I stupidly ordered from. Have fun!

I was going to get a Clio and decided it was too similar to my Tutu which is basically the same with one pocket in patent on the front. I was waiting to find a Greer somewhere but they are nowhere to be found.
The Clio I would say is fine for a woman of any age. They aren't too trendy looking. I love my Tutu. They are very quality bags. Did you get yours from Gryson? The Clio and Layla were on sale at Adasa awhile back for like 900 and something.

I actually was having a difficult time in deciding on either the clio or the tutu. They are very simular. I love the red! What a stunning bag.

There was a tutu at Adasa in Military, which I waited too long to decide. I went looking for another one but only found it in Black.

I received an email that Adasa is now CoutourCandy. Did not see anything that I wanted. Wished Adasa had sent out an email telling us they were going out of business.

Berta...Saks has a Chocolate Tutu on sale for 900+

I love both bags. I guess you need to decide if you like the east/west look and 2 pockets instead of one. But that sale might make up your mind for you.
