What a dilemma!

KittyKat65 · Sep 21st, 2009, 07:58 AM

PS1 all the way...

Advo · Sep 21st, 2009, 08:11 AM

LOL. I do love the PS1, but not the price. Mulberry at the very least, always have some somewhat reasonable prices.

miu miu1 · Sep 21st, 2009, 09:15 AM

I like the Mulberry

moi et mes sacs · Sep 21st, 2009, 01:02 PM

PS1 for sure

Advo · Sep 21st, 2009, 01:24 PM

Could you guys elaborate on why you like which bag? I really can't decide. I think the leather is probably better on the PS1 and I love it's shape and design. But it is most likely going to be more expensive than the Alexa (price unknown). But on the other hand, I love how the Alexa is like a more relaxed and casual version of the Bayswater. The Bay can be a bit formal because of its very structured shape, so the Alexa seems like a perfect choice for a more relaxed look.

oh my hard one... i love both but personally i would take the mulberry, i like the front more

Myblackbag · Sep 21st, 2009, 01:36 PM

I prefer the design of the Mulberry.

KittyKat65 · Sep 21st, 2009, 01:40 PM

I prefer the design of the PS1 and it has so many compartments to keep me organized. I can keep my wallet in the front compartment, checkbook in the zipper pocket behind the wallet and the rest of my stuff in the main compartment. I just think overall it is a much cooler, chicer look. Oh, and the leather is gorgeous and soft and slouchy. I have no regrets with spending big money on my PS1. And the PS1 can also be worn cross-body if you want to...

As for price, the medium PS1 is $1,595 and I can't imagine the Mulberry being too much less than that. The Bayswater is $1,000 and this looks bigger, so the difference would maybe be a couple of hundred dollars.

^I definitely agree with you that the PS1 looks more chic and cool. However, (LOL

) I also love the vintage-y look the Alexa has (in the Oak colour anyway). Decisions, decisions. I believe the Alexa can be worn crossbody too. I saw Alexa Chung wearing it crossbody, unfortunately the picture was pretty small, so I couldn't be bothered to post it.

I vote the Mulberry! I love the oak color and you know the leather will last! The design appeals to me more: slouchy chic.

greygirl · Sep 21st, 2009, 10:00 PM

I have a PS1 and looooove it

tatu_002 · Sep 21st, 2009, 10:15 PM

Ps1 :)

gidramom · Sep 22nd, 2009, 12:57 AM

Personally I like PS1. but I don't think it's a bag for everyone's style. Mulberry has more feminine looks. And I like their leather.

TrashedBride · Sep 22nd, 2009, 02:52 AM

The Alexa, for sure! I'm having serious baglust for that one, and I adore Mulberry full stop. I love Bays but yes, it can seem a bit formal - this is the perfect relaxed version.
