Which one would you pick?

Roxana · Apr 16th, 2008, 06:27 PM

and why?
Please help me pick between the LV rosewood and the Burberry bag! Which one would be better for the long run?
Thanks in advance!!

LV.

My reasons are it doesn't seem you can go wrong with an LV and that style is very nice and unusual. I don't know how the vernis wears (LV ladies would know) but the Burberry is a lot like other bags style-wise right now. And that rosewood wouldn't get confused with anything else, but maybe it wouldn't hold up to lots of wear?

But it still would be my choice (don't have even 1 LV but someday ...) because I love the vernis and the colors. Good luck with your choice, lucky girl!

I def. say go with the LV. I feel like you will get way more use out of it- it also is much more timeless and classic than the burberry IMO. The burberry just has too much going on for me. Plus- the vernis is just goooorggeous!!

^yeah that is also my concern, that the manor is not that 'timeless'. Although I think the design is easy. Although I'm also a bit worried about the LV vachetta... I've had both bags in my mind for ages (at least that's how it feels) but I just can't seem to make the final decision...
Oh and btw, the burberry is prettier red IRL, the picture doesn't do it justice..

I much prefer the Burberry bag, the color is gorgeous and I love the shape!

burberry....no question for me.

I think the LV will probably have better resale value, but I prefer the Burberry looks-wise.

gsh · Apr 16th, 2008, 07:39 PM

i always tend to go with what looks most unusual (but classy at the same time). in this case the LV definitely is the head turner while the burnerry can blend in with the all the other brown bags. of course, if that is what you are going for then by all means the burberry.

i have to add though that normally i dont like shiny bags. it detracts from the material and ultimately you get inferior leather (if its leather at all). but then again i never understood the patent trend...

I'm honestly not a huge fan of either, but I prefer the LV.

LV Rosewood ~ I have in Amarante and I love it!

GirlFriday · Apr 17th, 2008, 01:29 AM

I like the color of the Burberry better and I think the design is more interesting.

i<3handbags · Apr 17th, 2008, 02:16 AM

Burberry

scarlett_2005 · Apr 17th, 2008, 02:47 AM

Def the LV.

dierregi · Apr 17th, 2008, 03:50 AM

I'd pick the Burberry. I love the color and the bag seems bigger than the LV. Besides, I don't like shiny, patent leather at all and the shape of that LV is definitely weird, sausage-like.
