Hey Ladies, I found the dylan folding tote for $ 380 CAD online which is a zillion times better than the $ 950 CAD instores. I was debating whether to get it in Cognac or Persimmon. Any suggestions would be appriciate. Thanks!

Personally I like the persimmon - it's a real pop of color. But if you wear a lot of neutrals and want to play it safe, then I'd go with cognac.

I am a neutrals girl. Cognac!

While persimmon is GORGEOUS, I vote for the Cognac..I might be biased since I have it but I think you can wear it w/ more..good luck w/ your decision!!

Thanks for the input ladies. Im the most complicated person when it comes to decision making! Im leaning towards cognac since Im paranoid the persimmon might just be to much for me to handle.
I might just pop into Holt Renfrew one last time before I purchase!

My vote is for the Cognac. Though I liked the Persimmon "in theory" (I debated between a Persimmon and a Coconut Dylan Large Bowler) - the Coconut won out. The shiny gold hardware was a bit much with the Persimmon and I could not carry it off as well as others may.

Good luck with whatever you decide!

I have many colorful bags so it's nice to have a few neutrals. The cognac looks wonderful!
