Default Please help me pick a color for Large Single! Pink vs. Violet
I'm borrowing these pics from other members that captured the colors much better than what's posted on dept store websites, hope that's okay!

Please help me decide, Pink or Violet? TIA!

The first two pics are Pink from Fall 09:




And the next two are Violet, also from Fall 09:

While the pink is very pretty, the violet rocks! and I'm only a wee bit partial. I love mine!

I chose violet also. I love the navy stitching - it gives it an extra dimension to the bag.

I also voted for violet. The pink is beautiful but the violet makes my heart jump! I also think the violet is more versatile.

Violet!! The contrast stitching looks so amazing! And I think the color is more versatile. The pink is, of course, gorgeous as well though. Can't go wrong with either color

violet all the way! I saw both at the boutique and the violet was stunning. such a vibrant color. If I didn't have the grey, violet would've easily been my choice.

Grey! (Loving it in the first photo ).

OK, if it can't be grey...well...I like the pink color better, yet I agree that the violet might be easier to use...but...that pink it's such a happy color...could elevate the mood...though I love purple...but not that stitching...hmm...

pink!

The violet looks more like a fuschia (as compared to the stam in the fourth pic, which seems more a classic violet/purple). I agree with the previous poster that the contrast stitching on the violet is a bit of a distraction. That said, I like the "violet" better than the pink.
