That's DEFINITE no then!

Tell me, would you be debating a choc bays if the price hikes weren't on the horizon?

bluecat_00 · Oct 21st, 2009, 07:48 AM

I was going to get choc when the offer on the oak was too good to miss!

flyvetjo · Oct 21st, 2009, 08:08 AM

aah I see. You need to grab a choc one then!

maplecottage · Oct 21st, 2009, 08:15 AM

Printed choc would be really lovely BC! You like your bags with a bit of a twist, so I think printed would be perfect for you!

I think that a Chocolate Bayswater is mandatory. Personally, I prefer the "plain one".

ratrat · Oct 21st, 2009, 12:49 PM

Wow Bluecat - good luck with your decision... I'm no help here but looking forward to seeing Coco & new Bays side by side pics in due course!?

Lady Farquar · Oct 21st, 2009, 01:30 PM

Go for it Bluecat!

I've been using my choc printed Bays for work virtually every day since I got it and personally, don't notice the weight (though mine was from outlet & is lined - not sure if that's because the leather is thinner?)

It got drenched yesterday but I didn't bat an eyelid - think it hides marks even better than 'plain' leather IMO

I too can't keep it on my shoulder when wearing a coat, but tend to hold my bags over my forearm (or handheld) anyway so doesn't worry me

Good luck in your decisions

(PS. can you use your voucher at outlets? If so, it could be worth ringing them to see if they have any printed ones in - that's what happened with mine!)

How about getting the chocolate but the printed one - it really is lovely IRL. Failing that I'm on a mission to get someone to buy the coral croc bayswater - its absolutely gorgeous. And yes I know coral isn't everyone's colour but it looks so yummy - and I'm on the sofa!

TheaBerry · Oct 21st, 2009, 02:00 PM

chocolate printed bays sounds lovely!

hulahoop · Oct 21st, 2009, 02:47 PM

I think you should get the choc bays (plain)... you can never go wrong with the classics in oak and choc. The choc bays will be good for a/w whereas the oak bays you have will be better in dryer weather conditions.

bluecat_00 · Oct 21st, 2009, 03:10 PM

You lot are useless - lol. I am now enabled to get a choc printed, a plain choc, a choc e/w, a mitzy hobo, a bays clutch and a printed coral bays. I need to lie down.
