Default how much does the avocado differ from lawn green?

oops, forgot to ask in the last thread...having just bought the lawn green French Nanny, I would love an olive or avocado purse, but this lawn green turned out to be a lot darker than I thought, and an avocado one may not be much different. Has anyone seen both side by side and can tell me if there is much difference, and is it worth buying the avocado? thanks!!

If you thought that the lawn green was too dark then you wouldn't like the avocado. The avocado is darker/deeper. Lawn is more spring green.

I think the lawn is a much brighter green. I have the avocado, it is definately a darker olivey green. I posted pics on the boogie pic 2008 thread and they are very accurate to the true color.

I guess I have to wrestle with my conscience and say "do I really need both colors?" :)

^^ Do you wear green bags a LOT!? Cause if you do; you could perhaps justify it... they have different trim also. I know for me, lawn will do just fine for my green bag needs.

Being a green lover I definitely think they are different enough to use both. To me Lawn is exactly the color of a Granny Smith Apple. It's a bag that I personally wouldn't carry in Fall/Winter (that's just me). Whereas Avocado is a deep olive-y color and could be used year round. Plus the Avocado has a lighter trim like someone else mentioned.
