Sex Bomb or French Nanny?

HauteMama · Aug 5th, 2008, 12:12 AM

Hi, it's the president of your local Indecisives Anonymous Club! I originally wanted a LRC, but then decided I liked the Crunch leather so much that I ought to stick with it. And I'm obsessed with grape; I need a purple bag!

I've wanted a Sex Bomb forever, but the modeling pictures are confusing. Sometimes it looks perfect and sometimes it looks really big. It also has a magnetic snap top, right? That always makes me nervous, especially on an east-west bag. Plus things fall out if the bag falls over!

The French Nanny is almost an ideal bag for me, and I adore my apricot. But do I want two bags in the same style before I have even tried other styles? Then again, I want my purple bag to be a fall/winter staple and I know the Nanny could provide that.

So, what do I do? Sex Bomb or French Nanny?

I love the Sex Bomb, too, but I'm must not convinced it'd be a comfy shoulder bag ....

... so I voted for the French Nanny.

I vote for the sexbomb, but I love the velvet leather of the Little Red Chavette. I'm thinking of getting it in emerald but I want to see the color swatch first.

Well, I voted for the French Nanny just because I love mine to death. I ama trying to stay away from double straps these days, and the French Nanny is a very comfortable bag.

I voted for the French Nanny. I have two and love them. I love the look of the Sex Bomb but I have tried them on in stores several times and it's not a comfortable bag for me personally. I also think the pictures on MHB of the grape French Nanny are gorgeous!!!

I was pleasantly surprised to see that the sex bomb was back in the Fall colors! I guess I was under the impression that LRC in the Velvet leather was taking over that style for the season. I love the sex bomb and I think every Tano lover needs atleast one in their collection!

I love my sexbomb and I do think it is a comfortable shoulder bag; that said... it probably wont fit over a winter coat of any sort unless your arms are teeeeeeeeny lol. THAT said, I still voted for it because how hot is that! A grape sexbomb, mEow! You can't go wrong with the french nanny though!

HauteMama · Aug 5th, 2008, 03:54 PM

Hmm, maybe then I ought to go with the FN in Grape so I can really use it and then see what I can pick up in a Sex Bomb at end of season sales - but I don't want black or brown and that is probably all that will be left!

I'd love to just get both, but we have a trip to the Netherlands in October and I really want to have enough spending money to buy a bag there, too (anyone know any Dutch designers?)!

French Nanny, because it's a style you already know you love to pieces. I love my Sex Bomb, which I carry as a shoulder bag, and highly recommend it, but you can't beat a style you know and love.

I love my French Nanny, it's perfect! I ordered a Sexbomb and sent it back due to the short straps. You have to be super small to wear that bag comfortably on your shoulder!

I voted for French Nanny!! Such a comfy, simple hobo. It would look stunning in raspberry or pom!

I don't think there's anything wrong with owning 2 bags of the same style/different color if you love the bag! So i vote for French Nanny.
