hmmmm hard to say. Greige is more distressed, like marble to me, the natural isn't very distressed at all. I guess for tan, brown, greens, the natural, for blacks, blues, etc. greige, but really I think either color would pretty much go with anything. I love them both, but if let me put it this way, if I wasn't that into neutrals, and I wanted only one and had to choose, I would just choose the bag that appealed to me more in either color.Lovely conquests! Which color do you prefer: griege or natural?
