Default Anybody bought Muse raspberry? Thoughts?

I just ordered large muse in raspberry today over the phone without knowing what it looks like. I just checked other thread and on the website. Grrrrrr....I'm not a big fan of pink. I thought it's going to be pinkish red but it's bright pink. I may have to cancel my order. If you have it, do you like yours? Do you guy prefer the watermelon color? I think I might exchange it into a medium tribute instead. Sigh....

I have the fushia patent Muse in large ... I think fushia is the raspberry? I love mine. It's a deep fushia, not hot pink. I hope you love it when you get it!

It's not hot pink or Barbie pink, but it's definitely in the pink family. It's a deep shade so you'll have to see what you think when it arrives. Between the raspberry and watermelon, I prefer the raspberry although neither one really speaks to me personally. If you like some color, though, especially for the summer, you may find it to be a great shade that will really pop against your wardrobe.

I'm not really into pop colors. Today I called the store and I decided to get a tribute tote instead. The SA is very patient and extremely helpful. She insisted that I would love the color but I know that I wouldn't like it as I love dark colors. Oh well, we'll see when the package got here.

I just got one from the sale, I really love it. I think the color makes the bag a little more casual looking.

Mine is on its way - scheduled to be here on Monday. Eep, I can't wait! How true is it to the picture on YSL.com (listed as Bordeaux)?

Nevermind, it just arrived! It is absolutely gorgeous. EXACTLY the color I was hoping. It's a beautiful muavey-plum pink. Very true to the color as it appears online, maybe a hair darker. It will be cute for summer, but I think it's dark enough I can carry it year round. Love the gold hardware with it. LOVE!

Oh I'd love to see the pic. As I mentioned before that I exchanged my muse at last minute to a tribute tote. I just got my package yesterday and she's gorgeous! I'll put a picture on the resource thread soon.

I purchased my YSL Muse in Bordeaux recently and I love love love it! I love the muse and I love it more because of the color. It's not a hot hot pink type of color...more on the magenta side, a darker shade of pink. I'm a girly-girl and I love it! It makes a casual outfit, a white t-shirt and jeans make sooo effortlessly chic. It gives you a modern edge. It can easily transition to fall so you can wear it all year-round! I'm in love!!!!

I am thinking about buying it. My coat is red though. That's probably look awful together. What do you think?
