Love them but can't keep them all

Pandora11 · Jul 24th, 2008, 08:06 PM

Hi gals,

Having bought quite a handful of handbags this month, I've to prioritize which ones I really love most and let some go.

Sadly, it comes to very hard decision...my two downtown. I have them in ivory patent and metallic gunmetal. Which one should I keep? My original thought is that to keep the ivory one. It requires min cares comparing to other white bags and I never have a white bag before. Until I saw the metallic one and well...I don't have any metallic either. (except one Calvin Klein in gold with the chain too heavy. I cricked my neck and hurt my shoulder. So..it's not counted. Another reason is that in the past few years I bought only big bags. Right now my lifestyle and priority have changed. I can get away with small/medium ones. If I'll buy another downtown, I'm thinking about small or mini.

So...what do you think?

I say keep the metallic...it is more timeless and white patent turns yellow.

I love the metallic gunmetal downtown! It's a great bag and you can wear it all year long. The ivory patent is pretty much a summer bag.
