Pomme Reade-- too young?

[sparkle67]

Hi all,

It's been awhile since I've posted in here... so many new names !

I bought a pomme reade yesterday and I'm having second thoughts as I'm wondering if the bag is meant for younger girls-- I'm soon to be 40. What are your thoughts? Do any of you have this one and do you love it??

I will be 35 soon and I just bought a Reade. I really like it nice bag that can be casual or dressy. I personally carry my bronze with browns and jeans. I would like to get more in different colors, perhaps a bronze or pearle as well as a pomme.

No way, my mom has some vernis bags and she carries them well (she's in her 50's). I think it's perfect, everyone needs some spice in their bag collection.

Hi! I have a reade pm, and I'm 22 (still kinda young ), but I don't think it's a young looking bag...you can try the darker colors, which I find very sophisticated and mature looking. It's just really tiny. I notice that older women tend to carry large bags, and a couple I know personally avoid tiny bags...my aunt thinks the reade is a nice bag, but it's just too small.

LV doesn't have an age limit, but it's how you feel about carrying the bag.

Edit: oops, my bad, I got confused with the first comment. You're getting the pomme...nice choice!!!

 

[sparkle67]

Yeah-- it is tiny and that's probably what makes me think young?

I think that if you like it wear it!

That's the only thing I can really think of...if you can minimize how much you carry, I really don't see why you shouldn't get the reade.

I was wanting a smaller bag that I could carry on the weekends and to dinner... (but not too dressy)

 

[Lvbabydoll]

^^ Then it'd be perfect!

 

[rileygirl]

^^^Yes, perfect for those occasions when you don't need to carry your house with you. I like the fact that it forces me to minimalize.

No, it is not too young for you. I saw someong in her early 50s wearing a Pomme Houston the other day and she looked absolutely gorgous with that color.

I carry my pomme reade when I just quickly run out and need just a few items. I love it!

 

[sparkle67]

^^^ yeah- that's what I was thinking...

I'd say absolutely perfect for such an occasion, no matter how old you are

IMO, You are never too old or young to be fashionable (weather its shoes, clothing, or bags )
