Velvet dilemma!! Help!

That is tough as they all look beautiful. I personally like the YSL one because it looks expensive and can be both dressy and casual. The shape of the Gucci looks very casual but it suits you heaps. I would go for either the green YSL or the green Gucci.

So torn! They're all so gorgeous! I'll have to go back and try the ysl one again. Thank you[emoji173]️
Which one do you think looks best on you and is unlike anything in your collection? I think the color of the petrol Gucci looks best on you but am unsure if the silhouette of the camera is flattering given the picture of you wearing the taupe.
I had a similar dilemma as although I have leather marmonts, I was never really interested in the velvets until the taupe came out this season. It took me a several weeks of trying on various styles to finally discover the best fit. Originally, I assumed I wanted the taupe camera as I had decided against the leather flaps when I bought my pearly stud leather camera marmont; however, for me I didn't find the velvet cameras as impressive or flattering on me. I then shifted to the flaps, but was unsure if I preferred the mini or small in petrol, pink or taupe. I briefly considered the velvet toy loulou, but opted against it for a variety of reasons. Ultimately, I decided on the small velvet marmont flap.... in the raspberry pink as it was just more beautiful and surprisingly versatile on me than the taupe (which in that size, I liked my brown pepper SL Niki better.)
Good luck!
I don't have any brown purses, so I thought the taupe would be perfect with the creams and nudes I'm into wearing this season, but I was kinda surprised at how chunky the camera bag is in real life? I agree that it isn't the most flattering on me since it hits pretty low when it isn't cross body
if it was a little smaller and shorter it would be perfect !As for the blue, I was unexpectedly drawn to that color after I saw it on the shelf... I have NOTHING like that color in my collection either!
Can I ask what you didn't like about the velour loulou ? I'm really considering that one as well as the blue camera bag
YSL but only because I am more partial to the shape and I agree that it can be dress up or down. I think velvet requires structure
I decided against the velvet loulou currently as I didn't want a permanent inside divider as I find that a bit limiting in my other toy loulous and medium colleges in my collection. I also found the velvet small marmont flap to be more versatile in that regard and overall style-wise (dress up/down and all season).I don't have any brown purses, so I thought the taupe would be perfect with the creams and nudes I'm into wearing this season, but I was kinda surprised at how chunky the camera bag is in real life?

But who knows, I may revisit the velvet loulou again come sale season as I find myself perpetually adding and removing it from my wishlist.
Tough one! I think tan bags are hard to come by (I’m waiting for a tan leather YSL to come out with the monogram logo in gold hardware) so there’s a vote towards that but at the same time I think any YSL is a more classic bag than the Gucci marmont. I vote the Lou Lou for that reason. I think it’ll be a bag you’ll still love in a decade.
I agree! I'm into the whole nude and beige clothing look right now and I've been looking for a beige bag to go with my outfits.. But I tried the Gucci on the other day and I didn't realize how chunky it is? It looks really clunky on me
I already ordered the beige and it's supposed to arrive tomorrow. I might exchange it for the ysl loulou
