So I called Nordstroms today to see what they had left as far as MJ bags go. The SA told me she had three different quilted satchels left:
1. QUILTED SATCHEL, orig price $1395, sale price 829 - she says they have it in green and navy. She said it's very similar to the Stam except it only has the chain shoulder strap, no handles. She also said the bottom is a little more squared.
2. MINA QUILTED SATCHEL, orig price $1195, sale price 709.90 - They have this in Turquoise. Again, she said it has a single shoulder strap no handles. She said this is more of a shoulder bag than a satchel.
3. QUILTED STAM, Orig price $1550, sale price 929 - they have one left in a Mustard Yellow color
So I know what the Stam is - just don't think I like the Mustard color (also, $900+ is a little steep for me)
Where I'm confused is I can't figure out the other two bags are. I've seen pics of the Mina, and everywhere I've seen it, it's orig price was $1395, not 1195. So I thought maybe she confused the two bags and the first one is really the Mina. But then, what's the Quilted Satchel that's orig $1195? I can't find a bag like that anywhere. Honestly, that's more my price range ($709) so if it's not too different from the Mina or Stam, maybe I'll just get that one. Does anyone know which bag that could be?
Also, opinions on the Mina and the Satchels that don't have handles - are they very heavy? I really prefer to have a bag with handles & a shoulder strap, so not sure if I'd like carrying one of these - I've read that the chain strap starts to hurt after a while.
There's a Christian Louboutin bag that's also on sale for around the same price that I fell in love with a few weeks ago - I was thinking about just getting that bag, but then I started thinking about MJ and I haven't gotten a new MJ for quite some time. If they had a bag that I really liked, I thought maybe I should just get an MJ instead.
Decisions - decisions! I just wish I could buy them all!!!!!
