3.1 Phillip Lim 'Pashli' Bag...Anyone?

[Meaghanb123]

I'm looking into getting the medium size for fall but can't decide between the taupe and black.... both are classics and I wear more black so I lean towards the black but the taupe just looks so fabulous! My only concern would be fading with the taupe over time...

I have had mine (in amber so a lighter brownish yellow color) since February and I use it a lot and so far I have not noticed any fading at all.

Thanks to everyone in this thread, you were all imperative in helping my descion - I just bought a Phillip Lim pashli bag in the large size in Rust, and REALLLLLLY like it. I was afraid it would be really massive (I'm only 5'4"), but it doesn't feel any bigger than my Mulberry Mitzy tote which I use every day. The colour is lovely - it's looks like a beautifully oaky brown in my opinion.
Can't wait to use it! I got it from Labels Most Wanted at the bargin price after lusting after it on their website for a few weeks, and it's brank spankin' new. Pictures to follow.

Who else is loving all the new Pashlis this season? I have taken a bit of a break from Lim over the last few months and have converted to Alexander Wang as of recent; however once I saw the new colors this season, I am FOR SURE making a pit stop bag to Lim!
Here are a few of my favorite pieces from this seasons new releases:

Black mini with silver hardware:

Grey mini with silver hardware:

Oil slick (iridescent) medium/mini with gunmetal hardware:


And last but not least, my new HG that I am actually seriously considering buying in both sizes (medium and mini!) because I love it that much...
Black and cream with gunmetal hardware:


Anyone else drooling right now besides me? LOL. I have a bit of a dilemma on my hands as far as choosing between all of the beautiful options this season, and will follow this post up with another shortly in hopes that I might receive some feedback/help. For now, I will proceed to mop up the floor below me! Hehe.

***EDIT: Actually looking back at the photos I posted on my ipad, I realized the first bag is purple (thought it was black).

I'm a sucker for a good grey and that is an amazing grey. Too bad I've already bought one grey bag this year and have another on pre-order.

I like it! But don't think I would get it bc it is too similar to my Celine Luggages

Agree.

 

[ferrylights]

^me too

Congrats! Btw I love the mitzy too, I have one in butter

Mitzy's are so underrated, I would love one in that colour!

 

[ferrylights]

Look who I took to work today! I bought this off Labels Most Wanted and couldn't be more stoked. It's big, but I actually don't think its much bigger than my Mulberry Mitzy, just way more structured.
I hope it will soften up a little bit with time.

Sup all! 👋
Ok, so as I noted in my post yesterday I need some advice. I am in the process of deciding which Pashli will be my next acquisition and can't seem to make up my mind. I have narrowed it down between these two:


I am completely obsessed with this black/cream color but cannot for the life of me pick which one I should get - The mini or the medium?
A little background info:
Back in February, my BF took me to NYC for our ten year anniversary and took me shopping on 5th ave which was amazing. He wound up getting me my prized medium Pashli in cracked leather which meant so much to me, as he is NOT into luxury material possessions, thinks my addiction for handbags is a bit crazy and excessive, and he has never spent this type of money on bag before (We aren't normally very lavish with gift giving, but this was a very special occasion). This bag is not only gorgeous, but completely represents my style and is by far my favorite bag that I own. I have purchased other Pashlis since but haven't touched the medium version because I reach for the cracked leather version more because it means so much to me. One of the Pashlis purchased after my HG, was a studded mini that I use very often but only on weekends or if I need to be hands free.

I know that I would absolutely use the medium more then the mini, as it would be an everyday bag but could also see that mini getting a lot of use as well. I would love to buy both but think it might be a little excessive. If I go with the medium, it sounds silly but I kinda feel like I would be cheating on my HG! Ironically the medium that I bought after my HG was the same exact style as the photos above, but the colors are more taupe and white (even though it says black and white on the tag). I bought the bag preloved from eBay but when it arrived it had more wear then I expected, in addition to being more taupe then black (I was expecting it to be black and white). I got a good deal on it which is why I decided to keep it, but that has also effected my wanting to use the bag. Still to this day have never used it since I bought it, wishing that it was black and white instead of taupe. So you can understand my excitement to see that there is actually now a TRUE black and white version! Woo hoo!! Lol. Thinking of getting rid of the taupier version and getting the new medium instead, but not sure.

If you have read through my entire novel of a post, I commend you! Lol. I would truly appreciate any feedback and opinions since I can't make up my mind and would love to hear from an unbiased source who understands my crazy handbag obsession. Which should I choose and why? TIA everyone!!

I understand. My SO bought me my HG, so anything else that may impact my frequency of using it makes me feel guilty. My infatuation with purses will always find me looking at what's new; they're like art to me. Yes, while there may be one singular piece I covet, I'm not simply going to have only that piece. There's no harm in having multiple bags, even though my debit card has seen better days.

Get what you really want. If possible, I'd suggest seeing them in person. You may find you love the details on one more than the other.

If I were you I would go for the black and white in the medium size, you wouldn't be cheating but I get what you mean, just sounds like the medium would get more use in the long run. Another option, sell the taupe/black you got on ebay that you never wore and buy both the medium and small, worth it if you are going to wear the black and white small and medium.


Good luck deciding!! Also you should post a "Pashli collection" pic I want to see these beauties!
