Definitely the tan! I loooove this tan color. It is so versatile and classy. It will go with so much more than the lilac, which is also pretty, but not really a “staple” color.Hi all,
After a really terrible and disappointing VC experience recently (which dragged on for nearly a month) where l ‘tried’ and failed to buy a mini peekaboo, the bag has played on my mind to the point where now l am considering buying it straight from Fendi to avoid any kind of repeat of this last experience. The bag l wanted off Vestiaire is no longer available on the Fendi website so l have narrowed it down to the following two bags -
1. Lilac Mini Iconic (Selleria)
2. Brown Mini Iconic
I was originally looking for a nice brown or burgundy peekaboo as l don’t currently have any brown bags and was looking for the perfect autumn/winter bag. I’m not sure on this shade of brown though. Does it look like tan (which l like) or is it too orange? What do you think of this shade? I don’t want a dark brown shade, but wonder if this is a bit too chestnut or dare l say it ... diarrhoea coloured? Am l being silly? I wish l could go to a store to look at it in person but that is not currently possible for me due to distance and Covid.
I see the lilac bag as more of a spring/summer bag because it is so light and fresh looking. I do really love the colour on this although l expect that l would need to be more careful with it than the brown one due to colour transfer. I have some protective spray, does anyone know if that helps stop colour transfer on this type of leather?
I would want to use the bag frequently as an everyday type bag that will last me years. I love the design of the Peekaboo, particularly in the mini size, and love that it is a classic bag which won’t go out of style. This is how l will justify the cost to myself
Anyway, l feel torn between these two bags. Which one do you prefer and which do you think you would buy if you were me?

Thanks, yes, it’s sooo much harder when you can’t see them in person isn’t it. Thanks for the link, l didn’t see that one when l was researching the bag. It looks really lovely in the video and l can now tell that it will match the colour of my favourite boots. Having said that l still love the contrast stitching and the colour of the lilac one so still trying to figure it out lol.
Yes, exactly, thanks for helping me work out what the issue is. My head is telling me tan and my heart is saying lilac. In reality they are both gorgeous bags and l’m sure l’ll be overjoyed with either of them. l think l’ve just l’ve just been worrying about whether l’ll end up regretting the bag l end up getting.
Thanks Firstfullsteps, yeah sorry, l meant more that l wouldn’t want to just keep the peekaboo as a special occasion bag but one that l could wear regularly and rotate in with my other bags.
Thanks, yeah, l think you’re right that it will work much better with my wardrobe than the lilac (even though the lilac is so pretty).
I’ve really been going back and forth on this over the last few days and l’ve come to the conclusion that l won’t truly know until l’ve seen the bag irl so l’m just going to have to order one of the bags. I’m going to order the tan bag as l think that once l’ve actually seen it and tried it on with my wardrobe then l’ll want to keep it. However, if l don’t love the tan or find myself still undecided then l still have the option of returning it for the lilac.
Feeling really excited now l’ve decided what to do. Yay
Off to order the bag now Will post some photos when it arrives.
Good plan! Let us know!!Thanks, yeah, l think you’re right that it will work much better with my wardrobe than the lilac (even though the lilac is so pretty).

Hello guys, does any of you own Peekaboo ISEEU Medium or have seen it in real life? Our government has closed all the shops, so I can’t go to Fendi boutique to check it myself.
I’m definitely getting Fendi Peekaboo for my birthday, but I’m still undecided about the exact model. I had my eyes set firmly on Peekaboo Medium in Dove Grey
but then Peekaboo ISEEU was introduced and now I’m torn between these two.
ISEEU looks more modern and it seems it will hold shape better, it’s more structured than the traditional Peekaboo Medium.
Sigh. Now I’m back at the beginning. What do you guys think? Which one would you choose?

Hi Cherryinbloom,
I have seen both in real life, the leather is still pretty similar and its the method of stitching that gives it a different shape. Unfortunately , as the ISEEU is a newer model , there arent many used ones to take reference of how the leather and new silhouette will season over time.
The iconic bar (tortoiseshell or gold in the ISEEU) still remains, but i think what is essentially different is that the custom pockets add that personalized bit to the bag. The tortoiseshell finishes are iconic to the dove grey/custom event and I would still pick that over the ISEEU because of the tortoiseshell and the custom pockets doesn't do much for me as i have a custom one. Perhaps one of your deciding factors could also be between the options of the bar and the custom pockets to help you with your decision. If the bar aint important, you could also consider the essentially, which is lighter
Hope you are able to make your decision !

ill be very frank to say that im not appreciating the iseeu models. i would still pick a classic peekaboo.
I didn't see the iseeu in person; but the dove grey tortoiseshell is beautiful in real life !
