I have the Sophie (cousin the the Eva) and I have it in DE. To me its more carefree and I'm not in love with the vachetta strap, and it can tend to get dirty. Either way I think its pretty in DE or Mono. Also look at your current collection to see if you want something in a different pattern. GLD
Tons of threads on this topic. It usually comes down to small plate (mono) vs. no vachetta (DE). I prefer the Mono Eva which I have, and the DE pochette NM.
I got both bc I couldn't make up my mind! But now I would probably go with the DE! Like the bigger plate more and it's carefree and easier to match an outfit with this print (for an evening bag - goes with everything), IMHO.. Let us know what you decide, GL
The large plate on the DE turned me off straight away. The one in store was even scratched! I love my Mono Eva so very much. Versatile, and understated. Good luck deciding Xx
