BV--beautifully made, soft leather that just gets softer, classic styling. I like the Muse too, but BV is so nice.

and the reason why i research this bag religiously is because it's been my dream bag for 1.5 years, lol.

do you like the black or brown more?

The Bottega is a true classic & very well made. I think the Muse will be a bit faddy (& I'm a huge YSL fan!)

 

[nadianostalgia]

Snowtire, thanks for the picts. I would get the black in large.
Park Ave Princess, appreciate your feedback especially becasue you are a YSL fan!

that is GREAT. show us pics!!

i think the campana in large really does look great, but i'm too short to wear it nicely. aiii...so i'm still debating whether i should get the dark brown or the black in the smaller size.

did you see the new Sloane bag in Limo color (light gray), it is sooo pretty.

I agree in that I think the Muse will be a classic bag in the future. It may be a little faddy now, but that will fade. I still think the shape (especially of the large size one, not the oversized) is classic and will endure.

That said, I think I would vote for the Bottega if you have the choice. BV's are sooooo luxurious!
