Help! Fendi Peekaboo or LV Capucines?

In a way, both bags are different takes on the Kelly. I prefer the peekaboo, it seems to have a modern, playful quality that the capucines does not. I have to admit, I'm not crazy about the way the LV logo is prominent in this bag -- if I were to buy an all-leather LV, I'd rather have the Sofia Coppola or the Soft Lockit. The peekaboo also looks lighter (though I don't know if it actually is lighter) -- I think it just seems less serious, while at the same time, seriously beautiful!

Fendi's craftsmanship is renowned, and some put their selleria bags right up there with Hermes. So, in terms of price, while it is certainly an expensive bag, I can understand the pricing in relation to other premiere brand bags. HTH.

Thanks, this helps a lot. Wow I didn't know Fendi's craftsmanship was so renowned. That is really cool and justifies the price.
 
Recently stopped in at Fendi to check out the Peekaboo. Very impressed! The Selleria is stunning. I love LV, so this is a tough one...but I prefer the Peekaboo to the Capucines.

I had not realized the longevity of the Peekaboo, as I knew nothing about Fendi until I stopped in. My SA was very knowledgable, and I learned quite a bit!
 
Oh what size did you end up getting? I'm definitely leaning towards the peekaboo!
I got the regular black selleria. I love it so much. It is about the size of the Hermes Kelly 32 cm. I have had a Kelly bag, but love my peekaboo more. I have not seen a large Peekaboo, but would like to try one on.
 
I guess I'm not in the minority after all! I really love the Peekaboo. It's so chic and timeless and exudes great style. I've never been a fan of Cappucines, sorry to say. Those large rings are off-putting, IMO.

krawford, if you don't mind my asking, what is it that makes you love the Peekaboo more than the Kelly?
