Okey..so here is where I stand so far. Leaning towards the pearl grey, and then my SA tell me about this new bag that just came in...the Cynthia in blossom with silver hardware. So now I'm back where I started. Even considering to sell my pale pink, buy the pearl grey selma AND the blossom. Or...just the blossom. It is soooo gorgeous, and I am so so a lost cause...

I love the image of your SA in the mirror taking the pic. Now, I remember you admiring the Cynthia's when I took the spy pics. So, you should definitely get it. You also love your pale pink studded cross body so I would keep it too. Two totally different bags in different colors. You have been indecisive about the pearl grey Selma so it probably isn't love......:smile1:

So true...I am wearing my PP today, and I realize I can't let this bag go. I like how it shifts in color depending on the light, and I like the size. Ubo commented on the rings making sounds when hanging on the sides. Never really thought about that. The Cynthia is a medium too, and quite a bit more expensive than the PG Selma. And it's seasonal. I wish I could afford buying both at the same time. I hate to choose. The Selma is a beautiful bag, and the sensible choice. A bag to be used all year. The pink will be a SS bag, and I already have the Pale Bue and pale pink as seasonal bags. But then again. ..I have the Heather Grey Specchio hamilton. Do I need two grey bags...? Somebody please make me win the lottery!

Yes, since you already have a grey bag, you should go with your heart. Don't be practical. You already have your year-round bags.....[emoji3]

What a dilemma!!! Okay, let's go by bag instead of color this time...

Selma - You have a medium Selma messenger in both pale blue and a studded pale pink. Now you also want a Selma satchel. I say large, but that's up to you. The messengers are for when you have fewer things to carry and want to be hands free. The satchel will be more for every day, unless you want to make it a seasonal bag. The colors you already have are seasonal, so you may want to go with a year-round color for the satchel.

Cynthia - You are looking at a medium in blossom pink with shw. Great color and hardware! But you already have your studded pale pink medium Selma messenger. Hmmm. :thinkin: Are you looking to add another pink? I try to limit my seasonal colors to only a few bags.

Large heather grey specchio Hamilton tote - This is a great bag, by the way. :graucho: I don't compare my large totes to my handbags. The large Hamilton tote is truly a carry-all. I wouldn't really compare it to my Selmas. Grey is a great color for your Hamilton and because grey is a year round neutral, you could certainly get a different shade of grey, pearl grey, for one of your other handbags. You also mentioned before that grey is a staple in your wardrobe, so having a couple shades of grey bags would be fine. I've done that with my browns.

Take a look at your entire collection and determine how many seasonal colors you really want. If there's room for more, then get the blossom pink Cynthia. If not, then get the pearl grey Selma. And keep that studded pale pink medium Selma messenger if you really love it. :smile1:

Pale pink and blossom are so different but I can see why you wouldn't want two different pinks. I think they're so different cuz one is ghw and one is shw.

I agree that you shouldn't get the grey Selma cuz you have a grey bag and you aren't really in love with it. What about the Selma colorblock that you were leaning towards? Maybe you can get that, sell the pale pink (since you already have a pale pink wallet) and then get the blossom Cynthia so we can be bag twins !!!

That way you get the Selma and the blossom Cynthia !
 
Also I do think blush is a light version of dark dune. I compared it to my dark dune Selma in store and it's def different but same color family.

Thanks for the comparison pic! It is a stunning color... Would love to see it in RL. Still a bit in the blue about what bag to choose, but I think...after going a few rounds with myself...that it is enough to have the fuchsia and the PP as my pink bags. I have three seasonal bags, so my next bag should be an all - round bag I think. So I guess I'm back to the pearl grey Selma;)

Norwegian Girl, I know you love the Hamilton, but I think you're going to adore the Selma satchel once you get your hands on one. I don't think you'll regret getting a year-round color for your first Selma satchel because you'll probably end up wanting to carry it year-round. That was my experience, and I ended up with three!!! :D
