Gucci and LV are by far my favourite- I almost bought another LV the other day (LV Galleria PM in Mono) but I'm *sooooooooooooo* sick of vachetta... and my Gucci collection is lacking.
My HOLY GRAIL bag is the Gucci Horsebit Hobo with the braided staps in black Guccisima leather. I just CAN'T justify spending $2500.00+ on the bag (I'm in Canada)... I know I can get at least 2 gorgeous bags for that price... I can't bring myself to do it.
So these are my choices:
To fulfill my Guccisima craving:
The large large hobo with engraved gucci script logo (in black guccisima)
OR
To fulfill my Pelham craving:
The Medium Pelham (w/ braided handles) in black GG fabric
These are my questions for you guys:
1. Braided Pelham owners... do the staps fray that easily? (I've seen quite a few complaints on here)
2. How's the GG canvas on this bag?... all the Gucci bags I own are from the travel/luggage section and are more then lightweight canvas with some leather and the signature green/red. Is it true it wears very easily? I have so many Gucci's from the luggage collection that none of them have experienced heavy use and were never an "everyday" bag.
3. How's the Guccisima leather.... does it stand the test of time? I have nothing Guccisima! I would really like to hear from the owners who've had a Guccisima piece for awhile.
4. What do you think of the hobo? Does anybody own this bag? Complaints/reviews...I've never seen anyone carrying this around here!
THANK YOU
...and if you think I should stick with the LV Galleria PM in Mono over these Guccis- don't hesitate to let me know (I plan on getting the Galleria sooner or later!)
