I cannot decide???

They are both beautiful, but you could not PAY me to carry a velvet bag! Suede is bad enough, but velvet? Maybe for a small evening clutch, but not a daily use bag.
 
I think I like the 2nd one better... I love the little coffer-like locking mechanism. It's just so unique. The other bag is pretty, but the 2nd is so unique you will love it forever. Just my opinion!
